You’re never too old for comics!
Have you checked out MUTTS yet?
The comic strip MUTTS
appears in more than 700 newspapers in 20 countries. I love the Mutts Comics because of the way creator Patrick McDonnell champions animal and rescue causes. Some of my favorite comics are those that make a statement about animal treatment. Here is a sample from the new book, The MUTTS Winter Diaries, making a subtle statement about the plight of chained dogs.
Awww sweet Earl was concerned about the poor chained dog who was left outside in the cold.
MUTTS even won awards for its environmental and animal advocacy: two
Genesis Awards from The Ark Trust, The HSUS Hollywood Genesis Award for
Ongoing Commitment, the PETA Humanitarian Award, and a Sierra Club
award. McDonnell’s website promotes his animal-and
earth-friendly philosophy.
I was excited to receive a copy of the new book, The MUTTS Winter Diaries, and an adorable pink MUTTS sleep shirt. Aren’t they cute?
McDonnell and his wife reside with Amelie, their rescue Jack Russell
terrier, and Not Ootie, their formerly feral cat.
FULL DISCLOSURE: I received a free copy of The Mutts Winter Diaries, and a MUTTS sleep shirt. I had no obligation to blog about this, but chose to because I am already a fan of MUTTS. I only share products I think my readers would find interesting.
