PETA would sure as hell protest if it were humans that hunted and killed the deer.
What would their opinion be over these wolves doing the same?
… This also brings up the scary question of if the deer in this reality have achieved the same level of sapience as the wolves and dogs and other pets we’ve seen.
I mean, there’s already been talking horses… How far removed are deer from horses?
isnt it like furrys with pets though? or most anything of human animal relations, anthropomorphicised (god i hope i spelled that right). but I have often thought about these sort of things, anyone have an answere/opinion?
You do know, that somewhere, someone in the anthropomorphic community is going to take that “Sniff the Cook” apron and make a tee-shirt out of it since it is so clever. Clever hell, I thought it was funny! Wait…..is it a smock or apron? I mean aprons are used to cooking, but smocks have that little neck thing…..Hmmm.
i don’t know… i hope those humans are understanding … and someone will actually make a fire to roast that thing … (yummy) …. otherwise this could be a bad housewarming party ..
Lets see, one strip had him shown shorter than a adult man. The one where he caused panic in the city by greeting said man.
And Peanut is a dog of unspecified breed, but lets assume he is the size of an average/small one. If Peanut was average Grape is one huge cat. Anyhow they of course are pets and a lot smaller than humans. In the Uncle Ruben’s Farm arc it was usggested they are around as tall as small children when standing on 2 legs.
So Miles (and assumably other wolves) isn’t probobly much bigger than a german shepard if it got on 2 legs. Thats still pretty big though.
… We need a size chart, for the readers sanity and the creators accuracys sake. (Still a very enjoyable comic though. :3 )
Only gutted.
There’s still meat on those bones to be cooked.
Let me at it and it will knock you off your feet…
I tend to experiment when cooking.
Let’s see… A little cayenne sprinkled over the body,
some Dales Sauce, a little Bud for marinating
and removing of fat.
Top that off with some onion and garlic salt,
roast it for a few hours, after marination,
of course, and serve it up.
The Budweiser will have gotten rid of a lot of
the fat, and will make the meat literally
fall-off-of-the-bone tender, while the alcohol
is cooked away by the fire.
It takes a certain sort of class to pull that off, right?.. well maybe the wrong sort actually >.>
No one can quite understand human dining ettiquette anyway
I feel bad for her. Nothing quite like slaving over a feast that no one will eat.
I wonder what books he was reading that made him think a gutted deer carcass would be awesome. Then again, there may be some hunters in the neighborhood who would marvel at their ‘gift’
And if you think it’s bad, I’ll fix it up so that only a
vegetarian or someone from PETA, that is,
the Ethical Treatment PETA, not the, For the Eating
of Tasty Animals PETA, would refuse to eat it.
yay first
nice
Let’s see how many people show up!
I wonder it that PETA guy will show up.
That’s… A really good question, actually.
PETA would sure as hell protest if it were humans that hunted and killed the deer.
What would their opinion be over these wolves doing the same?
… This also brings up the scary question of if the deer in this reality have achieved the same level of sapience as the wolves and dogs and other pets we’ve seen.

