The Complete Hungarian Vizsla
by Gay Gottlieb

The Hungarian Vizsla is the aristocrat of the gundogs. It is an ideal worker, combining all three disciplines: hunting, pointing and retrieving. It is also making a name for itself in the show ring, and in this highly comprehensive Book of the Breed, the author traces the Vizsla's origins in Hungary and charts its spread through Europe to the rest of the world. She reveals the art of training a dog for show and field, the Breed Standard is analyzed in detail, and breeding principles are discussed in full. There is additional information on the wire-haired Vizsla.
