Why do they DO that? - Sheldon® Comic Strip

PANEL 1: GRAMP, an older bald man with a grey mustache, walks his dog, OSO, a fawn pug. OSO looks back and up at GRAMP. Behind them is a green hedge and a brown fence. The sky is blue with clouds.
TEXT: Sometimes, when you’re walking your dog, you’ll notice they’re just STARING at you.

PANEL 2: OSO, isolated on a blue and cloudy background, looks behind him as he runs.
TEXT: But they’re doing it while they’re walking forward — which means they have to CRANE THEIR ENTIRE NECK!

PANEL 3: GRAMP, holding the leash, looks down at OSO, who is looking up at him.
TEXT: What the heck? Why would they DO that?

PANEL 4: GRAMP runs along OSO, both of them looking at each other as they gallop along. A hedge and a tree zoom backwards as they run.
TEXT: Oh. You know what? Maybe it’s BONKERS AMOUNTS OF LOVE.
