Dogs on Dates

If Brad’s the balloon, Bernie’s the string. Love is real. And Luke Healy will prove it, one joke at a time.

It’s dogs. And they are on dates.

Bernie—a confident, chill, and world-wise gay, trans, short Seth Rogen type—is fresh from telling his college advisor that he’s dropping out of art school. Absentmindedly, he walks into a plate glass window, bashing his face. Before he can even formulate gratitude for the window not breaking …

Brad—a sweet-natured, kindhearted romantic, who is not cool, but nice, which is actually better—arrives at the school for a gig to teach students about the merits of caring for the environment. Dressed as an earth mascot, “Earthy,” he walks into the glass from the other side. But this time, it smashes. In totality.

With Bernie and Brad off to the hospital together, is this the gay dog meet-cute we’ve all been searching for? Of course, dating is never so simple. Hilariousness and awkwardness ensue as our two love dogs face misadventures, mishaps, and missteps…but also flowers, pasta, sandwiches, and maybe even love.

In Luke Healy’s wonderfully precise yet loose line and careful wit, Dogs on Dates will quickly become your favorite comics rom-com.
