The Diary of Snubs, Our Dog
· 1925

This strip narrates events from a dog's perspective, following Snubs through a series of domestic encounters—a scuffle with a friend, the sudden arrival of a new pup, and an invitation to join the household on an outing. The six-panel layout uses speech balloons and sequential imagery to convey action and emotional beats. The anthropomorphic protagonist observes human behavior with bemused detachment, a common device in 1920s newspaper comics. The drawing style employs bold line work and expressive postures typical of the era's dailies and Sunday pages, where recurring animal characters provided humor through contrast between animal nature and human social convention.
