Big Brother

The brothers was given to Eliana from a dear friend in 2010. When Eliana Putri Antonio first met the twins, she thought the pups were sister and brother. “Both of us turned out to be males, so mum named us Buba, for my brother, and Baba, for myself,” one of the dogs would say. Eliana explained that their names are adapted from the Aussie slang word that means “baby”. “The name has inspired us to love one another,” Buba added. “We grew up together and never split up, have shared unique habits, and always sleep side-by-side every single night.” When Buba and Baba wake up in the morning, Eliana or the babysitter usually takes them outside for morning walks. “I really enjoy it, because that’s where I can meet our friends, play around, or learn new tricks,” Baba said. “Unlike me, my brother Buba, doesn’t like going outside to socialise: but when it comes to food, for sure he eats more than me.”
