George and Gordo’s Day on The Bray

October 21, 2025 by Jenna

George is currently going through an introduction process with Cy’s group members. Today, George spent his day with Gordo. Gordo and George have seemingly been fast friends from the start. They seem very comfortable together. They spent their day exploring The Bray and spending the day soaking up the sunshine. Check out today’s video above!

    I’ve loved George from the very beginning. Seems to be a sweet, gentle, loving guy. And I like him more every time I see him. So glad he’s found a permanent home.

    Thanks, Jenna. George and Gordo, Brothers of the Bray. It’s so great seeing them run and climb. Hugs are an added delight.

    Glad George is happy and fitting in well, just wish the males would offer him more reassurance or affectionate hugs which he gives so freely. Burrito is a hugger but I’m not sure Jaime would be as welcoming as the other two groups have been.

      We haven’t seen him with Honey B yet, lol.
      Gordo is kind of a loner in his own group, has been my impression. Very different from Burrito, who has always been the king of reassurance, even back in his rowdy days. They’re just different.
      But yes, my heart broke when he wanted a hug and Gordo left him hanging. Poor George left with his high 5 hanging in the air….

    I see George is definitely challenging the humans to a race!
    Sweet boy has the best droopy play face I’ve seen since Jojo.

    I too love the name Gaynell came up with—Brothers of the Bray and this includes J.B. since he is the running mate to exuberant George. It must make each and every one of you feel so proud to see those two boys hanging out together comfortably. Although I was a little disappointed when Gordo didn’t hug George back. But it looked like Gordo had better things to do. 🙂
