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, Alyssa McCluskey the assistant coordinator for more information.
