A Simple Woof: The Language of Dogs

A four-panel comic shows a blue alien gently petting a sleeping red dog. In the first panel, the alien says the creature requested gentle handpats. In the second, the alien asks 'for how long'. In the third, the dog wakes up with a confused expression. In the fourth, the alien resumes petting and says 'until one of us perishes' and 'a life well spent'.
