Abilities

Synopsis
Phantom Blood
George Joestar I bought Danny when he was a puppy when Jonathan was five years old. Danny was very afraid of unfamiliar places and strange people. Jonathan and Danny did not get along for a while, which caused Danny to bite Jonathan. Jonathan, in turn, attacked Danny by throwing stones at him. One day, while swimming in a river, Jonathan started drowning and was saved by Danny, which made them the best of friends.
When Dio arrived, he kneed Danny in the jaw while lying that he did it because he was startled by the animal running at him. Weeks later, Dio retaliated for Jonathan beating him by placing the hound in the incinerator to be burned to death. When Jonathan learned of Danny's agonizing death upon his return, the dog buried in the backyard of the Joestar Mansion, he knew Dio had a role in this. That night, Jonathan cried while laying awake in bed over losing his only remaining friend.
