Wow that sure looks like fun!
don’t forget awesome!
And cute!
Snow got pink nose. Eeeeee!
I also like how she’s holding both her and her mate’s leashes. >:3
She’s albino, see the red eyes?
Hippos taste like chicken!
When does something NOT taste like chicken? lol
When its actually chicken (only half joking there)
Depends on what is it that you’ve NEVER eaten before. I’m sure that’s not like chicken… go on try and prove it. This is basic quantum science.
Ostrich tastes more like cow meat, I know, I’ve tried.
But there eggs taste like chicken
Or lard.
Cue “what chicken” and their consternation
YAY! BBQ’ed Hippo!
Those leashes are actually quite fashionable
yeah snow looks real good (with or without one on)
Yay more wolves! Also I’m surprised the owner doesn’t know about the Ferrets program or that they didn’t call ahead of time to tell them they were coming. It would have saved a lot of trouble.
I don’t think the ferrets knew what the wolves were planning.
Well Miles could have called ahead of time anyway since it is a bit strange that a pack of wolves would come to a zoo. And I think the Ferrets program would be big enough that the zoo owner would have heard of it.
for what we know, the wolves *did* call the ferrets.
it’s the ferrets that conveniently forgot to warn the zoo director and then enjoy the show on their TVs while eating popcorn
Or maybe they (the ferret) thought it’d be fun.
They did install a pneumatic tube for the express purpose of using it as some super-speed slide…
Miles does tend to be hilariously naive at times.
Too late! They are already way out of place!
what do ya mean?
What a pleasant-looking family
:O and we have names to go with them!
you can say that again!
Lol “innocent bystanders”
Lol “the other Daryl”
guilty bystanders!
guilty for fearing them wolves!
too much awesomeness!
ITS OVER 9000 *cough* Why yes, it is awesome
Other Daryl??
“This is my brother Daryl, and this is my other brother Daryl.”
Of course, now it’s flipped around
“And this is my sister Daryl.”
“Nice to meet y… wait what!?“
“And that is my other sister Daryl.”
ARGH! Too many Daryls. I can’t keep them straight.
“…and this is my cousin Oates… Hey! Where are you running?”
Can we call them all Bruce to make it simpler?
my vote for Waldo!
Newhart reference. Probably too old for most computer literate people, but I’ve seen reruns… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TN6UAzYY8qg
I watch a lot of TV, so I’m well aware of some of the older references.
Now I feel old…I watched Newhart when it first came on–not just the Larry, Daryl and Daryl Newhart, but the original Newhart show as well.
I think I’d better go find my cane and rocking chair….lol
You’ll be 20% cooler if you get a sword cane.
Snow is my favorite. <3
cousin Rodney is one lucky wolf!
How can you tell who is who!? O.O
true. that could be the other Daryl with snow. but I assume the white one is snow and the old one’s Lucretia’s mother.
Exactly! For all we know, Cousin Rodney could be the one wearing the yellow hat.
But that’s Daryl!
I repeat my question…
How on earth can you tell them apart? X3
eye color
The same way you tell apart Huey from Dewey or Louie
But they’re not wearing caps!
Rodney IS the one with Snow
@Argent: Daryl is
HAH!!!
But it’s all the same color!
That’s Daryl with Daryl
Snow is the white wolf on the left.
Cousin Rodney is the brown wolf with the ascot.
Daryl is the wolf with yellow eyes and a hat.
The other Daryl is the wolf with yellow eyes and no hat.
Lucretia is the one with dark blue eyes and blue leash.
And Lucretia’s Mother is the old wolf.
I believe that covers that.
Second’d! <3
She’s on my list as well in terms of unexpected. I can never get the idea of a female white wolf named Snow out of my mind that’s cute, innocent and motherly. <3
triple date!
Peanut and Grape
King and Bailey
Snow and Rodney
Ahem!
Grape and Maxwell
Peanut and Tarot
King and Bailey
But i would find it funny if they needed Snow and Lucretia for babysitting.
Umm…i don’t think the zoo animals are included in the all-you-can-eat buffet.
why not?
Rodney
I love that you named all of them instead of just putting “Miles’ pack” for all of them that weren’t named yet.
I bet Rick’s probably tired of having to go re-tag everything whenever a minor character suddenly gains a name.
Snow has such nice red eyes. <3
just like the Great Kitsune!
and she look lovely
yeah shes real good looking!
Everyone’s an innocent bystander when you let wolves in the zoo.
The wolves aren’t bystanders.
No they aren’t, but everyone else is.
Everyone is King.
That’s cuz King is Awesome!!
