Kirk Bergman and Duncan McBoo are pedigree police: the finest canine cops in all Muttropolis. And they're never short of work. The city is heaving with cunning crooks and malevolent mongrels who would sell their own mother for a bone.

Join our dog detectives as they chase leads, sniff out crime, collar the bad guys and generally get their teeth into adventures full of action, suspense and . . . milkshakes.

Criminals beware: McBoo and Bergman are on your tail!



Dave Shelton's slapstick cop antics will appeal one level to the younger readers with their visual gags and the strip's often frenetic pacing. Older readers, however, will find much to amuse them in GDBD's obvious homage to the film noir genre and in picking up the loving references to that era of cinema
Broken Frontier

Definitely First-Class
Paul GravettShelton's artwork throughout is masterful, brilliantly controlled and perfectly paced to lay out every gag just right to get the most laughs
Forbidden Planet Blog

Sequential narrative (comic book panels to you and me) can offer more visual possibilities than straightforward writing and Dave Shelton makes full use of the form . . . This hairy whodunnit will thrill children from 5-99. Go fetch!
Emma ByrneInis

The plots are goofy, the laughs are there and writer/artist Dave Shelton has got more expression out of his characters than I thought possible. Let's hope we see more of the Muttropolis duo in the future
Bear Alley

The slapstick is outstanding
Singapore Comix

Dave Shelton's comic timing is incredible - he seems to be able to control the pace at which your eyes move from one panel to another, so each gag is a complete surprise
Armadillo Magazine

It is a brilliant homage to the classic noir detective movies, and pretty much every cop buddy movie going and is laced throughout with snappy dialogue and one-liners that will make you laugh out loud
Book Zone for Boys

A hilarious noir detective romp . . . Full of slapstick visual gags and great wordplay, you'll soon develop a soft spot for these two lovable detectives
