Gonna make bellying up to the bar a little difficult, let alone chatting to to the ladies...
Much like you it is H####

Funny you should mention that - I saw some really nice wolf rugs w/full heads the other day, and foxes ... the reindeer would have been overkill, though.
You'll just have to wait and see. 
I am easily moved for sympathy for dogs, far more so than for humans, because dogs do not understand. There is no way to explain that you will return, that the vet will make it all better, that they cannot go shooting today because that is not what today is about. They cannot work out that their misery is finite and will some time end, and so their misery is magnified.

As there is no option stating "forget the full mask sporran so you don't need to worry about what to hang it with" I think I will pass on this one...

You have something against Bambi? or you just don't think Wompet should look like a study wall with it's gawdy trophy?

Thought I would bump this up and see if we could get a few more responses.
Anyone?

Well now, you didn't pass over it though did you?

One skunk sporran - two leather straps. A black strap, with a silver buckle in back, for dressy affairs, evenings, or black belt & shoes. A brown strap, with a brass buckle in back, for all other informal or daywear, or to blend with a weathered tartan. Both straps are from "recycled" thrift store purses. The skunk pelt appears black and white from any distance, but up close a lot of the hairs are actually brown. It goes extremely well with both black and brown leather.

Even if Canuck has a vested interest in his sugestion, he's right. I never thought of that, but the braid would look just as good as a chain.
