Welcome to the Rocky Mountain Vizsla Club
The Specialty Vizsla Club of Colorado

We are a group of Vizsla enthusiasts in the metro Denver area who participate in various activities with our beloved companions. We are the Specialty Vizsla Club of Colorado. We have many "open space" outings, snowshoeing, and hiking adventures throughout the year. Our members are also involved in various AKC events such as conformation, agility, rally, obedience, field trials, and hunting tests. Members are also actively involved in Vizsla Rescue. If you're looking to add a Vizsla to your family, our Breeder Referral Program can help you locate a responsible Vizsla breeder in Colorado. Please don't buy a Vizsla puppy until you've talked with us!

Looking for a Vizsla puppy?

So, you think you want a Vizsla? First, make sure you read all about Vizslas--though we love them, they're not the right breed for everyone.

Next, please, please consider adopting (or fostering) a Vizsla from rescue.

If you decide you really want a Vizsla puppy, please make the commitment to add a Vizsla to your family the right way. Choose a responsible Vizsla breeder.Vizsla Puppy

The Colorado/Wyoming Vizsla Rescue Group (CWVRG) NEEDS your help!

Because of the abundance of irresponsible people breeding and selling Vizslas, the CWVRG is taking in more rescues than ever before.

This is very disheartening news.

But you can help by fostering a rescue Vizsla. Contact Rita Prindle, the CWVRG coordinator, or Alyssa McCluskey the assistant coordinator for more information.
