Guga

Well he is settling in nicely and is very affectionate with mom and dad. He stays close to mom and dad at the moment but today at seven in the morning he did a bit of exploring on his own.

He is missing all four fangs and other teeth as well. He has a lump in his throat, so will go to the vets on Monday. His street name from all the people that knew him during years on the streets was 'Guga', so mom decided to stick with it although nobody likes the name. Guga is a Brazilian tennis champion. He responds to his name and comes when he is called. He eats like a horse and is thin. Mom can feel all of his ribs. He is covered in scars and callouses. He has not had a bath because mom says this will  lower his immune system and she prefers to wait until the vet sees him. He does smell a bit!!!! We all think he should get a good perfume. I am going to post a pic of me soon as this is my web site to, although I will be keeping a low profile. Now I am working out a plan to help his girlfriend and a way to build another kennel here. I am lying on the sofa thinking about it right now.

  1. Guga is so thankful for his new mom and dad and family! We just read up on his namesake, tennis player Gustavo "Guga" Kuerten and the two have some things in common - Kuerten has hip problems, too, and in his hometown his is known as "Cachorro Grande" or "Big Dog." Similar to how we we're calling Guga "Big Brown Lab!"

    We will think good thoughts for Guga's vet visit on Monday.

    Love the photo of his girlfriend - she looks so sweet.
