This puzzle was drawn by Matthew Inman of The Oatmeal. It’s based on his dog, Rambo.

The thought bubbles over Rambo’s head show what he dreams about while he’s napping. On the left are his nightmares -- vacuum cleaners and bathtubs, and on the right are his dreams -- squirrels wrapped in bacon and infinite tennis balls. This puzzle tells a dozen tiny stories about what we love about man’s best friend. It’s a good puzzle for people who like “small victories” -- because each section of the puzzle tells a tiny story.

Every piece fits together snugly, and the artwork of Rambo’s dream bubbles is so charming that my kids and I laughed the whole way through. It’s the rare puzzle you’ll want to keep glued and framed once you finish the 500 pieces.

The thought bubbles are so detailed that I found myself grinning at Rambo's dream scenarios before even sorting the edge pieces. Pieces fit snugly enough that moving sections around wasn't a hassle, though a couple had slight peeling at the corners. Solid afternoon project for any Oatmeal fan.
