Gringo is a generally upbeat, playful youngster.
Always seeming super happy, his overly enthusiastic nature makes him a bit annoying to those who live with him. Anything and everything makes him happy, especially being around his family and making friends. He'll always go out of his way to help someone, or at least try to. His care-free attitude, though it can be annoying, always lightens the mood at the end of the day. When it comes to smarts, he's no border collie. In fact, he's quite dim-witted. His sweet, caring nature, though, overshadows his lack of brains. Being quite immature and naiive, Gringo always only sees the best in others, and almost seems to overlook their negative traits. He has a blissful ignorance of the world's troubles. His overly-friendly personality does tend to be a flaw sometimes, as he often gets himself into sticky situations when trying to befriend those he probably should not, such as the local humans, or random wolves he meets. Despite his flaws, he is wholly, undoubtedly loyal to his big brother, and would do anything for him. Thanks to that, he tends to be a bit clingy to Jackdaw, and doesn't seem to notice the many times Jackdaw gets annoyed with him.

Gringo was born in the human village on his home island to his stray mother. Right from the beginning life threw difficulties at him. His tiny family being only local strays, the humans and other dogs looked down upon them, forcing them to scavenge if they wanted to eat. Somehow, Gringo was the only survivor of his litter of 4. Around 7 months of age, his mother grew ill thanks to the constant rain, and would eventually die. Little Gringo took to life on his own, getting by by rummaging through the trash bins or begging for scraps. Despite his situation, he remained optimistic. A few months later, he bumped into an older dog, whom he would come to discover was his half-brother, them both having the same mother. The other dog, Jackdaw, took in the youngster, and began trying to teach him the ways of the world. When Gringo's short attention span lead him to epically fail all hunting lessons, much to Jackdaw's annoyance, he eventually decided scavenging would be the best way for the youngster to get food, and would often send him off into the village to find some. Gringo loved doing little tasks for his brother, and did so whole-heartedly. It was around this time when he found his love for garbage in general, enjoying rummaging through the bins, and occasionally rolling around in the clutter.
Jackdaw was scarcely home, off busy with whatever it was he was doing. When his brother was absent, Gringo would take to adventuring around and making friends. Eventually, Jackdaw met his mate, and had pups of his own. Gringo gleefully welcomed his new niece and nephew, plus little Courfeyrac, who was sort of a packaged deal with Ashera as she moved in. He often runs around and romps with the youngsters, enjoying having someone to play with finally, and lives contently with their weird little pack.

Probably my favorite of your characters. Though Oko is pretty close. Jackdaw right behind him. Though without the likes of Kelso, Gringo's persona wouldn't shine as much. Thus if I was to split points with the average between them equaling an A, they'd pretty much all be between A- and A+ on my lovable chart. Though I tend to like quirky characters more so I am biased.

Hehe yep.
This character was based on a stray dog I met on a missions trip to Peru that the local kids named Gringo.
I thought it was pretty funny and adorable and thus, this guy was born. X3
