Gubbar Singh

This is my dog, mister Gubbar Singh. He's an awesome dog and loves swimming, hot dogs, apples, and any food you give him. He's a golden lab and loves his tennis ball. You have a tennis ball, he will sit and do poses like this to get it(cute, huh?)

I love dogs. I wish I had one in the bay or could take Gubbar to my place, but since he's such a big dog, it wouldn't be ok. He lives in paradise over here and we rescued him from a one bedroom house that had about 8 labs there. Gubbar did have a brother that died about 2 years ago, mister Kalia(a black lab). He died from cancer and it was really sad. But, Gubbar is doing a LOT better without him because he's not bullied and now loves to play fetch and swim in the pool. 

His name comes from an Indian movie, Cholay. People that know that movie- two characters- Kalia(means black) and Gubbar... so thats how he got it. Nicknames include: Gubbs and Gubbar Singh(which is his full name). He's grown up a lot and now is nice to people(doesn't jump up on them), listens for the most part, and just is a little kid when it comes to playing fetch. He does the standard poses: sit, lie down, stay, paw, etc. Gubbar was a dog training dropout but not because he was one- but because his owners were getting lazy in his training. 

I want to get a small dog when i 'grow up' and hopefully, that'll happen. But, Gubbar is a great dog to come home to in Fresno and just hang out with. So if you're in Fresno, and want to come visit mister Gubbar, please have a tennis ball and he'll be your best friend. :)
