sorry to disapoint some of you but heres my girl meeka after finding the only bog within miles god did she enjoy wallowing in it like a pig !!

Nice end to the season :-)

Great pic doc brings back happy memories of many years wild fowling on lymington to keyhaven marshes such a shame the Brent were never put back on the ticket there's so many of them now :-)

Hiya the Vizsla is one of the HPR hunt point and retrieve breeds theyre very intelligent but require lots of time and energy it takes about two years to fully train but so far she has come on well ive taken her out this season wildfowling ( but i hardly shot anything so that cant be judged too much)plus theyre not really meant for it but she showed great patience, when it got cold she wore a 5mm wetsuit to keep her warm. she developed her nose beating this season which helped her game finding abilities having loads of steady points !! darn those spaniels who used to come in and flush her birds lol and was allowed to pick up a few pheasants and finnished the season well with a few runners and birds other dogs couldnt find so i was well chuffed with that and shes great company in the hide marks the birds in flight then looks at me in disgust each time i miss, !! shes steady as well and dont run in but best of all is out walking the fields and woods working her and then seeing her going on point flushing then retrieving it is one of the best feelings ever!! still bit of work to do need to improve her distance when hunting and reafirming everything shes learnt so far, theyre a very loyal dog but require a lot of exercise 2 or 3 times a day and are deffinately not a pet dog to be left unatended arround the house. mark

Hiya shes from the Vizellven kennel and the sire is called tonga from somewhere in france the damm had a cracking litter and is now 14 months old

Very nice !! she looks tired out now !!
