Great Book May 26, 2009

Overall, very pleased with the product. The only negative about the book is it's fairly expesive...especially since the book comes with no colored pictures (bummer). However, I've found nothing better on the Vizsla breed. If you're serious about getting a Vizsla, this book is a must...lots of great information about the breed, and very detail oriented. Enjoy
Thinking about getting a Vizsla or have one already, get this book... December 27, 2008

The book covers all aspects of the dog breed from history to birth to the aging process. Vizsla's are a unique breed. This book will help the new dog owner and one who is new to the breed - we refer to the book often as an excellent reference guide. The book has enhanced our family's enjoyment of our dog. The chapter headings are as follows:
1. Meet the Vizsla
2. Early History of the Vizsla
3. The Vizsla Standard
4. Selecting a Vizsla Puppy
5. Your Vizsla's First Year: Care and Development
6. Your Vizsla's First Year: Behavior and Training
7. The Young Adult Vizsla
8. The Vizsla in Obedience
9. The Vizsla in the Show Ring
10. The Vizsla in the Field
11. The Vizsla in Agility
12. The Versatile Vizsla
13. Preventative Health Care
14. Breeding and Re-Production
15. Whelping
16. Care of the Newborn Puppy
17. The Growing Vizsla Puppy
18. Care of the Vizsla Dam
19. The Aging Process
20. Appendices include Regional Vizsla Clubs, Sources of Information, Recommended Reading
If you are thinking about getting a Vizsla or have a puppy already, this $30 investment will pay off in multiples. Terrific book.

This book was highly recommended to me by a Vizsla dog breeder as the authority on raising and training your Vizsla. After reading the book I have to agree that this is an excellent book. It covers all aspects of the breed from birth to death. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in buying this lovely breed of dog or to anyone who is currently the owner of a Vizsla.

Vizslas are great dogs, but they have some unique characteristics, that you need to know about before owning one. I would highly recommend this to anyone considering buying a Vizsla or a new owner. I have made notes and noted page numbers and have referred to them often.
Good resource information December 26, 2007
