Kennel Name: Texas Hill Country Vizsla

Breeder's Location: Johnson City TX 78636///Austin, TX 78730

Breeding for: 4 years. Texas Hill Country Vizsla --Located just outside of Johnson City Texas on an 20 acre horse ranch that is dedicated to the breeding and training of Vizsla. In addition the ranch supports a horse breeding training and boarding business along with a dog training and kenneling facility.*
****************************
I can not say enough good things about this breed that this breed has the natural pointer well suited for hunting in pointing, flushing and retrieving; temperament of a lab; shedding is almost non existent and one of the top 5 healthiest breeds (not well know and back yard breeders haven't enter the market-yet- This will change over the next 5 years because the popularity of the breed is growing. There are two down sides Vizlsa require engagement they are know to be one of the most loyal breeds and lack of engagement tends to adversely effect the relationship with the owner. Even though this is a hunting dog it does not have 2nd undercoat found in labs; retrievers; etc and can not remain in the cold for long .duration.
********************************

The Breed originated in Hungary to work as a pointer and retriever, the Vizsla dog breed has an aristocratic bearing. The first written reference to Vizsla dog breed has been recorded in the Illustrated Vienna Chronicle prepared on order of King Lajos the Great (Louis the Great King of Hungary, Croatia, and Poland) by the Carmelite Friars in 1357. Companion dogs of the early warlords and barons, Vizsla blood was preserved pure for centuries by the land-owning aristocracy who guarded them jealously and continued to develop the hunting ability of these "yellow-pointers". Records of letters and writings show the high esteem in which the Vizsla was held. The Vizsla survived the Turkish occupation (1526–1696), the Hungarian Revolution (1848–49), World War I, World War II and the Soviet Period. However, Vizslas faced and survived several near-extinctions in their history, including being overrun by English Pointers and German Shorthair Pointers in the 1800s and again to near-extinction after World War II. During the 1950s a careful search of Hungary and a poll of Hungarian sportsmen revealed only about a dozen Vizslas of the true type still alive in the country. From that minimum stock, the breed rose to prominence once again. *********** The Vizsla was bred to work in field, forest and water. Agile and energetic, this is a versatile dog of power, drive and endurance in the field yet a tractable and affectionate companion in the home. The requisite instincts and abilities to maintain a "dual dog" are always to be fostered and appreciated, never deprecated. This breed is often described as the "Velcro Vizsla." Most dogs are affectionate, but this medium-size hunting dog is especially attached to his people. All he really wants, though, is to be loved. He's a super companion for an active family who can provide him with the exercise and attention he craves. ****Next Litter (Angel) Planned Early September Birth with pic-up Early Nov 2017*** The Litter to follow (Luna or Stella) Planned for January with pic up in March 2018**** to be added to the contact list you must contact me through the AKC WEB portal*****

Hi!
Here is an update on Ginger….

Ginger is such a smart and silly girl. She remains locked in on everything she learned as a pup, a consummate rule follower, yet remains a stealthy foot snatcher from anytime Lola’s bowl is momentarily unattended at feeding time. She loves to play and will make a game by herself if no one is participating. She continues to be a top travel buddy and a loved, but annoying, little niece to Lola. Thank you for 4 great years with this girl. She weighs 46 lbs.

Be well! Mikki...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Bo,
Sent some of Piper. She is so awesome!!!

Hi Bo!

Murphy still weighs about 50 #. He continues to be our sweet loving goofball who gets compliments everywhere we go. His pet therapy visits are ongoing but limited to select venues as he tends to get bored during some of my quieter/longer visits.

Murphy and his half sister Maisie are inseparable, he is still her favorite chew toy. He loves to hike and swim given the opportunity. Last night he tried out a friend’s pool for the first time and loved it. We still hike 4-5 days a week. Locally we hike on a friend’s ranch but for the last month we have been hiking in New Mexico, Colorado and Utah while traveling in a travel trailer with all 4 Vizslas. We’ve had a great trip. Murphy and the girls have adapted well to trailer life. We are headed home to College Station today but now that we are fully retired I’m sure we’ll be traveling again soon.

----------------------------------------
Hey Bo, I hope all is going well with you. Great to see the new puppies

Luke weighs 64 pounds and is pure muscle! His favorite place to be is outside, taking in all the sights, sounds, and smells while chasing the occasional butterfly or bug. He is always focused and completely captivated by the world around him.
He still greets us at the door with a toy in his mouth whenever we come home. He is curious, loving, incredibly snuggly, and remarkably tolerant of his sassy sister! He is always ready for a car ride—with his head out the window, of course!
Luke absolutely loves mealtime and has become quite the communicator when he thinks a treat is in order. He brings so much joy to our lives, and we love him more than words can say. We are incredibly grateful that he is ours!

