    Just so people are aware, some of these clips are before his morning run or before his afternoon walk so he’s excited because he knows what time it is 😂 he’s a very active pup but, as Aidan always says, he could ALWAYS do with another walk

      Don't worry... Our Vizsla girl (6yo) is going very often full-clown-mode, even after having a (kind of exhausting) 2-3h walk. She eats right after, and gets silly like this (because she "survived" and deserved her meal and free time - her expression for joy and stuff). And this is veeeeery common for vizslas. Just simply calling out for a run to "correct" this is a sign, that people not know dogs or this breed at all.

    I actually have a vizsla. She is the sweetest mellowest (inside) dog I have ever had. I would highly recommend the breed to anyone who loves running or wants a great family dog. The vizsla in this video is bred beautifully, and looks just like my current one! Sadly, this dog above probably doesn't get enough exercise. My vizsla can run 10 miles without breaking a pant while I am cross country skiing. MY ONLY ADVICE: GET A VIZSLA, (YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT) AND EXERCISE IT.

      I miss our previous V immensely. I remember hearing my buddy had internal bleeding and had been vomiting and pooping blood for a few hours and they were going to put him down in an hour after getting home from work, shortly before our cross country move. I was devastated and didn't think it was real with him still running in to greet me and his ass wagging away like nothing was wrong. When I went outside with him, I sadly new the truths and he came back to me and just plopped up in my lap and i legitimately sat for 45 minutes hugging that dog and he me. When the time came to take him to the vet, my 27 year old self couldn't go and watch my buddy slip away. That is my biggest regret in life, is not being there for that dog but my heart couldn't let me watch that happen. He took with him many secrets I have never even had courage to divulge to my parents and personally, at this point in their lives they don't need to know. The one thing that keeps me marchin forward is knowing him and his pal (our other dog at the time) are waiting for me on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge

You also need to spend a lot of time training them and getting them used to a crate. Crate training is super important. You don’t have to b a runner to get one, but be willing to walk 3+ miles EVERY DAY and spend 1 hour every day on training.

    I am on my third vizsla and they’re great. Lorax could well be a “dog of a lifetime” for you guys. Know though, that if you want to greatly reduce the craziness, you can - pretty easily. You can institute a lot more structure and discipline in his life than was evident in the post. What’s more is that the structure/discipline isn’t the enemy of a fun, loving, nurturing environment. IMHO it will be better for dog and humans.
    You will never go to the bathroom alone again, though.

    • @reddogdude
      @reddogdude 4 года назад +11

      @@moltomezzopiano Hi João. What I mean by structure and discipline ranges from feeding and walking (two meals a day as an adult fed at the same time every morning and evening along with two principal 20 minute walks per day also in the morning and evening) to how the dog can act when people are over. “Discipline” DOES NOT mean harsh treatment (absolutely no hitting) or yelling - you won’t get the best out of a Vizsla that way - but you do need rules and boundaries for the dog and you need to be very, very consistent with those. You will decide what rules and boundaries work for your life, of course. Here’s an example in my life - I don’t like my little Vizsla girl in the bed while I’m sleeping. She’s allowed in the bed to hang out or while I’m reading but once I’m ready for sleep I send her to her bed in my room and that’s where she sleeps - every night without exception. And there are lots of other rules for my girl as well. Leash manners, front door manners, car manners, good manners while people are eating and much more. It may sound like my dog doesn’t have much fun in life but in reality it is just the opposite. Because she is well behaved my dog goes (and gets invited) everywhere. Beach parties, boat rides and even Thanksgiving dinner at my sister’s house (my dogs are the only ones that my dog-hating sister will allow in her house). The bottom line is this: if a chihuahua is poorly trained, it’s adorable. If a Vizsla is poorly trained it can ruin your life. They are too big, too athletic and have too much stamina and must be well trained. More importantly, a well trained and well mannered dog leads a bigger and better life and that’s the best gift any human can give to their dog.
      For training I just use what I call “nurturing dominance.” I’m in charge, what I say goes the first time I say it but I establish and reinforce that as gently as possible at all times. I can’t stress enough that this is what will work best for a Vizsla. They’re very sensitive dogs and hitting and/or yelling will produce a fearful and unsure dog. Two books that I would recommend are THE ART OF RAISING A PUPPY by he Monks of New Skete and ZAK GEORGE’S DOG TRAINING REVOLUTION. The book from the monks has great ideas for structure and the Zak George book is all about gentle training. Additional tip: Zak George has a great presence on RUclips. Search for his name and check out his videos. Sorry for the long post. I hope this helps. Good luck!

