Love him even though.

Chewed the laundry basket and wife's work trousers in it.

Chewed at least 3 pairs of children's school shoes.

Chewed the entire floor of utility room .

Cost me a small fortune to replace lounge floor from the puppy potty training stage ( well probably the wife using it as a reason to get me to decorate the lounge).

Wouldn't change him for the world though.

Oh and since the last post a few hours ago I can now add pulling bag of dog food down and helping himself to a feast as well as pulling the back apart for fun!!! I guess he's not ready to be left out the crate for a couple of hours just yet!! :)

This topic is hilarious...I am literally in tears. I'm a first time vizsla owner and didn't know the depth of what I was getting into but, I happen to be the type of person that is attracted to ALOT of personality, quirky or otherwise. I am completely committed to giving my vizsla everything she needs for a fulfilled life. I read these forums every day for tips and guidance. I was told by another member "They are not dogs they are Vizslas" I completely agree. I have never met anything like them. They are truly ONE OF A KIND. Here goes..

I love my V even though...

When my husband and I take her on a walk she suddenly decides to play cowboy and indians and wraps us up in her leash. I have rope burns on the back of my legs to prove it! :eek:

I can only get anything done when she is taking a nap ::)

Bless her heart she is such an angel when she's sleeping :-*

Love her to pieces :-* :-* :-*

When I'm sat all snuggled up and he comes in and sits very politely in front of me with that knowing gleam in his eye a very soft tap on the sofa and a second later i have my very own boney bodyed blanket and a little glass of red , i do love my Friday nights :).

I still love my little guy even though...

...trips to the pet store take 5 times longer than they should because he has to meet EVERYONE and everyone wants to know what kind of dog he is.

...he is a pillow hog.

...he burps in our face when he goes to give kisses.

When I walk the neighborhood, more people know my dog's name than mine.

She knows 2 names - Daddy and Jose (our landscaper)....who is Mommy?

I love my Vizsla even though:

She has dug numerous holes in the back yard >:/

She takes up far more than her share of the bed!

She steals socks like it's her job!

She sometimes is too quick when coming inside after a rain storm and leaves a trail of mud on the floors, carpet, and furniture...that's a time where I keep reminding myself how much I love my little trouble maker!

Also, I still love my girl even though each morning I am woken up to a paw in the eye or all 42lbs of her on my head :)

I still love Levi even though he

Always steals socks from the laundry hoping for a game of keep away

At nighttime he whines until he gets to chase the laser light pointer

Jumps on top of kitchen table when nobody is looking!

Be careful with that laser light pointer, please. They have been shown to cause seizures, and the Vizsla breed has been shown to have a tendency toward developing epilepsy. I had one of those pointers a few years back, and after reading a bit about them, I gave it away.

p.s. Even if you discount the risk of epilepsy, the laser pointers can lead to obsessive behavior in your dog. He might start staring at light/shadow interplay all the time, etc. So just be cautious about it. :)

My Penny is a pillow hog too!!! Grabs socks and underwear & just runs around with them, trying to get me to chase her.... lots of digging, lots of chewing, ruined my favorite heels, boots, and flip flops. But then she gives me those sweet puppy eyes in the morning so I tell her to hop on the bed, and next thing I know she has thrown herself on top of me and my boyfriend (sometimes right in-between our heads). She just wants to cuddle and be as close as possible. It's become a ritual.

So how could I not love her??!! =)

@ mswhipple - thanks for the info on the laser pointer. I knew about the epilepsy but didn't know the light could possibly induce it. No worries though we are currently weaning him off of the light because he's gotten to big to chase it in the house and just to dangerous to do it outside. I'm looking for something else to take its place though - any ideas please feel free to email me. I'm open to suggestions. We do not hunt him and he seems to have strong prey drive and although he gets a great deal of exercising on and off leash the light seemed to satisfy his hunt urge.

If Levi is already getting plenty of exercise, then I think maybe what you're asking about is games to play...

There is a "search" box on the upper right-hand side of your screen, just above the ads. Here are two threads you could read through to get some really good ideas. Just type the thread title into the box and press "search".
