THE SUSPECT:

Considering there are other suspects who had access to the Birkenstock, I think that you would need DNA testing to conclude that it is, indeed, Kai's spit.

I would have to appeal the decision based on lack of evidence in this case. Other suspects still include other dog Mikki, both kids, husband (nah, he wouldn't chew the shoe; he knows you would just buy another pair), and you. Yes, you. Motive: buying another pair (don't forget, I'm your sister, I know you). Also, if said item was left outside, it could be the Yarn Harlot's thieving rat-bastard squirrel, although said rbs' only previous offenses involved fiber.

Aw, how could such a sweetie doggie chew on your Birkies? I think it was you on a sleep walking moment, and you just don't want to admit it.

Awww, he missed you! Your Birkies are lovely. I haven't seen them with a floral design on them. Could a cobbler save them?

That sweet doggie was born a brat and continues to be one!
And the number one reason why I know that it was him that chewed the shoe and not me - If I was going to chew my own shoe I would do it in December so that I had time to order another pair from Germany so that I could actually wear them in the summer! : )

I've never owned a pair of birkenstocks, but by the looks of your picture they can't be very comfortable, lol.

No really, sorry about the dilema but I loved reading the story and the comments too.

Would you share the website address for the German Birkies mail order, please? Even with dog chomps your Birkies are pretty!

I got those Birks a couple of years back from an on line company, www.jestelkg.com. Be prepared to wait, though! They take forever for shipping! But the prices were so good I couldn't resist.

Aw! Take a good look at your beautiful suspect........Hmmm sure does have that guilty look.

Loved the story and the detective work but your suspect may just be covering for the real perp.
