The Diary of Snubs, Our Dog

This Sunday strip narrates a single day through the perspective of Snubs, a mischievous terrier, as he accompanies a boy digging potatoes in the garden. The strip employs sequential panels with handwritten captions and speech balloons to convey both human dialogue and the dog's interior monologue. Through six scenes, we follow Snubs from his initial enthusiasm through his discovery that potato digging interests him far more than the task at hand—leading to a climactic pile of unearthed potatoes that frustrates the adult supervisor. The strip exemplifies the visual language emerging in 1920s newspaper comics: recurring characters, expressive line work, and the narrator's voice establishing personality and humor through perspective rather than punchlines alone.
