"I think all my human friends will enjoy wearing our beaded jewelry," barks Byron. "It's ideal for any occasion, fashion style or event, even a dog show!"
Meet our official mascot vizsla/weimaraner mix O. Byron!
"Byron has done for beaded jewelry what the chihuahua did for tacos," says Dunitz & Company president Nancy Dunitz, explaining why her canine companion was chosen as the company's mascot. "The versatile traits of Byron's breeding - the vizsla's sporting ability, lovable personality and natural affinity for the show ring combined with the weimaraner's grace and bold nature - mirror the brand identity I'm trying to project for my line. My line runs the gamut from fashionable and functional pouches to sporty accessories to elegant, eye-catching evening designs."
Calling upon his inherent "show ring" nature, Byron has donned some of the newest Dunitz designs for assorted fashion photo shoots. Some of these poses can be seen throughout our website.
But it's not just good looks that landed the mascot position for Byron. He played a key roles in the day-to-day operations at Dunitz & Company. His responsibilities included:
- Announcing the arrival of delivery people
- Rifling through packing materials
- Mistaking certain office supplies for dog toys
- Offering his opinion on new introductions - tail wagging, sniffing/snorting, licking, barking and in some cases, whining.
