Plot

A couple of dogs called Stress and Relax leave in search for the Cariniana legalis, the oldest tree of Brazil.[5] They are not sure what city the tree is. While Relax thinks only about having fun and get to know the culture of different parts of Brazil, Stress becomes increasingly eager to find the tree as he hopes to get rich selling souvenirs of it.
