Joe

The Wirehaired Vizsla is a separate breed, considered to be related to but not the same as the smooth-coated Hungarian Vizsla. The Wirehaired Vizsla was developed when Vasas Jozsef, the owner of a kennel, teamed up with fellow dog fancier Gresznarik Laszlo, owner of a German Wirehaired Pointer kennel. The pair decided to breed one of Laszlo's German Wirehaired Pointer males to two of Jozsef's female Vizslas. These females, Zsuzsi and Csibi, were chosen due to their pedigrees and their working abilities. The German Wirehaired Pointer which Laszlo chose was a liver-colored male named Astor. Once the pups were born, Jozsef and Laszlo chose the very best pups from each litter and bred them. The result was Dia de Selle, which was the first Wirehaired Vizsla to ever been shown in competition.

Because a man by the name of Jozsef is credited with developing the breed, the author chose the name "Joe" as the spotlight name. Over the course of history, "Joe" has been the name of many dogs. One such Joe is the Golden Retriever who was featured in several Jesse Stone movies, such as Jesse Stone: Lost in Paradise. Joe played the role of Reggie in many of the Jesse Stone movies. Joe was not a trained acting dog. Joe was actually a family pet, owned by Heather Soper. On a dare, Heather allowed Joe to audition for a part. The dog was so good that the movie crew asked him to come back again and again. He was in at least two movies, playing the role of Reggie. Unfortunately, sweet and talented Joe passed away peacefully in 2013. The filmmakers were in the process of working on another Jesse Stone film when Joe died. The movie makers memorialized him in the opening credits of the film.

Another "Joe" the dog is honored in a song. Joe is the name of a dog featured in a song by recording artist Gayla Peevy, who is well-known for her classic "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas." "A Dog Named Joe" was the "B" side of Peevy's song "Upsy Down Town." The song memorializes the singer's dog, who was a loyal companion.

Wirehaired Vizsla Dog Name Considerations

When thinking about the type of name that fits the Wirehaired Vizsla, one should consider the dog's personality and origins. The Wirehaired Vizsla is the result of the work of two men, Jozsef and Lazslo. Jozsef owned a kennel of Vizslas. Lazslo owned a kennel of German Wirehaired Pointers. The two men decided to breed two of Jozsef's best females to one of Lazslo's best males. Out of the two litters, the best pups were then bred and the first Wirehaired Vizsla was born. This means that German names such as Greta for a female and Wilhelm for a male are just the fit.

The Wirehaired Vizsla is always a reddish color. This means that the female name Rose or Rosie will work perfectly for the Wirehaired Vizsla. The male name Flynn, which is an English name referring to the son of a redheaded warrior is also quite suitable for a Wirehaired Vizsla.

The Wirehaired Vizsla is a very loyal and even-tempered dog. They are also quiet, rarely barking. However, they do have a great amount of energy. Names like Speedy fit the Wirehaired Vizsla because the breed is known to get up to forty miles per hour.
