Brief information
Character
The Hungarian Vizsla, or the Hungarian Pointer, is a hunting breed popular not only because of its excellent working qualities, but also because of its affectionate nature, which makes it an excellent companion. One of the characteristic features of this breed is that it is constantly located next to the owner. This is due to the initial purpose of the breed. Hungarian cops were bred as girlfriends, which, on the one hand, were able to point out prey and bring it, and on the other, they could constantly be next to the hunter. For this reason, if you do not like the constant presence of a dog, you should choose another breed.
It is not surprising that sociable and loving squeezes will feel better in the house in which someone is constantly. Long loneliness can adversely affect the behavior of the dog.
Squeezed a very talkative breed. Its representatives whine, howl and make various sounds to let the owner know what their opinion on one or another issue. However, the behavior of the dog from early childhood must be kept under control, otherwise it will become very noisy. You should start training your pet as early as possible, which, however, will not be difficult if you praise him when he does everything right, and show the necessary patience in the learning process.
Hungarian Vizslas are very hardworking dogs. It doesn’t matter what kind of work you load your pet with: whether you make him your companion in hunting or sports, or just actively spend time with him, in any case, he will be very happy. The Vizsla is one of the most intelligent dog breeds and if you want to compete in various dog sports, then this dog breed is perfect for you.
Hungarian Hounds get along well with younger family members, but their energy can be too tiring for toddlers. Best of all, dogs of this breed are suitable for school-age children who can actively spend time with them. With dogs and cats, they can easily find a common language, especially if they grew up with them.
Care
Vizsla’s health is good, however, like most breeds, these dogs are prone to some genetic diseases. When purchasing a puppy, it is important to ask the breeder if the dog’s parents suffer from epilepsy, poor blood clotting, or hip dysplasia.
Vizslas do not shed very much, so caring for them is simple: it is enough to comb out their hair and brush their teeth once a week. Light soiling from wool can be removed with a damp cloth. Since Hungarian Pointers do not have a strong dog smell, they rarely need to be washed.
Conditions of detention
Vizsles are very active, so they need long and active walks. Best of all, they will feel in a house with a plot where you can run around and splash out energy. It is important to remember that Hungarian Hounds cannot live outdoors, because their short coat is not able to protect them from the cold.
