Gaius

Gaius was named after either a Roman Emperor or a doctor on Battlestar Galactica - depending on who you ask. 

The guys and I decided to get an English Mastiff because we wanted a "real dog" that wouldn't either be terrorized by the ferrets or try to eat them.

We couldn't have chosen a better breed.

Because he's our baby, we were real shutter-bugs when it came to documenting his growth.  Over the course of sixteen months our friends and family were amazed at how quickly this adorable little puppy grew to out-weigh almost everyone in the household.
