When we arrived home from my teenage son's football game we discovered several items either torn up or misplaced. There was also evidence of a canine presence on our kitchen table and counter. The dogs were seated in separate chairs with little halos hanging over their heads. This prompted an investigation into the mystery of the unknown culprit.
Upon questioning what happened, each dog denied any involvment. While paper towels aren't a burden to clean up, clean socks and other clothing items needed to be rewashed. Hair fibers were all brown in color, and since three of the four amigos are black and tan, that leaves one possible suspect. Ozzy is the only one that is completely brown, so all suspicions were placed on him. He denied any involvment, and claimed that the hair fibers were circumstancial. He obviously watches too much CSI, and thought he could weasel his way out of this situation by casting doubt as to his guilt. I wasn't buying it, and he knew it.
After a serious interrogation, Ozzy finally broke and confessed to the crime. His reason for committing such an offense was his disappointment in not being able to go to the game with us. His behaviour was idicative of his rebelious nature, and he was protesting the only way he knew. We decided that he would be grounded for a month. He will not be going to any football games, so this probably means more protests are forthcoming. Hell hath no fury like a small dog scorned.
