Vizsla Puppy And Dog Information

This dog comes from Hungary where the word Vizsla actually means alert. This dog is known to be responsive and gentle. They do need a lot of exercise so a properly fenced in year, making note that they can jump high, would be ideal. They are generally good with other pets, dogs and well behaved children.

As a reminder, never leave a child unsupervised with a puppy or dog. *Approximate Adult Size. The approximate adult size (two years old or older) of the Vizsla is 22.5 to 25 inches to the withers (highest point of the shoulder) and 48.

5 to 66 pounds. *Special Health Considerations. Most dog breeds have certain inherited health problems associated with that specific breed and the Vizsla is no exception.

Be on the look out for skin problems, epilepsy (common in dogs) and Canine Hip Dysplasia (genetic based looseness in the hip joint that can lead to arthritis pain and lameness). This disease list is an informative guideline only. Other diseases may also be significant threats, please contact your veterinarian for a complete list.

She should visit the veterinarian several times in the first year for shots, boosters and check up. Then, as an adult, she should visit the veterinarian yearly for shots and check up. As she gets older, six years and on, she should visit the veterinarian twice a year for check ups and shots. Remember; avoid feeding your dog sweets. *Grooming. The Vizsla has a short, dense, and smooth easy to care for coat.

She should be brushed regularly. Brushing will help her maintain a clean and healthy coat, help you keep a closer eye on her health and strengthen your emotional bond with her. Her teeth should be brushed at least twice a week with toothpaste and toothbrush designed for dogs.
