    Hmm,

    Perhaps one of our LE brethren will loan you a few plates from their Second Chance vest to carry in your next sporran.

    I have used that saying for many years, could not tell where it originally came from, but I think it is from Scotland

    Brings to mind the phrase "Let sleeping dogs lie." Glad you were not hurt.

    It retrospect I prefer to think that he was protecting me from that tassled thing that was attacking my dangly bits.
    Sounds like what my 85 lb Rott mix does with muskrats and woodchucks, except what Mog would've had the sporran dead in four shakes.
    Just one reason I won't wear a fur sporran around the dogs.
