Hello, I'm Big John

We changed his name into Gigi, after our favorite soccer player Gigi Buffon!

Big John's Story

He is very playful, loves long walks and he’s getting ready for his first big travel this summer to Europe. He loves to be dressed, as he gets cold very easily. He is scared of loud rain, thunders and loud wind :( but he's getting braver every day :)