You can say that again
all comments lead to King
Forever King! D
LONG LIVE THE KING!!!
Hey everyone, what’d I miss?
You missed you.
but it is ok you’re all over it
that was meant to go here by the way
Right.
@ AuvaAkita that’s my name…
Daryl has a Phooey Duck imposter?
Of course, now fans will want the Daryls to meet the Bigglesworths
Enjoying a lot the concept of this arc.
What about Larry?
“One is a genius! The other’s insane! And-the-other-one’s-Larry!”
Genius?
Ge Ni U S
Geranium Nickle Uranium Sulfur
also
Ba Co N
Barium Cobalt Nitrogen
It’s the floral periodic table! Geranium! Aspidistra!
What ABOUT Larry?
If it’s Larry KING, it’s alright
Oh yea, An entire pack of friendly wolves walking on two legs wandering the zoo is TOTALLY normal! No conceivable way They could be considered out of place! lol.
What a defensive tactic against a charging bear! lol.
I can’t wait to see what happens next!
at least they all have their tags >.>
They’re going to end up very much banned from that zoo aren’t they? Also Snow’s eyes seem to be a bit misalined, maybe it’s just me.
banned? Noooo they were going to become a perminate exhibit of the Zoo
Has it ever been explained what those necklaces are they all have? Wolf version of pet collars?
That is there version of a pet collar tag.
Miles has worn one before.
I do believe Snow is the first albino we’re seen.
That’s what I thought at first, but she might not be. Pit is (probably) an albino ferret and has pink eyes. Kevin is a normal colored dobie and has red eyes like Snow. Snow’s fur isn’t pure white like Pit’s fur is.
Not all albino’s are pure white either. My parents have a little dog that’s a partial albino because of the pink skin and white fur, but brown eyes. Albino snakes are often a yellow color.
I’m asuming Snow is the guy with the red hat?
Most would assume snow would be the light colored wolf with the red eyes, but i guess anything is possible.
No, that would be a innocent bystander
I find this hilarious.
I have no idea why ._____.
a true family experience, impending fiasco included
New character bombardment! @_@
Dive for cover!
Hey, I just noticed something: Miles is not in the picture!
Correct mouse. He’s not tagged.
Well, I kind of assumed that if he was the one leading the trip, he would… oh never mind
I thought Lucretia was Miles at first, then realized Miles wasn’t tagged when I tried to find her in the strip.
Snow=My new for sure fav female character in this comic. Albino wolf is a cute one.
Could Snow be pure as white Snow? o.o
And everywhere that Mary went, she was sure to go?
Let’s hope Snow won’t follow Mary to school one day.
Ya know it’s kinda interesting to see how people’re going to react to something like this in a world where animal can actually talk.
well, from what we’ve seen….
Peanut: It’s a were-wolf!
Grape: He’s just a regular– let me sleep!
Bill: There’s no way any of this is legal!
Passer-by: SWEET CHRISTMAS IT’S A WOLF!
Ferrets: Get in the car
I’m actually surprised there isn’t more screaming going on seeing what the reaction to one lone wolf (Miles) in the city was. Maybe people who go to the zoo are assuming that any wild animals there are friendlier than most ferals. I still think it’s funny how easily Keene let the giant predator five times bigger than he was in his limo. Weasels know no fear!
Am I the only one who first thought that the white wolf as a big white ferret? :p lol
I love Grandpa Wolf by the way, he’s adorable.
I think the old one is Lucretia’s mother.
Exactly what it says on the tin. It’s Lucretia and her mother.
Wait, where does it say this?
Oh never mind, I never noticed the little text up until now. :p
WHITE WOLF!
*dies happy*
So Rick…… who is going to be Mr. Scrooge this year!? (There can be only ONE) 0.o
Or he could reference a different christmas classic?
ya, someone could wish they didn’t exist
one of the ferrets i would assume. they ARE the only ones with tons of money, but they do tend to spend it constantly so i don’t know how that would work out
my bad, that was a reply to thefirstonethere, i forgot to press the reply button. oops ^_^
I love to exploit loopholes! And in reference to the title text (the mouseover text), I think that a shot is more of a reason NOT to get bitten.
mum approves of Lucretia’s suggestion
Remember, the Daryl we know is actually “the other Daryl”. Miles introduced him originally as “my other brother Daryl”.
So now regular not previously seen Daryl is branded as “Other Daryl.” He’s probably the one with the previously seen Daryl but who knows.
Director, Sir, this is Security: We contacted Animal Control. They just went on strike.
