I will have a pair of scales in the morning so I will be able to give you an exact weight on him, instead of trying to judge.

Oh, got you! That would make sense.
No not at the moment, I'm not one to weigh myself and I am out of town so anyone I can borrow from isnt around right now. And I have never heard of a hanging luggage scale, mainly because I dont travel that much.
