Two Doodles get the freedom of the house for 8 hours...

[Hunter and Daisy's Doodle Mom]

I'm sure the title alone may have captured your attention. My one year olds, Daisy and Hunter, are in a trial period of slowly having their "space" expanded while we are away at work or on errands. Now, we all now the Doodles are smart, they can be mischievous, and will sometimes leave you guessing.

Case #06152010. (In case you're wondering where those numbers came from, it's just the date of the crime and I couldn't think of any other random numbers)

I left for work one Tuesday afternoon and decided that I would give them another shot at not being gated up while we were gone at work. This previous Saturday I gave it a test run and they passed with flying colors. It was only 41/2 hours on Saturday; however, today was a very different day. Today, I found out that 8 hours is not 4 hours. The return home became the scene of a heinous crime.

Let the evidence show that one, right foot sandal made by Cabela's has totally disappeared and with obvious teeth marks all along the edges and surface of said sandal.

Let the evidence also reveal that traces of torn up pieces were found on the area where both defendants sleep and play...their blanket.

Who are the defendants?

Daisy...a.k.a. The Diva. Daisy has a prior record, to include destruction on a door jam by chewing and eating an entire hot pink ring toy that she was convicted of sortly after the crime.

Hunter...a.k.a. The Horse. Hunter seems to be the innocent brother of Daisy; however, a darker side will reveal that Hunter aided and abetted with his sister in the destruction on a door jam by chewing. He was also convicted of stealing undergarments from the laundry hamper, and because of his size, he's been caught on several occassions of "counter surfing".

The defendents are on trial and so far, neither one has confessed to the crime and no further evidence has come out....

This trial may take a few days, but we will know which defendant committed this terrible act or if yet again, they were in it together in the trial of "To poo a shoe or not to poo - that is the question".

Absolutely Carole!! We could be:
'Pro-BONE-O Doodle Defense'.

[Carole (*Koda*Monty*Bindi)]

Well done Liza....I look forward to our nextcase together. We obviously make a great legal team. I suggest we start printing our business cards as I suspect these two won't be the only ones in need of pro-BONE-o legal counsel now that its sandal season.......

[Liza, Halle and Finn]

All's well that ends well! Yes, this is good news for the defendants (and the victims), and of course, it doesn't surprise me that PETA wants in, because of course, they're always noising around where fur is concerned! As for the puppyrazzi, you knew as soon as the first photos emerged, these two were going to be media sensations! Just look at them..everyone loves a pretty face!
And now that it's all out in the open(lol), I can divulge a little known truth...Hunter put her up to the whole thing!
I do hope Daisy is feeling better real soon!

[F, Calla & Luca]

These frivolous lawsuits have gone far enough. If you poo in public you have to expect people can and will bulls@#$ about it. Tell D and H to use private facilities next time. The puppyrazzi are everywhere nowadays.

[Lucy & AnnaBelle's Mom]

Wait ..... I just heard from a reliable source that Daisy and Hunter are counter suing for the humiliation of having their poo in the news!

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Great work, defense team! And kudos to the victim for her willingness to forgive! Congratulations to Hunter & Daisy, and Daisy, I sure hope you feel better soon! Court adjourned!

LATE BREAKING NEWS...

This just in from our affiliates WAGS out of Howard City; the prosecution has just entered new evidence into this trial. A forensic team was called to the scene of the crime today when remains of the shoe showed up in fecal matter from Daisy in five different samples since late last night. Daisy showed no remorse or concern until late this evening when the shoe remains started to take affect on her digestive system. Even though the evidence has now given the prosecution the concrete evidence it had been waiting for, the prosecution, in an odd twist, has dropped all charges. The victim of the case, Caron McDonald, said, "It was no question which one of them did it, but now that she is sick from it, I can't go through with it any longer. She is obviously sorry for what happened and I know now that they are not ready to have so much freedom at such a young age".
When we asked her husband, Mike McDonald, on his thoughts of the decision, he simply said, "my wife didn't need new shoes, she just bought 6 pairs from Payless's 'Buy one get one 1/2 off' sale. It was a mistake on her part for not gating off the top of the stairs so that the shoes in the entryway were inaccessible".
So there you have it folks, Daisy and Hunter have been freed from all charges.

WAIT..WAIT....PETA is now involved. The concern is not for the dogs...it's for the leather sandal! Administrators left Washington this morning and will be interviewed on WAGS later this evening. We have no word from the prosecution or defense on this untimely turn of events. It does not bode well for the owners. Reports are, however, the two dogs are pllay bowing.

[Liza, Halle and Finn]

I commend Co-Counsel for her diligence in my absence! I think its evident what needs to happen here... our clients need to be cleared of all charges, be given a big juicy bone as restitution, (along with full access to the family room couch, and abundance of tummy rubs)! If the 'so-called' victims are in agreement with these terms, co-counsel and I are prepared to call off the 'hounds',( aka DPS) in what is clearly a do-MESS-tic issue!

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

I expect we'll also be seeing commentary on the case soon on the Nancy GRRRRace Show!
