Living with a Vizsla

History

The earliest records of the Vizsla dog breed dates back to the 14th century. In 1357, an illustration was done on the Vienna Chronicle and it was ordered by King Louis I of Hungary. Early warlords loved the loyalty and companionship of the Vizsla, so much so they preserved the bloodline for centuries.

The Vizsla is a tough breed that has survived the Turkish occupation of Hungary in the 16th and 17th century, the Hungarian Revolution in the 19th century, World War I and World War II in the 20th century. The Vizslas are a tough breed that has survived near extinction events, research work carried out has shown that the pure bloodline of Vizsla still exists in the modern-day.

Towards the end of World War II, the Vizslas started migrating to the United States of America. After officially registering with the AKC, Vizsla breeds gained the long sort recognition on 25 November 1960. This recognition by the American Kennel Club meant that the Vizsla became the 115th official dog breed of the United States of America.

Temperament

The Vizsla is an affectionate, gentle and energetic dog breed. They are very loyal to their masters, caring and they bond very well with children and strangers. Vizslas are not one to hide their feelings, they show their frustrations by whining or crying out for you to notice that displeasure. They are exceptional at guarding their territory and will bark at perceived intruders invading their private space. They are excellent swimmers, great retrievers, great pointers and exceptional hunters. They can assimilate training.

Environment

The vizsla is a highly active dog that loves to indulge in physical activity. It’s a natural-born Hunter, so while living with a family, it requires a huge yard space to roam. Cramping is not the style of a Vizsla as this will give the dog a bit of downtime. You don’t want to have a crampy Vizsla whining in the house, the sound can make you go “coo-coo.”

The Vizsla is great with kids and love that extra physical push kids normally give dogs. They are intolerant with cold weather and moderately tolerant with hot weather. An average weather condition makes them function optimally to their full capacity.

Exercise

The Vizsla needs roughly between 30 minutes to 1 hour of exercise. Swimming is a great exercise routine as well as playtime. The leash must be taken off to give the dog a real “playtime” experience. This boosts the dog’s charisma, also, when playtime is done with kids, the dog’s social skills will improve astronomically.

Grooming

The dog’s hair type is short and coarse. This allows for easy combing and reduced grooming complexity. Mild shampoo or soap and a brush with stiff bristles are recommended during baths.

Our Vizsla puppies for sale come from either USDA licensed commercial breeders or hobby breeders with no more than 5 breeding mothers. USDA licensed commercial breeders account for less than 20% of all breeders in the country.

The unregulated breeders who are selling outside of the USDA regulations and without a license are what we consider to be “Puppy Mills.” We are committed to offering Vizsla puppies who will grow up to become important members of your family. We only purchase puppies from the very best sources, and we stand behind every puppy we sell.
