Cancel Your Plans -МжIt's National Puppy Day!
by GoComicsIf you need proof that we're crazy for canines, look no further! Dogs are featured prominently in dozens of our comics, as main characters, silent foils, comic relief and numerous other roles.
Today is National Puppy Day, a day dedicated to celebrating the puppies of the world and raising awareness for our four-legged friends available for adoption from shelters. Shelter dogs (and cats!) are a perfect choice for anyone looking to adopt a pet.
Even if you can't adopt a furry friend right away, we hope you enjoy this roundup of some of our favorite funnypage pups.
1. Rover, Red and Rover
Although Rover can't talk per se, Red is still privy to his innermost thoughts. From naps to fetch to running Red's paper route, these two are inseparable.
2. Sophie, Dog Eat Doug
Sophie is used to being top dog in her house, but things take a turn when her humans bring home baby Doug. Although originally apprehensive of the new addition to the household, Sophie and Doug quickly learn to appreciate each other's unique talents.

3. Will, Dogs of C-Kennel
Set in a sprawling animal shelter, Dogs of C-Kennel follows the "life in lockdown" of a pugnacious pitbull named Will and a motley crew of inmates (or should we say "inmutts" ?). Will is the voice of reason in this chaotic yet hilarious strip.
4. Bleeker, Bleeker: The Rechargeable Dog
Bleeker is to other dogs what an iPhone 6s is to a rotary phone. Yes, Bleeker knows how to sit, stay, and play fetch, but he can also download email and plan Skip's homework calendar. There's always a risk of him running out of battery "о but he probably recharges faster than the average puppy.

5. Poncho, Pooch Cafe
In the universe of Pooch Cafe, dogs and humans speak the same language "о literally. This allows for some entertaining interactions where Chazz, Poncho's human master, attempts to understand Poncho's hare-brained and sometimes dastardly schemes, which seem to be endless in number.
One more piece of good news for all you diehard puppy fans: On May 3, our publishing division is releasing Shelter Dogs in a Photo Booth by Guinnevere Shuster.
