There are two dogs facing each other, with one of them implied to be talking. Both have cones over their heads, but one of the cones is backwards.
The cone on the dog on the right side is facing in the opposite direction that they're usually placed in, negating its proper usage.
Why is the dog's scratch cone on backwards? What is the dog on the right saying?
I could never pull that off.

A play on the phrase "pull that off" --- to "pull off" an outfit usually means to wear it in a way that is beautiful/attractive. But here, while the dog is referring to a garment that the other dog is wearing, the correctly worn elizabethan collar, "pull that off" is literal because dogs are literally unable to to pull off a properly fitted elizabethan collar by design.
