Van egy kutyám, Ottó. Ottó már nagyon öreg, de nem tudjuk, hány éves. Ottót nem vettük, hanem találtuk. Nagyon érdekes sztori. A barátom, Edvárd nagyon akart egy kutyát. Egy magyar vizslát. Az egyik kollégája pedig galambokat akart venni. Az interneten keresett eladó galambokat. És volt egy hirdetés: magyar vizsla a Galamb utcában, Hajdúsámsonban. Hajdúsámson egy kisváros, Debrecen mellett. A barátom, Edvárd kocsival elment Hajdúsámsonba, február nyolcadikán. Ez volt az a nap, amikor lett egy kutyánk. Ez tíz éve történt.
Ottó nagyon jó kutya, na gyon szeretem. Sőt, nem szeretem, imádom! Ő a legjobb barátom, mindenem. Mindennap együtt sétálunk. Sok kalandunk volt már.
És miért Ottó a neve? Ez is érdekes.
A barátom biológus, a kedvenc állata a viperák. Volt egy magyar biológus, akit Hermann Ottónak hívtak. Hermann Ottónak is voltak kutyái. Ők is magyar vizslák voltak. És ezek a vizslák találtak először viperát Magyarországon. Sajnos nem tudjuk, mi volt Hermann Ottó vizsláinak a neve, ezért lett Ottó.
És most kérdezed, hogy Ottó talált már viperát? Igen, Ottó tud viperát találni. Amikor lát egy viperát, megáll, egyik lábát felemeli, és nem csinál semmit, csak csendben vár. Erre mondják, hogy “állja a vadat”. Az állja a vadat egy kifejezés, idióma. Azt jelenti, to point.
Sajnos az baj, hogy Ottó csak akkor talál viperát, amikor akar. Nem lehet kérni, nem szeret dolgozni. Ő csak játszik és szaladgál. 
Ezért van egy másik kutyánk, Tomi. Tomi dolgozik, ő egy munkakutya. De ez már egy másik sztori. →
