The Diary of Snubs, Our Dog

This Sunday strip narrates a day in the life of Snubs, a small dog, through his own perspective. The comic employs the visual conventions that became standard in newspaper comics: sequential panels with speech balloons, recurring animal characters, and escalating gags built on a simple premise—dogs trying to trick their owner into outdoor play. The strip's narrative voice, rendered in Snubs's first-person account, connects panels across the page as the dogs' scheme unfolds from backyard conference through alley adventure to the Boss's eventual discovery. The loose pen work and expressive character poses show the influence of early animation and illustrative cartooning that shaped newspaper comic language in the 1920s.
