Sorry that I haven't gotten back to everyone with the results. Unfortunately I came down with a bout of kidney stones and ended up with (2) trips through the E/R and an overnight hospital stay and a surgical procedure involving a part of my anatomy that I normally consider an exit. Looks like it's going to be a few more days before am well enough to be able to start twisting wrenches but as soon as I am... I'll let you all know what the results are.
Hope you get better soon and get that dog on the road.
