trained.”

    “All the interesting traits have been bred out of me.”

    “They’re out. It’s the damn answering machine.”

    ‘Yes, I’m talking to you. I believe you’re the only Sparky in the house.”

    “Unconditional love? I don’t think so.”

    “My God, will I ever stop falling for that fake throw?”

    “Oh, I would bite, but only if the cause were just.”

    “Not guilty, because puppies do these things.”

    “Thanks for asking, but no. My frisbee days are behind me.”

A CKNOWLEDGEMENTS
    I should have a short-haired, mixed-breed dog named Buster.
    Instead we have a Maltese named Chloe. When I looked up the Maltese breed years ago the first word that caught my eye was
     “aristocrat.” And that’s our Chloe.
    Chloe, to her credit, gets on well with Buster Buster being imaginary. And Buster for his part is a marvelous model for the
     pup cartoons, while Chole waits impatiently for royal portrait that she is sure is her due.
    So I want to thank Buster for his help in pulling these cartoons and this book into being, as well as Michael Sand, Jeannie
     Schulz, George Booth, Bob Mankoff, Lee Lorenz, Anne Hall, Martha Kaplan, Michael Wolff, and the good people at The Cartoon
     Bank. In the Heartland, special thanks go as always to Ramoth and to p.a. Carol Jonas (who finds things).
    Chloe was no help at all.

    “I think the little dogs that you draw are funniest cartoons that anyone has been doing in recent years. I keep hoping that
     someone will collect them all in book form someday.”
