Vizsla Forum:
Vizsla/Weimaraners

We live in DC and are interested in either a vizsla or Weimaraner. We are interested in hearing the pros and cons of both dogs. we have children so we would like an intelligent, loving and caring dog that looks good and is strong. Open to hearing any input.

Having had experience with both, I would highly recommend a vizsla. While a Weimaraner is not a bad choice, Id have to say a vizsla would be a good choice. I currently have 2 female vizslas (4-years and 9-months) and I also have to children (10-years and 6-years) and they are just wonderful together. Make sure you do extensive research on each breed before making your choice and be prepared to provide lots of exercise as the breed requires it. Another bit of information which is important is the vizsla is very much a family dog and everyone I know that owns one also allows them to sleep in their bed! Please feel free to e-mail with any other concerns or questions that you may have.

If you want a dog that is less hyper and not as hard headed then a Vizsla is a better choice than the Weimaraner. All pointing breeds have a lot of energy, its just that the Vizsla is a little less hyper and hard headed.

We have a 5 year old male, neutered Vizsla. His name is Chance well socialized, very active and enjoy playing, and running. He loves children, adults, cats and other four legged visitors. He wants to be loved and cuddle all the time. My wife says he has to go-or I do. I spend too much time with him. I want him to be loved the same way I love him. Please help. I live in Lynchburg, Va 24502 I paid $1400.00 for him and will give him free to a loving home. His care means more to me then money.