Thank you,
David
---------------------------------------------
Laszlo is 52 lbs and happy as can be. He loves riding in cars, golf carts, boats and ATVs. He recently tried kayaking and did quite well. He keeps busy watching for birds and helping clean up after dinner :)
Karen
----------------------------------
Hi Bo,
Josey is doing great. Still the feisty one out of the two! If she’s outside she is hunting something with an intensity that is fun to watch. Loves to swim, not afraid of anything, even fireworks. Josey weighs 46 lbs. and is still very healthy. I can’t believe she’s turning four.

Hope you didn’t float away with all that rain in E. Tex.!
~Susanne --------------
----------------------
Zoey is doing great. Weighing in at 58 lbs. She is just
starting to get some white hairs on her chin.
She loves to swim in our lake, ride on the waverunner and sit on the paddle board while we do all the work. She is such a good guard dog at the house and always alerts us if someone is on the property.
She just started going crazy over this Mexican white cheese that my GF cuts up for her Colombian dishes. She stands at the refrigerator and doesn't whine but gives us this growling howl that last for 10 sec a pop.
Such a loving dog
David

---------------------------------------
Hey Bo!
We can’t believe Nelson is 4 already! He’s truly our first child haha! He is simply the sweetest and happiest boy ever, and such an amazing big brother to our 16 month old daughter Zoey. Enjoy the pics.

Bo,

Lotus continues to be a loving, fun, energetic puppy. We love everything she brings to us daily. She does love to chill, yet loves to go and do anything we are up to. The third photo is her on the right with Lama (also from you) on the left.

Thank you,

Michael W, Stella and Huck
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey Bo,

Otto has been doing great! We’ve recently moved across the street from a local park and Otto loves greeting anybody and everybody on our daily visits. We’ve taken a number of field trips down to San Antonio this past year where he gets to hang out with his beloved cousins pictured below.

He’s weighed in at 50.1 lbs when I checked this past weekend.

Thank you Bo!

Best,
Henry
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Archie is the goodest boy! He's vivacious, full of love and energy. He is just the nicest dog.
Archie is the best big brother to our 2 year old daughter, Aria. He lets her play with her and she feeds him from time to time some of her veggies that she doesn't want and it's the most beautiful relationship. He also loves his older brother Kenan, they're attached at the hip and obsessed with one another. They love to play in the backyard or go on walks together (although Archie still loves to pull on the leash, so his mommy takes him on long runs instead to get the energy out). He is very healthy and the vets praise him at his annual visits. He is 55 lbs.
We love our Archie and cannot image life without him.
Tatjana
--------------------------------------
Hi Bo,

Maisie weighs about 40 #, her next check-up is September 14th.

Maisie continues to be our Wild Child, she generally has two speeds, all out or crashed. She is a huge snuggle buddy and loves to be under covers whether in our laps, in our bed or in her cozy cave. She is very smart and although we have no plans to compete we have attended multiple agility classes this past year and have lots of practice equipment set up in our yard. We continue to hike 4-5 days a week locally at a friend’s ranch. Currently we are on a month long trip traveling thru New Mexico, Colorado and Utah in a travel trailer with all 4 of our Vizslas. Most of the photos I’ve included were taken on this trip..

Hi!!
Here are some pictures of Vinny! He’s still an energetic, happy, silly pup. And now he’s got a new bff in our son Henry.
Joanna
Hello Bo!
Kifli is fantastic and she brings us so much joy! She currently weighs 43.8 lbs.
We began attending NADAC agility trials this year as another fun thing to do with the dogs. Kifli always runs with so much joy and we are quickly improving. We recently earned our first qualified runs and are planning to earn titles in the intro classes. We are still working on our AKC advanced trick dog title. Kifli is beginning to enjoy swimming at the lake this summer!
Tyler
Hey Bo,
Dash is doing great with the baby! Dash is very curious but knows to be gentle. We have also had him in training which he has excelled at.
Best,
Jeff
Hi Bo! Clifford (named after the BIG RED dog on PBS) is doing great. His favorite things to do continue to be running around outside or playing fetch with a ball or just a random stick he finds! He is such a sweet and loving boy.
He just had his yearly check up at the vet a few weeks ago and doc said he’s super healthy. He weighed in at exactly 60 pounds.
Thank you for putting these updates together every year - we always look forward to seeing how everyone is. Happy birthday to all!!

