Hungarian Wire Haired Vizsla

A rugged cousin to the Vizsla, built for endurance and loyalty.

The Hungarian Wirehaired Vizsla is a robust gundog developed for harsher terrain. It shares the affectionate, loyal traits of the smooth-coated Vizsla but with a denser coat and slightly more reserved nature. This breed is energetic and thrives on companionship.

Vizsla Tan 6 Years (approx) Ref: C2026025 Zara is a 6yearold Doberman cross, believed to have Hungarian Vizsla in her. When Zara first came into our care, she was in poor condition underweight and with multiple sores and skin issues. Thanks to lots of care and TLC, she’s now on the road to recovery. Zara is currently having regular medicated baths to help her skin heal, and while she may be left with some scarring, it doesn’t take away from just how beautiful she is. She is also on a special diet to help her reach a healthy weight.Despite everything she’s been through, Zara’s spirit has never been dampened. She is a happy, affectionate girl with a real zest for life. Her absolute favourite place is out on the field, where she can stretch her legs and enjoy a game with her beloved tennis balls (she always picks a favourite each time!). After a good run, she’s just as content using her nose to explore or taking part in little treasure hunts for treats. Zara walks beautifully on the lead and is a pleasure to take out, only occasionally pulling when she finds an exciting scent. She can sometimes be reactive around other dogs, usually due to a mix of excitement and uncertainty, which may result in barking. She is currently following a training plan for this, and her adopters will be given guidance and ongoing support to continue her progress. She is a real foodie and absolutely loves her treats, which makes her a joy to train. Zara enjoys learning and thrives during training sessions, especially when food is involved. She can be a little enthusiastic when taking treats, so she will need consistent boundaries in place.Zara could live with older, dogsavvy children who understand her needs and can respect her space. She would suit a home committed to continuing her training and giving her the structure she needs to thrive. Zara’s adoption fee is £495.00 this includes: Neutering Upto date flea & worm treatment Microchip 1st & 2nd Vac 4 weeks free pet insurance 1hour 1 to 1 postadoption support I walk nicely on a lead I'd prefer an adult only household I can be left alone for short periods I'd prefer to be the only dog in a home I'd prefer not to live with a cat I'm always on the go I love food and treats DOG Vizsla Tan 6 Years (approx) Ref: C2026025
