Daniel Matheson—better known to Bored Panda readers as the creator of "Barely Baked Beans"—delves into the hilariously confusing dynamics between humans and their dogs in his latest comic series.

With awkwardly relatable and painfully accurate cartoons, Matheson introduces us to Beans and Peanut, two dogs living their best life with their human. But this isn’t your typical “owner and pets” story—it’s more like a trio of chaotic roommates bound together by snacks, shared chaos, and the occasional belly rub.

What sets Matheson apart is his knack for turning ordinary into sharp, character-driven comedy. His comics don’t just poke fun at dogs being dogs—they tap into the weird, wordless understanding between species that pet owners know all too well. It’s that blend of loyalty, exasperation, and love that makes each strip feel both hilarious and oddly heartwarming.

    They say that the two best days when owning a boat are the day you buy it, and the day you sell it . . .

    I hardly ever walk by roses without having a sniff. It is one of the pleasures that cost nothing and is not harmful in any way.

    This one made me laugh a lot harder than I expected it would! I needed to laugh, though! Especially on the off-chance that the author of these comics reads this comment, thank you for the much-needed laugh.

    That’s what Erik, the Phantom of the Opera, did in Leroux’s original novel. It was representative of the many mental disorders the poor man had acquired over his many years.
