Adopt a Vizsla Mix Dog




Lita is our foster dog from Dogwood Rescue. She is listed as a Vizsla Weimaraner mix but I'm not sure about the Weim part. She has some characteristics of a Vizsla, head and tail, but she is a black dog and I think she may be crossed with a whippet.


She came from either Utah or Idaho. Ended up at the dog shelter because her owners got divorced and neither could keep her. They had her since she was a puppy so perhaps that's how they knew her breding to be a Vizsla Weimaraner mix.



Lita is an adorable dog. Very friendly. Gets along with everyone. Loves to snuggle. She will get up on the bed or couch to snuggle with someone so a home where dogs are allowed on furniture is a must.



Lita will need to go to dog obedience classes. She knows to sit. But not stay. She is very good at recall and will come immediately when called. She walks well on a leash and is smart enough to get herself untangled.


Right now she is being fostered at our house in Cloverdale. However we are undergoing renovations and she will be transferred back to Dogwood Rescue's operator in West Vancouver later in July. Please see her profile on Petfinder for more information.

Adopt a Weimaraner

If anyone is looking for a Weimaraner dog, I am fostering one from Dogwood Rescue.

Dauma is 6 and a half years old. She is very affectionate. She loves to snuggle and give kisses. She likes to get up on couches and beds to snuggle with people. Dauma is perfect for someone who likes a snuggly dog on the furniture. She’s very playful and loves playing with squeaky toys.

She is housebroken, crate trained, knows how to use a doggy door, good with other dogs, and good around horses. I don’t have cats, so it is unknown how she is with them. She’s good riding in the car and has romped at off leash dog parks with no problems. She walks well on a splitter leash with my dog.

Her new owner should take her to obedience school for bonding and to refresh any prior training Dauma has had. Dauma needs to be watched if any food is left out on the counter or table. She walks around the kitchen with her nose up in the air cruising the counters and will steal someone’s dinner if she gets the chance.

Dauma does not like being alone, and would probably do best in a home where someone is home most of the time, or takes her with them in the car when they go out.

If anyone wants to meet Dauma, please contact Lichen at Dogwood Rescue 604-926-1842. Dauma is in Cloverdale and I can bring her to the off leash park at Clayton if anyone is interested in adopting her and wants to spend some time with her.

Here’s Dauma’s profile on Petfinder.
