Vinnie, the Dog of the Day
Name: Vinnie
Age: One year old
Gender: Male Breed: Italian Greyhound
Home: Brooklyn, New York, USA
 
   This is Vinnie, he is an Italian Greyhound. He is very affectionate and gives hugs and kisses and headbutts and is quite laid back (as you can see!)

    Hello, I am Vinnie! My Mommy found me on the Internet! She likes to humiliate me by dressing me in funny outfits and then photographing me. I just pose to humor her though. ;-) I was born in Missouri in the countryside and my original family flew me into the big city of New York with my cousin (show dog) for the Westminster Dog Show. I watched my cousin compete and then my new Mommy came to adopt me. I was very shy at first and only four months old, but now I am very peppy and full of personality! I love to play with my pals at the doggy park, especially the big dogs. They can never catch me! Some hobbies I enjoy are playing with and chewing on the cat's neck, or pulling up the corners of Mommy's expensive newly-installed wall-to-wall carpeting and ripping up the padding! I can't wait until Mommy comes home after work, I get so excited I want to explode and I jump into her arms and throw my paws around her neck and cover her with kisses! I am a very affectionate doggy and I love women! I guess that's the Italian in me.
