Kids and Vizslas

Hungarian Pointers and young people can get comfortable together.  Not easy, but with a calm hand and the a relaxed manner, a Vizsla and a young person can be best of friends.

 

This relaxed attitude does not come about by accident but with a plan by adults to keep the relationship between the child and the dog positive and enjoyable.

Success is wonderful!

Vizslas Come Across Coyotes

About four miles into our hike this morning in the Castle Rock area south of Walnut Creek we came across these two coyotes howling away.  Across the canyon I could here another couple howls in response.  Both Bailey and Chloe have learned to leave coyotes alone over the years of our hikes.  Bailey by training collar and Chloe the hard way by having a coyote take a nip at her.

Fawkes  (2-year-old male) and Bo ( 1-year-old male) are from Bailey's first two litters.  They both will be being shown at the Northern California Vizsla Club Specialty Show on June 8th.

We took a two and a half hike in the hills and covered about eight and a half miles.  The dogs must have run twenty to thirty miles.
