twice a month.

Can you sell me a

puppy of his?

Maybe later on.

In a while.

Reserve one for me.

A male.

Hi.

- See you later.

- Later, don't forget!

It's all set.

I've just talked with Omar.

He's got a female dog

in heat. She's perfect.

Old and experienced.

She's gone through heat

twice without a service.

He'll get her pregnant

just by looking at her.

What puppy was

he talking about?

He wants a son of his.

Haven't I told you?

They sell like sliced bread.

And once he

acquires the taste...

This b*tch has

no papers...

but god, is she good!

Old and no papers.

You must pay me instead.

If your dog doesn't learn with

this b*tch, he'll never learn.

Carmelo!

Is Malena in heat?

- She's just begun.

- Bring her in.

Pamela is her daughter.

If he doesn't learn

with the two of them...

What a party!

Bring the female dog, please.

Help me, Villegas.

Let him loose,

he's getting mad.

Come on, Lechien!

Come on, the little b*tch.

Lechien is going mad.

Lechien! That way!

He went inside.

This is a new breed, pal.

Something is wrong

with this dog.

Maybe he suffered

some childhood trauma.

Since he had

no owner...

Let's help him mount.

So that we can teach

him the way to do it.

He needs some help.

I'll help you.

Come on, Lechien!

What's wrong with him?

Come on!

Nothing is going on

with this dog!

That can't be!

You'll have to do

artificial insemmination.

That's for posh dogs.

Everybody will laugh

at me at the Association.

If not, you will have

a dog for decoration.

He's a wonderful specimen.

His only problem is his libido.

He has no libido.

I've seen similar cases.

But this is an

extreme case.

Keep in mind the

dog is quite grown up.

And what about celery?

No, those things are...

Chinese stuff.

Not credible.

Anyway, he is a beautiful specimen.

He has an excellent character.

It's a dog with many skills.

It can be trained

for many activities.

To bring you the morning paper,

for example.

A very domestic dog.

Do you know something?

That guy may be a vet or whatever...

but any time, this dog

will give us a surprise.

That's Animal Business.

Stay here in Baha Blanca.

Get a job,

you are a mechanic.

Forget about the dog,

for a week or two.

You know I won't

charge you for that.

What's wrong, Villegas?

You can call anytime.

When you settle down,

take him with you.

Relax, you know I will

take good care of him.

I almost forgot!

I paid for the dog's

inscription at the show.

$25.

Keep that paper.

It's always a record.

Here comes the bus!

Can you open

the luggage compartment?

Is it a dog?

Yes, but he's used

to traveling.

Be good, Lechien.

Don't worry, I'll take care of him.

As soon as you settle down,

give me a call.

GOD IS LOVE:

- Good morning!

- Hi.

- Is there a phone here?

- Not here.

- How much are these alfajores?

- Six pesos.

Please.

I brought this for you.

I can't accept it.

It must have taken

a lot of work.

It doesn't matter.

You can use it

in the kitchen...

This is not for the kitchen.

Or you can just keep it.

OK, thanks, I'll take

good care of it.

It's a cat?

Right?

It's a puma.

- Yes, a puma.

- Sure, a puma.

And the dog?

Walter took him,

the big guy.

He has space for him.

I love dogs.

But it's a problem

to travel with them.

Did I tell you I had had a

Pomeranian in Buenos Aires?

When my dad fell ill,

I had to come here...

and left it with a friend.

Then, she told me

the dog got very sad...

and after a while,

she died.

You get used to

a dog's company.

It's like the people you love.

You don't notice

how much you love them...

till they are gone.

Good morning

- How are you, ma'am?

- Well, yeah.

Walter?

Every time you come,

Walter is not in.

They are driving him mad

with the races.

It's about the dog?

Walter tried to call you,

but he didn't know where.

The dog has escaped.

He escaped?

It must have been early,

about 5 A.M.

I got up at 8 and

he was already gone.

Poor Walter,

he was so worried.

Good morning!

Haven't you seen the white dog

that Walter had, the caretaker?

I saw it a few days ago.

He was training him.

Haven't you seen him today?

Not today.

He's a good dog,

isn't he?

Yes.

- What breed?

- A Dogo.

Maybe they've

stolen it from you.

Watch out for the people

from "El Progreso".

People are wild out there.

I heard they

eat dogs there.

Boy, have you seen

a big white dog?

Have you seen a big

white dog around here?

No.

Not here.

Look around there,

the brick factory.

- The brick factory?

- Yes.

- Towards the smoke?

- Yes, over there.

I am looking for

a big white dog.

I've seen him, over there.

Thanks.

Bombn?

Bombn?

Haven't you seen a

white dog around here?

He must be over

by the bricks.

Near the pile of bricks.

Lechien?

Come here, Bombn.

Lechien?

Bombn?

Good morning.

- Going to Viedma?

- No, Baha Blanca.

- Can you give us a ride?

- Yes, sure, get in.

I'll just move the dog.

- Does he bite?

- No, he is friendly.

- Thanks.

- Thank you, sir.

Do you plan to stay

long in Buenos Aires?

We hope so,

don't know yet.

We are going there,

because there is work.

We are trying our luck.

- Have you ever been there?

- No. And you?

I haven't gone before,

and now...

What do you do?

- I breed dogs.

- That's nice.

I am an exhibitor.

What is it like

to be an exhibitor?

You present dogs

in exhibitions.

You can win great prizes.

And do you have many?

At the moment,

only this one.

But in the future,

if things get better...

No, I meant if you

had won many prizes.

Yes, a few.

Not so many yet.
