Puppies Locked in Heated Custody Battle Over Stick
Ralph and Biggie, two dogs from the Boston, MA area, are going toe-to-toe in the courts for custody of a stick they found while playing in a field last week.
“Ralph employed the time-tested ‘finder’s keepers’ defense,” said legal scholar Fred Axelrod, “while Biggie has argued that he saw the stick first. This one could go ten rounds.”
Both pups are expected to call character witnesses tomorrow.

Guinea Pigs Forced to Share Carrot
Charlie and Vladimir don’t get along. In fact, the guinea pig roommates have loathed one another for years.
“They met via Craigslist,” says Jim Sanchez, a mutual friend. “Vlad was looking for a roommate, and Charlie could make the rent. But immediately, he wasn’t thrilled about the way Charlie would throw his cedar shavings everywhere. It’s been tense ever since.”
Given their history, it was no surprise they weren’t thrilled to share a carrot on Monday morning.
“It was the last one in the fridge, and they were both starving,” says Sanchez. “Breakfast was awkward, to put it mildly.”

Dog Wins 2nd Prize in Regional Spelling Bee
A bearded collie named Chamomile bested 53 opponents in the Northwest Regional American Spelling Bee on Tuesday, taking home second prize. It’s her fifth ribbon in three years.
“This bee was absolutely riveting ” says Carolyn West, who moderated the competition at Chicago’s Twin Oaks High School. “I’ve never seen such fierce determination.”
According to reports, the action heated up when it came down to the final five.
“Chamomile went toe-to-paw with an eighth grader from Michigan,” says West. “We’re talking about words like ‘prospicience’ and ‘esquamulose.’ She barked through those like it was nothing. The second-to-last round almost tripped her up, but she stalled by asking for a definition. Eventually, she worked it out.”
In the end, though, first prize went to AJ O’Connor, a 10th grade student from Oregon.
“I know Chamomile was disappointed, but second place is nothing to sneeze at,” says West. “There’s some serious scholarship money attached, and the top colleges will come calling.”
