So, I'm going to share my story, too! ha! Even though Cabeza isn't a full Newf..he's quite Newfish...
His name means "head" in Spanish. When we first got him, he was a foster with nasty heartworm. He was very skinny, but his head was still really big. We called him "The Big Head Dog" for about a month. Or just "Big Head". Or sometimes, "Biggun". Anyway...once we had had him for 2 months and 2 rounds of HW treatment..hah aha...and fell in love with him and decided to keep him...We realized that we couldn't continue to call him Big Head Dog anymore. So, Cabeza he became.
