The Diary of Snubs, Our Dog

This Sunday comic strip presents a dog's perspective on a rain-spoiled Saturday outing. The narrative unfolds across six panels in a grid layout, with handwritten diary text anchoring each scene. Snubs anticipates playing ball with "the boss and his friends," but a downpour forces the game indoors, where water damage threatens the equipment. When the rain clears, the boss abruptly ditches Snubs to visit someone inside, leaving the disappointed dog to wade in puddles alone. The strip employs anthropomorphic humor—rendering canine disappointment through direct address to the reader—while maintaining the visual conventions of newspaper comics: distinct panels, speech balloons, consistent character design, and sequential storytelling that builds comic effect through narrative delay.