    Standard Vizsla. If you can walk/run/bike with him more it helps a bit and they need lots of mental stimulation for that amazing nose and hunting instinct but at 6months you can’t phys them to calmness without doing them a longer term disservice. Everyone loves them because they are so affectionate and such characters but they are not great city dogs. Need too much open space and things to sniff. He looks fab.

    • @System-Update
      @System-Update 4 года назад

      @2centavos, I've never lived in a city with an HPR so maybe I shouldn't comment. The point I was trying to make is that these were bread to hunt and thrive on novelty and open space - I used to mountain bike with mine a couple of times week to give them the work out that they needed and the stimulation they crave. If you have one from show lines they might be calmer and happier walking on the leash and sniffing streets. Walking mine around town they were happy enough. Taking them out to the fields where they can run free and scent deer, rabbits, foxes, etc they were visibly more excited. They are wonderfully affectionate family dogs but they are also real outdoors busy hunty dogs. People often overlook the second bit. I was able to take mine to work and was 50% office 50% outside so they had a great life. I have calmer breeds (A whippet and a Boarder Terrier) now that I can't provide that level of stimulation.

      Between my parents and myself, we've had 9 Vizslas over 30 years, starting when I was 15 (I'm now 47.) I lost my Vizsla, Sir Alex, earlier this year. He was just short of his 9th birthday. He had a rapidly growing chest tumor. I had always taken him to the vet if he had any ailment that concerned me and he had a thorough annual physical with blood, stool, urine tests. The chest tumor we discovered when I developed a slight cough that within 7-10 days turned into a persistent cough. I took him to the vet and the cursory examination showed he was fine so we couldn't figure out why he was coughing. A week later it wasn't improving so I took him in again and this time the vet took x-rays and found the tumor. He had gone from no tumor to a very large tumor in just 3 months. The process of figuring out whether it was benign or malignant was quite intrusive. Sir Alex's normal vet and then the veterinary surgeon both said it didn't really matter if it was cancer because it had grown so fast and so large, it would be nearly impossible to remove it (it started on his sternum and then wrapped in and out of the ribs on both sides, pushing down on his heart and up on his lungs.) Although I've had 2 long term girlfriends and one fiance, I've never been married and have no children. When people used to ask me about my marital status, I'd say "not married, no kids....but I have Sir Alex." He was my child and I was his parent. But he was also my best friend and I won't ever get over losing him. I will get another Vizsla someday but right now, it's just too soon.
      My question for you is....did your Vizsla have verified cancer or just a tumor? Where was it? Did you do anything to combat it or treat it or as in my case, did you simply try and make their last days as comfortable as possible? I said my trusted vet and the surgeon from whom I got the second opinion both said it didn't matter whether it was cancerous or not. And even though I do second-guess myself and wonder if I shouldve had it treated more aggressively, I feel I did the right thing because I didn't want whatever days he had left spent at the surgeons being cut open several times in several big operations. I wanted those days to be spent doing the things he loved with the people he loved and who loved him. But I think that gathering other people's stories and info could help other Vizsla families in knowing what to look out for, how/how not to treat specific ailments, and of course, encouraging thorough physicals every year to look for things like tumors and cancers, esp when Vizslas start to get older.

    My Vizsla is now just over 8 months and I have to walk him at least 3 hours a day - usually two walks, one in the morning /mid day for about 1/1/2 hours and then again after diner from about 6:30 to 8pm. The evening walks he likes putting up possums. It's good if we meet up with some other people out walking their dog - we let them play chase; haven't met a dog yet that can out-run the Vizsla! No destructive tendencies or behavioural problems with this sort of regime. I've found he does like his naps after walking, especially if I lie on the bed, he likes to cuddle up and in about 30 seconds he is off - snoring. I've introduced him to hunting a couple of months back and we intend to hit it next season.

