Frequently Asked Questions

Do Vizslas need a lot of grooming?

Vizslas have minimal grooming needs compared to some other breeds. Regular brushing, occasional baths, and routine nail trimming and ear cleaning are typically sufficient.

Do Vizslas bark a lot?

Vizslas are not excessive barkers, but they may bark to alert their owners or when they are bored or anxious.

Are Vizslas good off-leash?

Vizslas are known for their hunting instincts and may have a strong prey drive, so off-leash activities should be approached with caution, especially in unfenced areas. Training and reliable recall commands are essential before allowing them off-leash in open spaces.
