Is continuity a valid form of logic? An obvious thread of blue would rarely have gaps. Most people never see forearms separated at the elbow in real life. Even an ER doctor may only get one or two in a carreer. So logic suggests that the forarm be contiguous. Another forum topic?

If this puzzle is so difficult that most people have to resort to guessing, and it needs lots of logic to solve, then why are people rating it as easy (2)?

Oh - I just checked the information on this puzzle, and there is only one person who has rated it so far. Out of 20 who say they completed it, only one person rated it? Weird.

gator i went back and followed your logic and it counts for me as being logical
when solving this the first time i had initially missed what you described in paragraph 8 or else i would have solved this myself without guessing
fantastic find there on the logic

really cute. do your lower-rider dogs ever wrap their different colored leashes around something so it looks like a May Pole? They look like they are good at staying in formation, though. In your ratio of dog size, if you take the half of the dog-and-a-half length, and add it to the half-a-dog height, it ends up being a whole dog. Thank goodness for that. Names?

Brain has a point about the elbow... its logical that the ulna is attached to the humeras

i agree with jota - very fun solve.

Oscar, Coco, and Sedona. Somtimes they will wrap around a pole or tree, but more often around my legs. Our cat Misty comes for walks with us too, but no leash for her.

Had to guess, but it wasn't complicated guessing or maybe I was lucky.

I saw this dog, trained as a hospital visitor, catch his leash behind his front leg, the owner said "Fix" and the dog picked up his leg so that the leash was in front again. None of my dogs would ever be that smart.