    I had two Vizslas and they have a ton of energy and are not an apartment or house dog.They are high strung hunters. You have to have acreage and patience and a firm but gentle hand. They love to please and will be obedient if you train them and lock it in. I spent a lot of time with my dogs. They are gone now and I miss them terribly.

      disagree, you can redirect that energy into fun routines in the house. we are on our 4th Vizsla, this one know there are zones in the house where play is allowed, no play only snuggling and in my home office sleeping on his mat. Between times we wear him out with training, brain games and appropriate fetch for his age. We are looking for a larger block of kand but that is so we can legally have more than 2. A vizsla with an owner who doesn't put in the effort is a destructive and likely naughty dog to stop boredom.

    This is a Sporting Dog of the Pointing variety...you need to be extremely familiar with their energy levels and what they need. They are made to quarter fields for 8-10 hours a day hunting birds. They MUST be run and they must be trained. We have had 3 Pointers: 2 English pointers and currently have 1 German Shorthair Pointer. Their energy levels don't even out until they are about 8 years old. Our next puppy will be either another GSP or a Vizsla (we hunt upland game: grouse, chuckar, pheasant) and these dogs were specifically bred for hunting / field trials. Lorax is gorgeous!!!

    LOL, hahahaha. This video brought memories of Dutch (my Vizsla boy) when he was a puppy. Dutch is now 2 1/2 years old going on.....6 months. Yeah, the whole "I am an adult male" has evaded him completely, lol. The thing about Vizslas is that they NEED to have at LEAST 2 hours of exercise EVERY DAY. They are a sensitive breed, and need to always feel loved and accepted. They are a fun breed; never a dull moment. Dutch and I go for a power walk for 1 hour every morning (6:00 am) and I take him to the dog park for 1 hour (sometimes 2 hours) every day. I have spoken with many other Vizsla owners and breeders, and they all agree, if a Vizsla gets 2 hours of exercise every day, you will have a happy and fun Vizsla. I love my Dutch; he is my four legged son.

      Ha! I have almost the exact same story. My dad got our first Vizsla when I was 15. I'm now 47 and between my parents dogs/family dogs and those I've had as an adult, we've had 9 Vizslas combined. And all of them have been named a variation on Nick or Alex, in honor of the infamous King and Queen of Hungary.

      @@alicat7281 Well it wasn't me that started it. My dad thought it was appropriate to give our first Vizsla a name to honor her Hungarian heritage. So she was Alexandria, but we called her Alex. The next one was a male, so my dad named him Nicholas, but we called him Nick. Then we had Alexei, Nikita, Alexander, etc etc. I got my Vizsla from a breeder friend of my dad's in Oklahoma. So after getting off of work on a Friday, I drove all night from Albuquerque to Oklahoma City and picked up my dog on Saturday. I then turned around and drove home and he sat in my lap the whole way (he was about 10 weeks old.) I named him Sir Alex in honor of Sir Alex Ferguson, legendary manager of Manchester United. It obviously fit right along with family tradition. Sir Alex was a faithful and loyal companion until I lost him earlier this year from a chest tumor. I'll get another Vizsla someday soon but I'm not quite ready yet. Although I love seeing pictures and hearing stories of other people and their beloved Vizslas.

      Freya Dennis Freya, before you have a dog you MUST learn about their temperament and the level of commitment you are getting into! Vizslas are great dogs with high energy like most pointers dogs! It is a huge commitment to have a Vizsla!!!! You must be an active/outdoor person, not a couch potato. Otherwise a person like that should not have a Vizsla or a dog because the dog and the owner will suffer tremendously

  • @davidbaskin8179
    @davidbaskin8179 5 лет назад +13

    Sorry to be so blunt: He NEEDS more time to run OFFLEASH. He likely needs an hour off leash in the PM, as well as a morning walk of about half an hour. He will NOT be happy unless he does. Perhaps he is not the right breed for you? He is NOT psycho; he is letting you know that your tiny apartment is insufficient to let off steam. The idea is to exhaust him to make him happy. My Vizsla would go on a 10 mile run every Sunday in addition to the twice daily runs. That way he was a happy camper. You might even try a third run in the middle of the day if that is possible with your schedule. You can judge his needs by experimenting with different amount of runs.

      In the afternoon, they either go for another half hour cycle or we all go on a big walk (around 45 mins- 1hour).
      Then we also try and take him on a smaller walk before bed. Things are a little different at the weekend as we usually go on a reaaaally long hike/walk in the mornings 😊 I hope this helps!
