CNN.com - JonBenet Ramsey�suspect working as teacher - Aug 17, 2006

I was amazed when they announced that they found the killer of that little girl. I really believed that the killer would never be found. I was very pleased that they got the guy.

But the more I hear about this the more I think he may just be a nut with some very considerable personal problems.

1. CNN said that he read where this guy’s wife said that he wasn’t even in Colorado when the tragic event happened. She says he was in Alabama. Maybe she’s wrong.

2. ABCNews quoted the killer as saying that he drugged her and accidentally killed her. But the autopsy found no drugs or alcohol in her system. I guess it could be a drug they didn’t test for or he did a lousy job of drugging her or she was already dead.

All I’m saying is that it wouldn’t suprise me if it turned out that this wasn’t the guy. He may still be dangerous and need to be behind bars, but maybe not for the crime of which he’s accused.

If you are a regular reader, you will know that a while back my dog sired a litter of nine purebred australian shepherds. The stud-fee we agreed on was one puppy, which we had planned to give to my wife’s sister’s family. All the puppies came out looking beautiful and are clever and friendly. My kids have been visiting them on a regular basis for the last few weeks. I get over to the neighbor’s house once every week or two.

As my wife and kids visited the puppies they began to get attached to a little black and white one. (Who can see what’s coming?)

So we decided to keep it. Based on everything I had read last year, when we got our first australian shepherd, Peterman, I had understood that puppies are normally removed from their littersafter eight weeks of age because before that they are still learning how to be dogs from their mothers and they aren’t really ready to be away from them yet.

Well, here it is seven weeks after their birth and we’ve agreed to take our two puppies home. “Meggie” will go to my wife’s sister and “Buckaroo” will stay with us permanently. The woman who is has the puppies now is keeping the mother separated from the puppies for most of the day. She only spends five minutes a day with them or so. After five minutes of being with the puppies she howls to come in and then howls to go back out. It sounds like the poor dog (who’s a super dog, by the way) is having a tough time of it.

We feel like it won’t be a problem take the puppies a week early partially because they will have each other and also because Peterman will be there to continue teaching them how to be a dog. They will also be welcomed in to our Solomon-pack and will get lots of good attention.

So the puppies come home today! They get their last set of shots this afternoon and I will go and fetch them after dinner! Isn’t that great?

It is.

We’re very excited about it. Liz has a really good/attractive gate to go across the doorway from the kitchen to the dining room and we will use the same pen for Buckaroo that we used for Peterman last year.

So this is very good news.