Scary concept, but I think you’re over-analyzing the Gag a wee bit too much…
isnt it like furrys with pets though? or most anything of human animal relations, anthropomorphicised (god i hope i spelled that right). but I have often thought about these sort of things, anyone have an answere/opinion?
We’ve already seen it. Remember when Grape ate the mouse? There is still a food chain.
Saw it with the cows. Food animals are dumb.
Just a matter of do deer count or not.
It isn’t classy until you roast it first.
It may not be in the suburbs, but out here in the boonies, it’s completely acceptable,
Depends on if it’s cooked, and what side of the Mason-Dixon you’re on.
i think the fluids is what makes it classy.
That apron… Do want!
I like where this is going XD
I can tell, Lucretia is the Martha Stuart of her pack. The apron says it all.
Just think of it as a luau, except with a deer instead of a pig!
I want to go the the housewarming party too!!!
Wow, Thats Good! XD Go Lucretia & Miles! =D
I still come! I’ll bring pie!
I’ll bring the chocolate covered roasted squirels*
I’ll bring a turkey and a few pheasants.
Nothing says “WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD!!”
better than a dead bird or few ^^
Now I need to go make the stuffing…
you just gave me a great idea for thanksgiving!
I think Peanut is funny and cute.
I bring…My appetite?
She’s cute for a predator
She is cute. I’m bringing the Tuna Casserole!
I really love that apron.
But you’d end up next to the deer if you actually tried to I think. (^_^)
Hmm…now is this deer fresh? cause I won’t eat it if its not!
Only if itz being severed.
Wolves wouldn’t serve rotting meat.
…right?
Lucretia? As in Vincent’s mother from FFVII? Or maybe I’m looking too far into other references…
And they can still have venison. It just needs to be cooked. :p
Your looking too hard into it, yes.
Total geek moment I know, but Lucretia is SEPHIROTH’S mother. Vincent was in love with her but got spurned in favor of Hojo.
Nah, same things happened when the character was first introduced into Housepets.
No geeks here… Just intellectuals !~
What I know of FFVII is…
Lucretia was Sephiroth’s mother, an’ Vincent’s wife, an’ Jenova is…
Wait…
He repeatedly called her mother, but… Who was she?
she is acutily sephrorths mother vencent worked is at shinera the same time as lucretia
“Sniff the Cook”??
Oh man.. I ain’t going there. Funny yes, but I’m not going there.
…depends on who’s wearing that apron^^…
I think it’s the female… Still… They probably all smell like Popcorn.
Kernel corn!
I think Wolves trying to be like Humans is gona be funny on SOOO many levels! Sniff the cook…wonder if you’d get bit if you tried?
It was already pointed out, but:
You’d probobly end up next to the centerpiece if you tried.
Depending on her mood it might be worth it
Peanut as an etiquette coach, even if he doesn’t know much about it, is pretty awesome in my books!
And yes. The apron is awesome! (It must be MINE!)
You do know, that somewhere, someone in the anthropomorphic community is going to take that “Sniff the Cook” apron and make a tee-shirt out of it since it is so clever. Clever hell, I thought it was funny! Wait…..is it a smock or apron? I mean aprons are used to cooking, but smocks have that little neck thing…..Hmmm.
dont go smartass on me, mister!
i would so wear that shirt … and i like to cook
Gross :C
WEll it looks like they still have their INSTINCTS…..
Are you talking about the apron or the carcass now? xP
Maybe…
BOTH?!
Im going to make the apron. I love my job. Go cosplay designers! We rule!
But at least the effort was there.
I love Peanut’s expression in panel three… and I died laughing when I saw the apron!!
He kinda looks like their son, just…
Um…
Kinda like an orphan with a new home?
awesome. just awesome.
Just…… where did she GET that apron?
Dont know…
*whispers* You can still get some for $12 each!
Nope, nothing comes to mind.
I wonder how many people have thought or have done modified Sniff to something else.
I’d like to see a shirt that says “Sniff the Glaucoma Patient”
i don’t know… i hope those humans are understanding … and someone will actually make a fire to roast that thing … (yummy) …. otherwise this could be a bad housewarming party ..
If he keeps growing taller/more muscular like this, in about three more strips Miles will have green fur.
Lets see, one strip had him shown shorter than a adult man. The one where he caused panic in the city by greeting said man.
And Peanut is a dog of unspecified breed, but lets assume he is the size of an average/small one. If Peanut was average Grape is one huge cat. Anyhow they of course are pets and a lot smaller than humans. In the Uncle Ruben’s Farm arc it was usggested they are around as tall as small children when standing on 2 legs.
So Miles (and assumably other wolves) isn’t probobly much bigger than a german shepard if it got on 2 legs. Thats still pretty big though.
… We need a size chart, for the readers sanity and the creators accuracys sake. (Still a very enjoyable comic though. :3 )
Fido is bigger than Peanut by… about a head?
Miles is bigger than Fido.
There’s your size chart.
Miles has been growing though. Compare his size vs Peanut in this comic to a previous one:
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2009/10/02/an-eloquent-speaker/
Same conversation even!
I know, ya gotta work on the designs a bit before their finalized. It’s still kinda funny to see though.
Wouldn’t a center piece be like, flowers? So I don’t think the deers for eating, especially since he did say CARCASS….weird.
Only gutted.
There’s still meat on those bones to be cooked.
Let me at it and it will knock you off your feet…
I tend to experiment when cooking.
Let’s see… A little cayenne sprinkled over the body,
some Dales Sauce, a little Bud for marinating
and removing of fat.

The Budweiser will have gotten rid of a lot of

BAM!! Perfect Venison!
I must admit, you are making me drool a bit, that sounds like some good meat.
I got most of my ideas from my older brother and parents.
It sounds like something my brother would cook up, being both a hunter and a chef.
I’ll have to meet him one day
exchange recipes and what not lol
What, no organ meats?
Hay, a deer carcass? That’s perfectly acceptable.
…It’s for decoration AND dinning purposes right?
Cuz now my mouth is watering…
I’d sniff THAT cook.
If y’know what I mean.
Chicka-bam!
AHH! You ruined the phrase!
*smacks you over the head*
The phrase goes “BOW-CHICKA-BOW-WOW”
Also, I like how Rick redesigned Lucretia, she looks awesome.
I love Peanut’s expression in the last panel. That just made the comic for me.
I’ll bring the Chuhiahuas! … wait those arn’t side dishes? Hmmm…
Guacamole! \o/
It takes a certain sort of class to pull that off, right?.. well maybe the wrong sort actually >.>
No one can quite understand human dining ettiquette anyway
LOVE the apron. c:
I’m a deer.
}8′.
Frig.
i feel bad for you
I feel bad for her. Nothing quite like slaving over a feast that no one will eat.
I wonder what books he was reading that made him think a gutted deer carcass would be awesome. Then again, there may be some hunters in the neighborhood who would marvel at their ‘gift’
well clearly the neighborhood isn’t in pennsylvania…
Amazing how an apron instantly makes her look feminine.
Wa~it, isn’t this technically hadaka apron?
“Sniff the Cook?” *facepalm* Canine habits…
P.S. Yuri Lowenthal for Peanut, Michelle Ruff for Grape!
AWrrr that’s funny
Peanut is adorable as always and the wolves are more pretty then anytjing I’ve seen before!
And ”Lucie” is hawt ^^ HAWT WOLF I TELL TA
HA!
Gutted Deer? WIN! If you don’t think that’s a good centerpiece, you must have bad taste!
And if you think it’s bad, I’ll fix it up so that only a
vegetarian or someone from PETA, that is,
the Ethical Treatment PETA, not the, For the Eating
of Tasty Animals PETA, would refuse to eat it.
Meh, who cares for visual? Frills are for dresses, not for food!
I’d love to see that centerpiece…maybe Lucretia is the wolf equivalent of Martha Stewart!
(Loving “Sniff the Cook”, btw.)
