Every time we go for a run, Lloyd and Lily have a routine.
First they stare at me, uninterested. Then they stand, stretch, shake their whole bodies, dance and wag.
Next they plop down in front of me in perfect sit-stays.
Lily practically shakes with excitement. She yawns dramatically, looks at the door, looks at me. “Come on, Lady! Hurry up!”
Sometimes Lloyd picks up a leash.
If you have ever hung out with a vizsla, multiply the happy energy and enthusiasm by two. Multiply the loyalty, athleticism and sweetness by two.
That’s Lloyd and Lily.
They are quite the perfect pair.
Lloyd is calm and collected. Serious. Never far from my side. Loyal. Quiet.
Miss Lily is dramatic. Impatient. Goofy. It’s impossible not to smile at her.
They stay at my side while we run. This seems to impress people. We get compliments all the time.
That’s Lloyd and Lily for you. Predictable, very nice dogs. Perfect running buddies.

When my best friend's parents go divorced, we got their Vizsla. She was his hunting dog, but he was going to an apartment, so the dog moved next door to our house, so the kids could keep her. We used to joke that if anyone broke into our house, our GSD would take them down and the Vizsla would lick them to death. She was a wonderful, sweet dog.

Vizslas aren't super common, but it seems like when people get one, they end up getting another!
