Excellent captions, I was surprised it took so long for someone to come up with the take off on the Target Dog. I am pandering a bit with the list of honorable mentions, but this contest just seemed to bring out a funny vein in many of the commentors.
The Winners
Ne Plus Ultra: RightWingDuck – Unfortunately, the tryouts for the new Target Dog Mascot turned out quite differently than expected.
Second: Harry – Tank Commander Ralph Watkins winces as he realizes he has unwittingly let loose the dog of war.
Third: LJD – “I think he’s gettin’ ready to leave a road-side bomb!”
Honorable Mention:
Laurence Simon – We meet again, Teddy Salad.
Bithead – Mike Dukakas meets the enemy
OJ – Captain, we got that filthy dog Zarqawi!
Myopist – Swear to God, if it cocks a leg I’m shooting it. I spent four hours washing this tank.
Dougrc – Reminiscent of the 1989 Tianenmen Square incident, Fluffy stood her ground for half an hour before slowly backing out of the way of the advancing tanks.
Rachel Edith – President Bush made that surprise visit to the troops last week. Scheduling glitches resulted in presidential dog, Barney, being left behind in a fox hole. Barney emerged today none the worse for wear. After de-briefing in Germany, the dog will be reunited with the Commander-in-Chief.
Roark – Hold Fire! …It’s not a FRENCH poodle.
The Thursday contest has already started.
