The Modern Hungarian Vizsla Handbook

Behaviour, training and everyday life, from choosing a puppy to the senior years

Most breed books tell you a Vizsla is a sleek, easy family dog. Then you bring one home and meet the real thing.

I've been training dogs for over 30 years, and I wrote this the way I'd talk to you if we were stood in a field together.

What's inside

• Where the Vizsla came from, Hungary's golden pointer

• Is a Vizsla right for you? Time, company, exercise and a sensitive soul

• Epilepsy, polymyositis, hips, eyes and what the research says

• Exercise, home life and your puppy's first week

• Socialisation, adolescence and training foundations

• Being alone, recall and the off switch: Vizsla training challenges

• Close-working, sensitive and full of go, enrichment, family life and other animals

• Common behaviour problems, and how to stop small ones growing

• Vizsla myths, and living well with your dog into the senior years

There's a Vizsla checklist at the back to keep coming back to.

Who it's for

Anyone thinking about a Vizsla, bringing a puppy home, living with a teenager who's forgotten their own name, or sharing life with an older dog.
