Vizsla is an amazing breed. Very loving and sensitive. Thank you Rocky. I found your channel by accident. I have a 7 years old female vizsla.

[@ed7519]

I like the Visla as well. This dog is mostly Doberman though. They are very sweet.

[@davidpritchard604]

@@ed7519 I beg to disagree with you. My family has over ten of these dogs since the mid 1970’s as well as a few Dobermans. The flesh colored nose and every other marker in this dog scream Viszla. It should ne noted that the Dberman is a much newer dog than the Vizsla and could in fact descend from the Vizsla in part but more likely from the German Short Haired Pointer and some other type of dogs.

[@seaglassmomma4040]

@@ed7519I agree with the others, this dog looks like a Vizsla. I commented on the first video that this dog looked Vizsla. The shelters can only guess on breeds and generally they are wrong a majority of the time. I adopted a dog that was according to them a cattle dog and he actually turned out to be a giant Great Dane mix. Looked more like a Catahoula leopard dog. I actually chest checked out the instagram page and yes, even the shelter said he was a vizsla mix. Not sure why this guy said Doberman in his original video.

[@douglasrasmussen480]

The breed is very low in importance here. What is important is that he is clearly a gentle, loving and intelligent dog worthy of the best home he could live in. That said, I wonder what the original owner who chipped this dog did to mistreat him so badly and then give him up.

[@spiet7380]

My Vizsla pushes her head into me all the time just like Shadow did to the woman washing him ❤

Dude, we may be the reason why these dogs get adopted but you’re the reason why we know of these dogs.

But I found your channel for the first time and binge watched all your videos. Sad and happy tears distracted me from the tummy pain. You do an AMAZING job. You don’t get these kind of opportunities where I am in Scotland. It’s fundraising and adopting but no interaction with dogs during your free time. I wish we did, I’d love doing what you do xx

He looks just like a Vizsla. My Vizsla just passed. His color, cinnamon eyes, pink nose and size is just like the Vizsla. Usually if a mix they have a dark nose. I love this breed! I cannot image anyone doing this! The new owners gave him a wonderful name “Shadow moon” ❤ thank you for the update!

My husband and I love all animals, but especially dogs. Unfortunately we don't have a dog yet. I am having a difficult time getting another dog, after loosing our Shelby. She was my daughters dog, until we lost her. Loosing Shelby was like loosing my daughter all over again. So I have had a very hard time wondering if I can love again, knowing what will eventually happen again. This video has made me rethink this. For these dogs, any amount of good life is a great thing. I think I can give them that. And the 10-15 years we get with them will be so worth it all. Thank you❤

[@Papermoon310]

Shadow Moon is definitely a Visla! He has the “Mark of the Hound” on his face. It is the same markings that Doberman’s have, that’s how he was ID’ed as a Doberman. There are a few other breeds that can have this trait show up. Weimaraner, Dachshund’s and Visla’s are a few of them. Plus these are all closely related and developed in same area of the world. These are a sensitive breed that become very attached to one person, so I understand his distress. It was a sad situation, but it looks like the right person adopted him and gave him the family he needed. That is wonderful! Yay!

[@KYTrailRider]

I still think he is a Vizsa mix. Mostly because of his black nails. Even if a Vizsla can have the type of shadowing you mention, and I've just not seen it, their nails are the same color as their coat. But I think Shadow Moon is a gorgeous pup no matter his breeding. Having a Vizsla in your life makes life much more fun and interesting! 😊

Kobe is so gorgeous! Outliving the odds against him. Such a powerful spirit! ❤So happy for Shadow moon!

As before, this dog is downright beautiful. Both in spirit and in body. I'm so happy he found a great home. I'm one of the Vischla voters, mostly because of his nose and eyes. My daughter -in-law had one and her Mason was just like Shadow Moon.

Interesting..nose and eyes are the reasons i said Doberman. No floppy jowls either.

I am SOOOO happy for "Shadow Moon." What a beautiful name. He looks so happy in the photos...like a totally different dog in comparison to his first video. He is such a handsome and sweet dog. It made my eyes water to hear the good news. This little boys is so deserving of a good, loving home, and I am glad he's got another dog buddy too. I love happy endings!!!

Shadow Moon finally has a family who loves him, who treats him with respect and kindness. He's a great dog! Thank you Rocky, for all you do to help these beautiful, furry babies find forever homes.
