An Attempt to cartoonize my dog, First Series of his Comic Strips

This is maybe weird to some, but Mario Peso is such a special dog that I want his life cycle different from other dogs. I know whether I like it or not, he will have a shorter life span than I do, so I thought of things that would make him very memorable not only to me but to other people too that can become parts of our lives.

Peso was six years old when I asked my Artist friend to at least come up with a very short comics story where Peso will be the lead star. I just sent him Peso's photo in almost all angles, and since I can't think of story at that time, my friend initiated to do everything, and he just showed me the finished product.

 It is called  Mga Kwento ni Peso or  Peso Stories or Peso Adventures.  As you can see below the title, "Strip 1 series 2006".   This is our first attempt and sadly there was no follow up yet, and my artist friend already transferred to another job, but then the last time we talked I submitted to him the script for the 2nd strip, and he is just waiting for my go signal.

 One Sunny afternoon while waiting for Big Sis Cel, Mario Peso strolled, when suddenly he smelled something interesting and quite yummy?

When he was sure where the scent came from, adventurous Peso ran thinking that other dogs might find it before him

 and he found a big bone partly stuck up on land.  He thought ohh Jackpot....

 Without reservation or second thoughts, Naughty Mario Peso grabbed the bone right away, but he realized it was deeply stuck in the soil, and he can't get it in one strong pull using his mouth..

 He digged the soil to get the bone freely, Peso is a very impatient dog that he digged exagerrately.......

 Digging to much made him realized what he just digged accidentally.....

 so Mario Peso accidentally digged a still intact Dinasour skeleton...

What is the artist's explanation why Peso was dressed up like a little boy in his comics strip? he said he based it on me, on my fondness about my dogs. whenever  I tell stories about his cleverness. His imagination is telling him that  Peso is like  a younger brother to me..
