[nagdu] dogs and mosh pits don't mix

[Mark J. Cadigan]

Janice,

I personally have not seen one large enough, and the ones I have seen are 
not that sturdy. But, I'm certain they exist, I just have never seen one. I'd 
love any recommendations. The other thing, is if it was big enough, I'd have 
to measure my available Flore space to see if I could even set one up.



Mark
