Bark Loop - Sheldon® Comic Strip

PANEL 1: OSO, a fawn pug, stands with his front paws on a window, barking. Outside is a tree, but we don’t see what he’s barking at.
NARRATION: If you have ONE dog, they will bark at stimuli…but eventually will settle down.

PANEL 2: OSO stands next to DIGBY, a brown dachshund. Both of them have their mouths open, eyes wide, barking.
NARRATION: But if you have TWO dogs, thebark of the first one becomes the stimuli for the second one. And thus, you get an INFINITE BARKING LOOP.

PANEL 3: GRAMP, an older bald man with a grey mustache, stands with his arms outs. Four different fans are scattered around him, clearly on.
NARRATION: PRO TIP: Hook those two up to a generator, and slash your home energy bills!
GRAMP: They’re powering NINE fans!
