Adopting a Vizsla

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Vizsla - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

You can adopt a Vizsla at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost of adopting a Vizsla is around $300 in order to cover the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. In contrast, buying Vizslas from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they usually cost anywhere from $1,000 to $2,000.

The easiest way to adopt a Vizsla would be through a rescue that specializes in Vizslas. A great place to start is by starting a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Vizslas in your area.

Vizsla fun facts

Fun Facts:

"Vizsla" means "pointer" in Hungarian, so named for their adept skill in pointing out game while hunting.

The Vizsla breed was almost wiped out when the communists occupied Hungary after World War II, but expatriates fleeing to Canada in the 1930s took their Vizslas with them and essentially saved the breed.

Vizslas were used to create both the Weimaraner and German Shorthaired Pointer breeds.
