No, it isn't my brothers, it is my veterinarians. It is my dog Star's brother. When I brought her in for the first examination when she was 6 weeks old, he was was very impressed with her. Since the breeder had some more in the litter, I went back and purchased one for him. He had just lost one of his dogs a few weeks before, and I felt that it was a fitting present to someone that has helped to keep my dogs alive, and when their time had come to an end, he was always there for me and the dogs. In reality, the dog became a present to his wife, since she is the one that the dog has attached himself to. She is also the one that is responsible for the crazy picture of him.
Here is a picture of Star (the female). She is smaller and lighter in color, but has the same goofy looks and actions.
