Part dog, part amphetamine junky Gamba is the brains of the outfit.

If there’s any trouble, you can guarantee Gamba has caused it – even if he manages to run off and leave Zulu to take the blame. Gamba is the one that finds the escape routes in any barricades we try to put up. Gamba is the one that, after Zulu has retrieved the latest stuffed toy will utterly eviscerate the corpse.

Gamba is mummy’s little baby. He does spend his time on his mum’s knee – one of the advantages of the fact that he stopped growing around two months after we brought him home. He’s also a little… well… deformed. His legs are wonky, meaning that when he stands he looks a bit like a ballerina. But his mummy and daddy still love him… even if he is a bit broken… and a bit mental… and still wees and poos in the house.

(It actually seems a bit weird how much we love our pets once I write it down)
