The Hungarian Vizsla

Temperament:
Vizslas are lively, gentle-mannered, loyal, caring and highly affectionate. They quickly form close bonds with their owners, including children. Often they are referred to as "velcro" dogs because of their loyalty and affection. They are quiet dogs, only barking if necessary or provoked. They are natural hunters with an excellent ability to take training. Not only are they great pointers, but they are excellent retrievers as well.
Appearance:
The Vizsla is a medium-sized hunting dog of distinguished appearance and bearing. Robust but rather lightly built, they are lean dogs, have defined muscles, and are similar to a Weimaraner but smaller in size. The breed standard calls for the tail to be docked to two-thirds of its original length in smooth Vizslas and to three-fourths in Wirehaired Vizslas.
