Garden Mayhem Unleashed: Sophie's Hilarious Digging Adventure in 'Dog Eat Doug' Comic Strip

The first panel of this comc strip shows Sophie, the chocolate labrador, telling her dad that there may or may not have been a raccoon in the garden
In the second panel of this comic strip, Sophie tells her dad that she may or may not have chased him off.
In the last panel of the comic strip we pull back and see that Sophie is covered in plants, dirt and leaves. She tells her dad that for sure, he's going to have to re-plant the peppers.

I have a lot of garden related comic strips. Now Sophie was never destructive in the yard. However, our foster dogs destroyed my entire irrigation system. I tried keeping up with the repairs, but in the end I ditched the tubes and the timer and went back to using a hose.

The caption in the first panel of this comic strip reads, "another one", and we see a bald tennis ball.
The comic strip's second panel reads, "I wonder why Sopie loves to chew off all the fuzz?" as we see dad picking up the bald tennis ball.
The thrid panel of this comic strip shows all the tennis ball fuzz on top of Doug's bald head. Sophie says, "Oh, ya. It looks completely natural."

Okay, this is not the real reason Sophie loved stripping tennis balls. But it’s funnier.

Sophie, the chocolate lab defines her space and tells Doug not to cross this line.
Sophie tells Doug that's his side and this is her side.
Sophie and Doug go back to their own toys.
Sophie gets bored.
Now Doug is bored too.
In the final panel of the comic strip, Sophie asks Doug if he wants to come over and play.

This comic strip inspired a chapter in “Sophie”, book two. In chapter six, the latest group of foster dogs get adopted. Sophie got what she wanted: her house back to herself. However she wasn’t happy and didn’t understand why.
I saw this strip and thought it would be interesting, and hopefully funny if she went on a small self-exploration adventure. One of the squirrels tells her to climb Mount Mojojumbajamab and seek wisdom from the Yeti of Enlightenment. And of course it’s not going to end the way Sophie is hoping it well.

In the first panel of this Dog eat Doug comic strip, Sophie, the chocolate labrador, sniffing flowers. One of the flowers twitches.
The flower sniffs Sophie.
The flower chases Sophie.

Any time we were gardening, Sophie had her nose in the mix. I haven’t had any flower obsessed dogs since. Although Gunnar is determined to water everything in the backyard. I think he thinks he’s saving us the work.
