fyi, needles are easily obtained in any home & ranch type store.

Tractor Supply for example. These places have vet supplies and you can buy needles with merely your signature (and a little money of course.)

Home and Ranch stores rock... They also have rope, chain, fasteners, tie downs, pulleys, winches, collars and leashes, carriage and lunging whips, crops and bats, cages... more like a Home & Dungeon store.
