GOSSIP CORNER — all the news that's barely fit to print.
A pie has gone missing from a windowsill on Mill Lane, and this publication can exclusively reveal that Boyd was seen in the vicinity, looking innocent at what witnesses called "a suspicious volume."
"He's a big dog," said one neighbor. "When a big dog tries to look innocent, the whole street knows."
Boyd's representatives have issued no statement, though he was later observed napping in a sunbeam with what one witness described as "crumbs of plausible deniability" on his chest.
The pie's owner has declined to press charges, noting the windowsill was "asking for it, honestly." The Gossip Corner considers the case closed, the pie delicious, and Boyd innocent in the way that only a dog with pie crumbs can be.
