Dio, the Dog of the Day
Name: Dio
Age: Two years old
Gender: Male Breed: Hungarian Vizsla
Home: Aurora, lllinois, USA
 
   Dio (Hungarian for walnut) should be honored because he has so many attitudes and he is so smart and funny.

    It started out when Dio was two months old. My dad went to Canada to get him. When my dad went to the lady's house she told him to give Dio a cheeseburger. So what do you think my dad did? Well he went to McDonald's and got a cheeseburger for the dog! When my dad gave him the cheeseburger Dio first ate the bun then lettuce tomato cheese and stuff like that. You know what happened he saved the meat for last.

    Since that time, he's graduated first from obedience class, crawled under the bed, sleeps under blankets like humans do and also putting himself in timeout when he's been naughty. He sits at the door and makes funny sounds till some body lets him out. He got a tatoo on his ear for security reasons. Something that is in danger in our house are our shoes! Dio takes our shoes and puts them in his "secret hideout" ... under the bed! Because of this I have to go under the bed to clean all that shoes. Something funny that he does is makes a puppy face ... Literally!

    Dio is a great outdoor companion. He love to fetch tennis balls and chase after the birds and Larry the squirrel. And you know what I just realized he is a hunting dog! He gave us the biggest scare two weeks ago when he had a seizure. The whole family was sleeping on the floor next to his bed watching him to get better. We love this spoiled Vizsla ...