Hi Bo,
Man, this little girl (Lyra Winnie) is becoming so sweet. Her land shark days are becoming less and less. She lost her first tooth this past week! Could be a second or third; I guess I should say the first tooth I was able to get. She has a very beautiful point that she loves to show off to the squirrels and Mourning Doves. She keeps the point as we take steps forward, always watching me for instruction. This is my first time having a hunting type dog other than my Greyhound. So it's nice to have a warning. He sees something and just takes off. Shes spending most of the day out of her pen and either on my lap or next to her brother on the couch. We are also working on our selfies and socialization. Miss Lyra Winifred is weighing a healthy 29lbs and I can't believe she is already 6mo old.
Hope you are well and staying cool.
Tammie P
----------------------------------
Hi Bo,
I can't believe Fia is already 6 months old.
She's growing like crazy and has definitely found her voice thanks in part to Harlow sharing all the yummy things. She absolutely LOVES water, squirrels, and birds.
We’re right in the height of teething. She’s lost two teeth so far and is chewing everything.
She’s becoming such an independent little girl, but when she’s ready for a nap, she's right next to me.
She is the sweetest, smartest girl and we adore her.
I hope you have a wonderful day!
P.s. She weighs 27.5 lbs
Tracie....
---------------------------------------------------
Hi Bo,
I hope you are doing well! Here are some photos of Mav. He is 36 pounds and doing great! He is going through some training right now and is excelling. He is such a smart and energetic boy and keeps us on our toes!
I cannot believe he is 6 months old! We love him dearly and are forever grateful to have gotten the opportunity to have him in our lives.
Rebecca...
-----------------------------
Lola is doing great. Chipmunks, squirrels, rabbits, and about 20types of birds, are keeping her entertained and stimulated. No run-ins with a bear, mountain lion, bobcat, fox, or coyote. Yet. Sister Carly keeps an eye out for those and lets me know quick. Lola is 31lbs.
Paul
----------------------------------------------------------
Hi Bo!
I appreciate your patience as we were traveling this past week. Pippa is doing great! She currently loves going on walks, playing with other dogs, searching for treats in our toddler's ball pit, and snuggling in soft blankets. She weighs approximately 30lbs and I have included recent pictures below.
Thanks again,
Kati

Julia runs the show! She continues to give us love and happiness. She's an excellent role model for Rocco. We are lucky to have her.

Forgot to give you a weight. Julia’s gotten a lot of exercise since Rocco came on board. Her last weight was 50.2 pounds.
Thanks again!

Hi Bo,
I wanted to send you an update on Reka as she gets close to her birthday on July 13. She is doing great and has really grown into her personality.
Reka weighs about 40 pounds and is full of character—funny, quirky, and very much a Velcro dog. She wants to be with one of us nearly every hour of the day, right up until about 9:00 PM when she is ready for bed.
She loves playing fetch and spends a lot of time chasing butterflies and dragonflies. She is also very aware of any birds in her area and keeps a close eye on everything going on around her.
She shares the house with our other dog, an 85-pound Vizsla-Lab mix who will turn four in August. He is much calmer, which balances Reka’s energy well. Even though he is the bigger dog, Reka is definitely the ruler of the house and always demanding our attention, and he puts up with her very well. They make a good pair.
Reka also gets along very well with the cat, although she sometimes has a little too much energy for the cat.
Overall, she is a happy, healthy dog and a big part of our family. We could not be happier with her.
We’ve attached a couple pictures too.
Bill and Rogene
Good morning,

Fenny is still a handful, loves a good open park walk/fetch! 35 lbs.

Thank you,

Brian
Hello,
Josey is doing very well and enjoying her summer here at the farm. She enjoys an adventure every day. She is usually exhausted by evening and will let us know that it’s time to go to bed. It has certainly been a pleasure sharing our lives with her. She weighs 34pounds.
Alan
Todd is the sweetest boy. He continues to be good and dependable helper at feeding time every evening…..he takes his job seriously. He is still the perfect mixture of being active, but loving to cuddle. Everyone thinks they’re his favorite human He continues to be a blessing to our family! We hope you all are well!
Also, his weight is 47lbs
Nick, Alexis, Harper, Avynn and Todd
Hey Bo.

Sorry for the late response.

Ziggy is doing great and still keeping us busy. He loves chasing rabbits in the backyard and loves even more going out for a bicycle ride. He has brought so much joy to our family throughout these past 4 years! He is 47.6 lbs today.
Hi Bo! Walter is doing great and is the part of our family that we didn’t know was missing. Truly. He loves his family more than life itself, and I think he would climb inside our bodies just to be closer to us if he could. Walter and Junie are living their best lives together this summer while everyone is home! He can be found in someone’s bed, playing frisbee, and venturing out in the pool with the kids, although he doesn’t love it nearly as much as his sister.

Thanks,
Allison
