Here is the story that I found on Comcast news. Sick people I tell you!!\n\n\n\nN.Y.-Bound Puppies Used As Drug Couriers\nBy TOM HAYS, Associated Press Writer\n5 hours ago\n\nNEW YORK - Colombian smugglers turned puppies into drug mules by surgically implanting them with packets of liquid heroin, authorities said.\n\nInvestigators believe the ring used the dogs, as well as people who swallowed the drugs, to conceal millions of dollars of heroin on commercial flights into New York for distribution on the East Coast.\n\nTen puppies, including Labrador retrievers, were rescued during a 2005 raid on a farm in Colombia, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration said Wednesday, while announcing more than 30 arrests.\n\nA veterinarian had stitched a total of 3 kilograms of heroin into the bellies of six pups. Three died from infections after the drugs were removed.\n\nThe surviving dogs "are still alive and well, we're told," said John P. Gilbride, head of the DEA's New York office.\n\nColombian police said they adopted three dogs, one of which was being trained to sniff for drugs.\n\nIt was unclear how many dogs might have been used in the smuggling scheme, Gilbride said.\n\n"I think it's outrageous and heinous that they'd use small, innocent puppies in this way," he said.\n\nBesides the pups and human swallowers, authorities said the ring based in Medellin also concealed drugs in body creams, aerosol cans, and the linings of purses and luggage.\n\nRecent raids in Colombia resulted in more than 20 arrests; another 10 suspects were in custody in New York, Florida and North Carolina. About 24 kilograms of heroin was seized, officials said.

When I was in college, I made extra money during some of my vacations by working for my brothers when they ran a mink ranch.  Don't worry, PETA tpyes--it's long since out of business.\n\nAnyway, one of the more delightful jobs I got was removing the false bottoms of cages a month after new litters were born.  They were covered in manure that I had to scrape off into a wheelbarrow.  I believe I had that detail all to myself for all of the ranch's 2000 females that had litters--just imagine the fun I had.  :-)

Me N Whiskeybee (my friend's identity being altered for his protection) stole some things from SPENCER'S gifts a long, long time ago. This would have been around 1989. \n\nI regret doing it, now. I haven't stolen anything else since then, and I wish I had never done it in the first place.\n\nI was looking at some key chains and buttons- mostly "Megamess" buttons and other bric-a-brac- and I told him that I wanted them. He quickly grabbed them and hid them in his wallet. LOL. He was very stealthy, and seemed astute in the art of subterfuge.\n\nWell, like I said, I wish I hadn't done it. Bad things- very bad things- happened to me afterward...although, technically speaking, I wasn't caught at the time.\n\nI have considered going back to the store and handing them an envelope with $20, and a note with an explanation- but I am afraid that I may be prosecuted for larceny. I guess the statute of limitations has expired already, but I haven't decided yet what course of action to undertake.\n\nThe show "My name is Earl" also inspires me to rise above my trailer-trash rooted past, and make amends for all the mean crap I have done over the years. : )

No.  He alleged that the Nicaraguan Contras were selling drugs in the United States to fund their activities in South America.  This has been pretty much proven true through numerous documents and interviews.\n\nWhat he implied in his reporting and following speeches was that the CIA knew this was going on and, since they supported the Contras, allowed it to continue unhindered by police.  The has never been proven (although most related parts of the investigation were sealed as classified documents).\n\nThe biggest claim of the CIA-Contra link came from two drug dealers.  Norwin Meneses Cantarero, who was a former Contra turned drug-lord claimed he was able to operate in the US because the CIA kept the police away.\nAnother was drug kingpin, Oscar Danilo Blandon, who during the early 1980s, was the largest supplier of cocaine in the United States.  Upon his arrest, he claimed he was getting his drugs from Nicaragua, and the CIA was helping him.  Both were seen as drug-dealers trying to salvage themselves through conspiracy theories, but their claims still remain and others have come forward to both verify and disprove their claims.\n\nBut as to the idea of your question that he proved the CIA introduced drugs into black communities to destroy them, it isn't true.  He alleged that the CIA protected drug dealers to give money to the Contras.  And Cocaine was just as destructive to white communities during the time of the alleged CIA-Iran-Contra affair as it was to black ones.

