FYI It is unbelievably difficult to find a 12 gauge 7/8" Captive bead ring. Painfulpleasures.com is an awesome site. Does anyone know where Fry St. Ink moved to?

Okay, the dog is fine, but the name had to go. Her new name is Aleah, meaning "wise mother". COOLEST THING EVER: I can feel her babies moving around!