Our Daryl wants to work at the zoo? lol
oh wow… O_o
i want to se more comics of king he`s so cute and i want him to stay a dog
He’s offscreen listening to all this…plus you don’t want to OD on him when this comic has so many fun characters and may have just added a few more.
We just had a whole arc dedicated to King, you’re just gunna have to wait, buddy.
Old gramps looks like “proud of ya son”.
But that is her daughter.
Perhaps she’s going senile.
Oh, dear…I love the wolves so much. So socially awkward and adorable. X3;
OK, is the brown wolf with Snow Rodney or Daryl?
Word Of God says it’s Rodney
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2011/12/07/from-the-outside-in/comment-page-1/#comment-91435
Hmmm… Snow. White wolf. Red eyes.
Then there’s Tarot…
Is anyone else seeing this, or am I just paranoied?
Perhaps, you’re just paranoid. Snow’s an albino wolf and they’ve clearly been dating for a while.
“snow.white” = snow white
Bears! The other white meat!
Polar bears?
Obviously, the parents should have kept their children on the leashes.
That would sound so wrong, if we weren’t talking about wolves.
No, wait even that sounds a little off…
actually, they do make leashes for little kids.
Buttons and Mindy!
Sorry, it’s bad enough that we treat our pets like kids, we do not need to treat our kids like pets.
I used a leash on my kids when they were younger–better to have a three year old on a leash when dealing with him and a one year old than have him run out in traffic on a whim while I was dealing with the other.
“The Other Daryl”, what?
Miles has at least two brothers named Daryl.
cloning, it was only a mater of time with the Ferrets
How is a leash supposed to work when you’re holding it yourself?
It’s just a loophole, the zoo is relaxed/disapproves of the leash law in the city/county and only requires the leash to be worn, but it doesn’t have to be held by anyone (though Lucretia might prevent more trouble if she was holding onto the kids…).
Ever heard the term “restrain yourself”?
Yeah, that’s what it means.
lol
Dang, Snow is cute.
I love the look she’s giving Rodney, “Oh you…”. And as mentioned above, her holding both leashes is adorable.
The other Daryl looks unamused at his wacky brother.
Understatement
I think delightfully adorable would be better.
This makes me wonder if wolves would like pizza?
Hippo pizza would be awesome.
With giraffe bacon bits on top
Well, it wouldn’t be bacon if it came from a giraffe.
Why not? They make turkey bacon.
…Really?
*Facepalm* I guess this world just can’t get enough bacon.
INFILTRATION COMPLETE. *sneak sneak*
err…now HOW do we get out, boss?
“Why would we need to leave? We have all this food here.”
yes Boss! food food food for daz
And how I would enjoy to be there with them, I’d be playing with them all especially the kids uh, pups. Since I’m especially fond of canines, especially wolves. Thanks for a really great comic, have a happy holiday.
“Err, Sir, a group of visitors are cuddling the visitors.”
Especially once they visit the petting zoo area! Hee, I wonder what their reaction would be if they’re mobbed by children like Peanut and Grape (and King) at a farm. They’re quite well behaved for ferals.. maybe the pups would nip.
I’d still totally do it! Don’t take me camping, I’d try to hug the wildlife (guys I’m kidding… again).
Sadly, things didn’t go nearly so well in real life here at the Minnesota Zoo, and the wolf who tried to tour the zoo was shot.

wow u add a whit wolf and im not sher but is the whit wolf the only cariter with red eyes??
It’s called albinism. It’s a medical condition where the body produces no pigments at all, so the hair appears white because it’s simply refracting light, and the eyes appear red because, with the iris having no color, the millions of blood vessels underneath it become visible
or she could be part vampire…
man i wish i had that medical condition it dont sound to bad
Except for the fact that anything as strong/ stronger than a high watt lightbulb will give you sunburn.
I love how motherly Lucretia’s advice is
why do people fear them………. they ain’t hurting nobody its all good in the hood man
Strange how most of the problems in my life have been solved by acting like I have rabies
love the white wolf! i can tell this arc is either going to be adorable, hilarious, or disturbing…or maybe a totally awesome combination of all!!!! cant wait =D
who can wesa cant.
you’re talking about THE RICK, man!
Awesome combo is his standard!
Lol that to festival time using a I pod tuch
Hey, do you guys know of any other cartoons like this one that I can read/keep up to date on. I just spent the last hour reading these from the first panel all the way here and was wondering if you guys knew any other ones like it?
Who’s that pale wolf? She’s… um she’s pretty.
Looking at the tags and using process of elimination leads us to the logical conclusion that the albino wolf is “Snow.”
I read Daryl’s line in Ellis’ voice.
