[pianotech] Grand piano and dog

[Bill Troop]

First, many thanks to all for tremendously helpful advice on CA.

Second, for probably the first and last time, I can answer a question 
posted here, re dogs spraying on piano legs.

Good long answers are here: http://www.dogchatforum.com/belly_bands_dog.htm

Some short answers are: try aluminum foil on the legs; keep the 
animal out of the room; supervise the animal when in the room; try 
belly bands (dog diapers).

Also, some technicians may not be aware of this, but cats love to 
play inside open grand pianos. Clients should be warned of the 
potential for damage.
