Oh Jesus - I didn't know that part. Wasn't she hit by a car? Or am I
remembering wrong? How anyone could choose to kill someone's pet is
beyond me.

The initial story I put out to my friends was that she was hit by a
car. I posted that here because I didn't want to get into long sagas.

According to the vet, impact by a car was unlikely. He was so puzzled
he did a free autopsy. The injury was too small, and it came from a
blow that was angled from below rather than a lateral impact. It
appeared to be the result of being stuck with some kind of tool, in
exactly the right spot to inflict a fatal injury.

I don't have proof that my neighbor did it, but I have good reason to
suspect him.

I don't have any proof, or even direct evidence, to go on. I've never
met the guy, and I don't want to get drawn into his world. I suspect
he's the kind of person who creates problems for himself without
anyone's help. The main reason I know he's got a problem with me is
because he went to a number of county agencies with far-fetched
stories that didn't check out. He didn't do himself any favors with
that move.

Sounds like a recipe for trouble; to himself mostly. Sounds like you are
being very wise steering clear of him.

D-O-G stuff

The vet tech class at school where I'm taking some classes has animals
they practice on for the year. I saw the future techs out walking dogs
on Thursday.

There was a sweet dog who is very quiet and slow to believe you will be
nice to her. She came to the school from a cancer research facility so
has been in a lab environment for awhile. She is very shy and afraid,
but started warming up to me. I talked and talked to her, then stopped
petting her, and she slowly walked over to me and shyly looked to me for
more pets. She has big eyes that want to trust, and they will rip out
your heart.

She's like a small black lab, but with a pointier nose. She's all black
with a little gray on the muzzle. I didn't ask her age. She's probably
about 25 lbs. She has a few places shaved on her legs and mouth, where I
think they've been practicing procedures on her. I just wanted to grab
her and get her into a nice home where she can just be a pampered dog.

They find homes for these dogs at the end of spring quarter -- so it
would be around June '07.

If anyone is near the Pacific Northwest and interested, I will try to
deliver!
