Marla Mauser

Today we adopted a new puppy and overall, I couldn't be more pleased with her. She is the most docile, obedient, focused, and attentive dog I have ever met. We named her Marla Mauser for two reasons. A) I figure she will be viewed by Max as the bane of his existence. Therefore, I thought of the line in Fight Club where the main character said "If I had a tumor, I'd name it Marla." Second, she seems to be mainly German Shepherd, so I let Nathan pick out a German name. He picked Mauser. I think she's got the coolest name of any dog. And I think she's close to perfect for our family. She's going to excel at training classes, but she's going to be a very large dog. She may be part Rottweiler. Her other major drawback right now is that she's got worms, and of course, she's not yet housebroken (which is how I found out she had worms). Without further ado, pictures!

I suppose that I'm the only one who noticed that Nathan picked a Police Academy character's name (though I highly doubt it was with that in mind)...

Congrats. Enjoy her while she's still small enough to pick up.
