The Hungarian Vizsla (World of Dogs S.)

This book is a Hungarian Viszla 'Bible'. It is easy to read and very informative. I am now beginning to understand why my puppy behaves in certain ways.I was disappointed in the time it took to reach me as I hadn't realised the shop was abroad. I paid £59.99 for the book secondhand yet there was a sticker on the back for £24.99 which made me feel a bit stupid!

Brilliant book highly recommended for any Vizsla owner

Great as described

We bought several books on Vizsla's before we got our own puppy. This one was by far the best.Includes lots of material on training working dogs, as well as great discussion on the character of the breed. Also has fairly readable material on the history of the breed in the UK, and lots of great pictures.As the breed has grown from a small base, we found several pictures of our dog's ancestors in the book which is great. We proudly show it to all our friends.By the way - Vizsla's are exactly as the book describes them - absolutely incredible animals with amazing character and intelligence, but very, very energetic. Not for the faint hearted.

I have both editions of this book and this 2nd edition is by far the best ( I have an autographed copy but we can't all be that lucky!). Cute puppy pictures, lots of colour photos (vital really as a lot of the Vizslas pizazz is in the colour). For anyone thinking of buying a "velcro Vizsla" this book is invaluable. It gives the pros and cons of the breed and indeed advises caution before committing the next twelve years of your life to one of these delightful dogs. Advice is given on everything from choosing a puppy ,nail clipping and exercise to training for the gun and ringcraft. I bought the first edition before I bought my first Vizsla in 1987 and six Vizslas later I would recommend anyone with an interest in the breed to do the same.
