“We want to help as many homeless pets as possible,” said Rick Gardner of Binky and Bell. “This project was a combination of our passion for dogs, a love of corny dad jokes and puns, and our deep desire to help every pet find their forever home.”

“I have been collecting my favorite dad jokes for years, and that was definitely a fun part of this project, as well as selecting the artwork to include,” Gardner stated. “Toward the end of the editing process, it became really difficult whittling down the list of jokes. Of course, a fair number of dog jokes made the cut! I think my favorite is, “The other day I adopted a dog from the local blacksmith. As soon as I got home, she made a bolt for the door.’”
