A short but hilarious video featuring a sleepy Vizsla named Maverick, better known as Mavi, is winning hearts online for perfectly capturing how one simple phrase can instantly turn a dog into an alert, stretch-ready athlete. The clip, shared by Instagram user @vizsla_vibes_maverick, shows Mavi curled up comfortably in bed, clearly in no rush to start the day.
Dog gets out of bed the moment owner uses the ‘magic word’
Maverick is in his comfortable space, ready to stretch that extra minute of laziness. However, that changes in less than a second when his owner casually asks the question that every Vizsla seems programmed to respond to: “Do you wanna go outside?”
At the start of the video, Mavi lounges under the covers, eyes half-closed and body fully relaxed. The moment his owner says the “magic word,” the transformation begins. The dog’s ears perk up, his eyes open wide, and he launches into a series of exaggerated stretches.
The text overlay perfectly sums up the moment: “How to get Mavi out of bed in 0.1 seconds… Do you wanna go outside?” The caption drives the joke home even further, simply stating: “That’s the magic word.”
Viewers quickly recognized the behavior, with one commenter writing, “This is hilarious. Typical Vizsla trait lol—love the stretches.” Another added, “Yes, this happens every morning here with our Floki, including the stretches.” A third summed it up: “Such a Vizsla!!”
Fans of the breed flooded the comments, sharing similar morning routines and expressing their love for Vizslas’ dramatic wake-up habits. One viewer wrote, “Oh my goodness, I absolutely love Vizslas. My boy is exactly like this—we have to have morning cuddles too.”
The Vizsla in the clip is Maverick, featured on the Instagram account @vizsla_vibes_maverick. The bio highlights his love for tomatoes, tennis balls, naps, and life with his pawrents at four years old. Vizslas stand out as affectionate, high-energy “Velcro dogs,” combining intense loyalty, sensitivity, and intelligence with a need for more than two hours of daily exercise and mental stimulation to prevent boredom.
