Information on Training Your Vizsla Dog or Puppy

While the Vizsla is by no means considered an aggressive breed, he can tend to come across as a bit standoffish or anti-social. A no-nonsense hunting dog first, this Hungarian Pointer is very cautious and curious of his surroundings, always on duty when it comes to sniffing things out, and tends to carry this serious attitude into the home. Not patient enough to put up with small children, chances are he will take himself to his master's feet and plant himself there, in hopes that this will deter the child from further antagonizing.

Also be forewarned that Vizsla dogs are not always the best with small animals either; trained as hunting dogs for centuries, the desire to hunt is very natural in most Hungarian Pointers. Vizsla should always be supervised when exposed to cats, rabbits or anything else remotely "bite size."

The Vizsla is a very intelligent breed and one that possesses a great deal of stamina and control. For these reasons, he can sometimes be a bit of a handle for the inexperienced but, once you know where you�re going, it�s relatively easy. Obedience classes are highly recommended, particularly if you are inexperienced with training dogs - not only does it teach your dog basic commands and obedience, but it also teaches you how better to understand your new puppy, and what methods he bests responds to. In no time, you two are sure to be teaching one another new tricks.
