No,but I can't spell it either,and it's close enough I know what you mean.
Two said it was debarked, one didn't go into it, and one said it wasn't debarked. I was going by the latter, but if the majority rules, the dog may have been debarked. And--as has been pointed out here, some dogs who have not been debarked don't bark when they should.
The point still remains: why didn't the dog at least interfere with the prowler, unless the prowler was known to the dog, that is?
I am GUESSING that with guests in the house,the father put the dog in a room so he wouldn't attack/bother any of the guests going to the bathroom,etc,etc,etc.
, it's never been mentioned, but I wonder if Westerfield has bite marks somewhere on his person?
I have no idea. What I think is that he became a suspect after the police interviewed the parents about who they had had contact with the previous night,and when the police ran his name through their computer,they got a "ping". Chances are that this guy has been arrested on child molestion chanrges some time in the past,but had the charges dropped or beat it in court.