Sure you can do it! Pop over to the local Veterinarian supply, and pick up some horse tranquilizer, good tin snips, some duct tape,alcohol, (3 rolls, at least!), some Cheez Nips, and a case of Coke and a bottle of Jack.\nStep by step:\n1.Have wifey duct tape you to the dining room table.\nInject tranquilizer, and cleanse area with alcohol.\nWifey takes a swig of Jack. Chase it with a few sips of Coke.\n2.Using sterilized snips, cut off manly appendages. Dispose,(pets love these if you boil them a bit), and fold excess saque skin inward. Duct tape.\n3.If hubby wakes up, at this point, hit him on the head with bottle of Jack. Have 3 more swigs of Jack, one of Coke. Proceed.\n4.Pour liberal amounts of alcohol on freshly made Hoo-Hoo, (formerly known as mr.smartypants), more swigs of Jack. More alcohol. Using a hair dryer, aim at area and dry off.(towels would be excruciating at this point).\n5.Move groggy patient (victim?) into bed, fall into bed next to him/her with 1/4 bottle of Jack clutched tightly in your hands. If patient awakens during the night, give him/her the rest of Jack.\n6.Next day, clean up surgical area,(bloody, duct taped table mess). Pop over to the liquor store for a case of Jack.\n7. Continue to keep patient ansethetized with Jack for 3 to 4 days, until incisions have time to close in, forming a slitted appearance.\n8. By next weekend, you girls should be out shopping for your new wardrobe, and sipping Manhattens at the local pub!\nCAUTION: Do not take your wifey's pills, this will only make your boobs enlarged, and do nothing for the south end.\nP.S. Note bottle of Jack in piccy of me, Dr. Zaius.

The actual use of a dog is quite exact. The problem you run into are the training techniques and the fact that certain dogs (and handlers) should not pass the training certs they are required to. Many of the 'good dogs' are almost 100% right and even when they alert, and there is nothing there, there HAS been something there in the past. For example drug and 'people' dogs, those used to find illegal aliens on the border. Many times they will alert to an area and no one or no dope is found. If the dog is good, then you can practically guaruntee that there was something there in the past. Also take for example that bloodhounds are the only dog that can be used for a track and their nose is the only one you can make a warrantless entry. Yet the bloodhounds I worked with couldnt find a bisquit.\nRef testimony: if the dog has an excellent history, I believe that what they alert to should be used in court. Obviously not as the only thing, but is an extremely good indication that something was illegal, there, not right etc. If the dog has a record of mis-alerts then I believe that the 'testimony' of the dog should not be used. Once again, here lies the problem. Its difficult to prove when a dog is mediocre as his failures are rarely reported on, only his successes.

My uncle was building a beach house on the Oregon Coast and I decided to drive up to see it with him so he could show me his progress.\n\nWe got there really late at night because of traffic, me, my uncle and his dog.  As soon as we got there his dog, Bailey, started acting really strangely.  She seemed very agitated and she started growling and the hair on her back was up.  At first we thought someone had broken in the property, but when we went inside it was completely empty.  The dog followed us into the house.\nMy uncle checked the house to make sure it was all locked up and no one had entered it which would explain the dog's strange behavior.  The house was nearly done, but it was empty of all furniture...so we turned on the lights and he started showing me around the place.\n\nWhen we got to the dining room, the dog (which was with us the whole time) began whimpering and growling all at the same time. \nHave you ever seen those cartoons where the dog is standing with a paw in the air, the tail stick straight, ready to go hunting?\nThat's sort of Bailey looked like.  She stood very stiff, looking at an empty wall in the dining room, the hair on her back was up but her eyes were moving, following something that neither I nor my uncle could see.  \nWhatever she was seeing seemeed to be going around the room, like in a acircle and she just followed it with its eyes, growling the whole time until "it" (whatever it was got really close to my uncle.  Than Bailey pounced on it...except to us it was thin air.  She literally jumped through the air and crashed against the wall.  She got up sort of dazed and looked around but whatever it was she had felt or "seen" was gone.  \n\nIt was the weidest and freakiest experience I have ever experienced.  Even though I din't see anything...\n\nThe dog was just acting so weird...like there really was something in there with us.  Whatever it was, she didn't like it.

