He weighed 313lb and I took him in MA.
The rug cost me approximately $1100 plus tax.
It was worth it. I took some pics last night w/ my digital, but they didn't come out too well. I can't get the whole thing in the camera in the little room it is in. I will post the pics I did get today hopefully. There was too much sun coming trough the blinds as well, which makes it look like it has stripes!

Here is one pic of it. The pic came out ok... but not good enough. I'll get some more when I can...once it's hung. This is the only place I could put it for now....
