The CartoonStock Cartoon Caption Contest No. 188

In the CartoonStock Caption Contest number 188, we are in a living room with a flying dog and its master. The dog may or may not be an angel; there's no halo.


The rules of the monthly cash prize contest have not changed (and neither has my description of them): Five dollars buys up to three entries. Real cash prizes are $500 for first place and $100 for each of five runners up. As of this writing, I've put $165 into the first thirty-three pay-to-play contests and this thirty-fourth challenge brings my total cash outlay up to $170. Having achieved runner-up status with two previous entries, I've collected $200 from CartoonStock, so I'm still playing with the house's money, thank goodness. In fact, so few contestants enter that the odds may generally be considered favorable even for us less-gifted caption writers. My three entries are shown below. The cartoonist is J. C. Duffy. 

"Guess what happened when I caught the car."
"So, it's true, you can't feed a dog chocolate."
"I never had my day."
