Good choice on going with a fixed bridge. I think having a trem would just make it harder for your dog to keep it in tune, which would increase frustrations.

Dogs have more sensitive hearing than humans, don'tchaknow.

But what if I have an ex-girlfriend named Balrog?

Or, perhaps more accurately, what if she reminded me of a Balrog in our fights, and ended up massing more than a Balrog after she ran off with my best friend and got knocked up?