Rory Emerald = A pranskter, \nF.N.A.(formerly known as) Julian Lee Hobbs\n\n"But it’s hard to tell with Emerald, whose name is a question. He legally changed it to Emerald from Julian Lee Hobbs, so he says."\n\n\nPrankster puts fake ad in RGJ\nCute kitten with two heads lives only in Californian’s imagination\nDon Cox \nRENO GAZETTE-JOURNAL\n9/7/2005 11:37 pm \n   \n     \n \n   \nThe “absolutely adorable” kitten with two heads lives, apparently, only in the somewhat bizarre imagination of a Southern California man who identified himself Tuesday as Rory Emerald, the serial prankster.\n\n“People don’t want to believe it’s not real,” Emerald said by telephone. “They want to believe a two-headed cat exists.”\n\nOn paper it does, or did. The classified advertisement in the Reno Gazette-Journal said:\n\n“KITTEN: Unique kitten with two heads, absolutely adorable, found N. Reno area.”\n\nNo such kitten was found in north Reno or anyplace else. It was all just a joke, according to Emerald, who said he lives in Anaheim, Calif., and puts false advertisements in newspapers across the country for laughs.\n\nThis time he picked Reno.\n\n“It was a friendly hoax,” said Emerald, who described himself as a 38-year-old stay-at-home father who enjoys being funny in print.\n\nThe seven-day ad, which appeared for the last time Wednesday, was placed for free in the “found pets” column of the Gazette-Journal’s classified section. It started running Sept. 1.\n\n“I knew I wanted to do something in the Reno paper,” Emerald said. “I don’t really know why. Something told me to do it in the Reno paper. It turned out to be a good thing.”\n\nA cat with two heads, apparently, attracted attention.\n\nCalls from across state\n\n“I have been getting so many calls from Reno and all over Nevada,” said Emerald, who included his home telephone number in the ad. “I would say it’s definitely up to 50.”\n\nEmerald said he didn’t talk to everyone who answered his ad.\n\n“I was away for the weekend,” Emerald said. “There were a lot of calls from my (answering) service. I turned the phone off. I even got some calls at 1 or 2 o’clock in the morning.”\n\nSometimes, said Kathleen Colombo, Gazette-Journal classified sales manager, it’s hard to tell truth from hoax, especially when someone is placing an ad by phone. All you hear is a voice.\n\n“The hardest part is if you get somebody very convincing,” Colombo said. “You can’t check the body language.”\n\nSince June, Emerald has become famous, at least on the Internet, for his fake ads. There are Web stories about hoax classified ads from Emerald in newspapers in North Dakota, Texas and Montana.\n\nOne of those ads said Elvis Presley’s tour bus had been found near Fargo, N.D., with many personal items from the dead rock ’n’ roll legend. Another ad said ancient Egyptian artifacts had been discovered in the hills near Missoula, Mont.\n\nEmerald said he started the pranks during the Michael Jackson trial this year when he placed an ad in a California newspaper saying a prosthetic nose was discovered near Jackson’s ranch near Santa Barbara, Calif.\n\n“I’m trying to keep the ads funny,” Emerald said.\n\nSometimes, apparently, the laughter dies.\n\nArrested in Beverly Hills\n\nEmerald said he spent about five months in a Los Angeles jail several years ago when he was arrested for theft in a Beverly Hills store while posing as the personal shopper for actress Mia Farrow.\n\n“Yes, that happened,” Emerald said. “I remember getting arrested.”\n\nThe pranks, at least the ones in newspapers, will continue, according to Emerald.\n\n“I’m going to keep doing it until I can’t find anything interesting or fun to put in the paper,” he said. “A bunch of things came to me (Monday) night.”\n\nBut it’s hard to tell with Emerald, whose name is a question. He legally changed it to Emerald from Julian Lee Hobbs, so he says.\n\n\n

No,but I have seen a monkey break a beer bottle and threaten to kill that puppy if it ever came near him again. Almost the same thing,right?

Nope.  But I heard a good story a while ago.  A guy who lived on a farm in rural Alabama (I think) came home and found a guy inside robbing his house.  He pulled a gun on the guy and called the police.  Since he lived so far out in the country, it took the cops a half hour to get there.  So while he was waiting, he forced the burgler at gunpoint to mow his lawn.\n  I love it!

Or go on and get up a posse and hunt them outlaw canines down and haul em back to justice.

Having Police in my family-the answer is yes. Most do specialize in one area. Some are good in many. Mine does people-but sometimes is used for drugs. You have to be able to communicate what you want to the dog. Its treat related (praise and food) and mine would do anything for extras-the dog knows the word find-and you use what you want it to find- its training.
