Since it’s officially the Dog Days of Summer, we thought we’d kick off our new series CIS Dog of the Day! South Boston loves its dogs so why not get to know the dogs in our neighborhood!
Our first CIS Dog of the Day is Vito the Southie Pug – the official mascot of Caught in Southie.
Name: Vito
Breed: Pug
Age: 5-years-old
Favorite Treat:
Carrots
Favorite Spot for a walk:
Marine Park
Likes:
Napping, saying hello to everyone he meets on a walk, cookies, and sunning himself on the stoop.
Dislikes:
The delivery guy. Vito has trained himself to run to the front door barking whenever his owners answer the phone to meet the take-out delivery person.
Make sure to follow Vito on Instagram. And yes, that’s a Sullivan’s collar and leash, Vito is sporting.
