Keep Mauser on a short lease at first. Don’t want him to go off half-cocked. ---

Baker - I’ve been on and off the boards for quite a while recently, and don’t visit MPSIMS all that much when I do. So I missed the last thread about Nathan: > [@](#): > > Goodbye Nathan, my baby. You were the best dog ever. I’m so sorry I couldn’t make you better. Isn’t it weird how much better they make us, though? I’m so sorry for your loss, and I’m so happy for your new Mauser. I love the name, and may have to download some Cussler books because of it. ---
