DWTS vet, snowboarder Louie Vito adopts pup
Snowboarder dude and Dancing with the Stars contestant Louie Vito can add "dogowner" to his resume. He just adopted a young pit bull mix named Darla from the Animal Advocate Alliance. Vito renamed Darla Gucci, telling People "Gucci Vito just sounded right."
Hopefully Vito and the spotted Gucci will have more chemistry than the snowboarder showed with his partner on the dance show.
"We no longer have to wonder why our sweet little Darla keeps getting overlooked at adoption events as the perfect match for Darla fell in love with her and she is now living in her new home," the rescue said on its website, announcing Vito adopted the dog.
"We miss Darla incredibly but are thrilled that she found the perfect home. Send us a postcard from the slopes Darla girl and have a great life!"

Comments
The outstanding chemistry on the show between Louie and Chelsie was one of the things that just about everyone who saw them dance agreed on and remarked on, not sure why it is even implied as debatable in this review.
That said, I remember seeing :Louie posting a picture of this dog on Twitter when he was thinking about adopting it. Very cute pup, glad he decided to do it, and how great that he adopted a rescue animal!
