Not trying to thread jack but what is a reasonable time to get a bear rug back? Mine has been at the taxi for 20 months. Not Michelle, someone else up North.

Pretty easy to tell when someone's home if you are calling from the same house.

Hi Michelle, this is Michelle, are you available?  :chuckle:   

Somebody start the popcorn.......

May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

"Reasonable" is what the taxi quoted you when you dropped it off.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

Mine took 16 months. Taxi told me between a year and a year and a half.

Inuendo, wasn't he an Italian proctoligist?

A novel concept. Sticking to what he told you.

Yes h20hunter.  I have talked with Her several times since dropping my Bear off.  I mentioned that earlier.  Most recently was last week.  I will be going by after my Bear comes back from the Tanning.  By then I should be able to make up my mind on a rug or mount.  Hopefully.

I'm not going to act as a go between.  If she wants to respond to your guys questions she is perfectly capable of coming on here and doing it herself.

She has only had it for about 4 months.  She has 14 months or so to work on it.

This made me laugh out loud.
Literally.
It took me a second, but I picked up what you laid down.

i make payments on my animals....  They are done by payment. The more I pay the more work is done on it. 
  Thank god for him since I have 2 bears, and a cougar there now. If it wasn't for him I would never be able to have them done.
  I am confident if I could pay up front he would have a bear back to me under 12 months.
  I am not rich so I choose the payment method. :chuckle:
