Vizsla stud dogs that hunt, show and live as family
The Vizsla is Hungary's golden pointer, and breeders work hard to keep it a true dual-purpose dog. Many of the best sires hold both show and field titles. So VerifiedStuds shows each stud's titles next to his health results and fee, from an identity-verified owner.

Claim this spotVizsla stud fees usually run from $600 to $1,500. A health-tested male without titles often charges $600 to $1,200. However, field champions, Master Hunters, show champions and dual champions commonly ask $1,500 to $2,500.
These are market estimates, since fees are private. A stud that holds titles at both ends of his name is rare, so expect to pay more for him. Our stud fee guide explains fees and puppy-back deals.
$600 to $1,500+
Overall range: $600 to $2,500
Health-tested, untitled male: $600 to $1,200
Field, show or dual champion: $1,500 to $2,500
The Vizsla Club of America sets three tests for a CHIC number, and the AKC lists them on its Sporting Group health testing page. Owners upload these results for the Verified Health badge:
Test
What we accept
Hips
OFA hip evaluation or PennHIP
Eyes
Exam by a board-certified ophthalmologist (ACVO)
Thyroid
OFA thyroid panel from an approved lab
Brucellosis
Negative test taken before the breeding
Beyond the list, ask about epilepsy and cancer in the pedigree, because both are concerns in the breed and neither has a screening test. Skin allergies also run in some families. Therefore, an older stud with healthy adult offspring is a reassuring choice. Registered results are on the OFA website.
For a primer on hips, eyes and thyroid panels, see our health testing guides.
First, look for balance. The breed ideal is a dog that can win in the show ring on Saturday and point birds on Sunday. So titles on both sides, such as a show championship plus a hunt test title, say a lot about a sire.
Next, match his style to your buyers. Field trial lines run bigger and faster, while many show and companion lines hunt closer. In addition, ask how he handles being left alone, because Vizslas attach strongly to their people.
Finally, check size and color. Males should stand 22 to 24 inches, and dogs more than an inch and a half outside the standard are disqualified. The coat must be golden rust. Also expect a gentle, sensitive nature that responds to kind handling.
The AKC describes the Vizsla as affectionate, gentle and energetic. Hungarian nobles hunted with these dogs for centuries. The breed almost died out after the Second World War, and breeders rebuilt it from a small number of survivors.
Vizslas are often called Velcro dogs, since they stay close to their owners. They need daily running and plenty of company. As a result, they suit active homes that want one dog for field and family.
Vizslas mate naturally without much help. However, titled sires are spread thinly, so chilled semen is common. Frozen semen is used too, including imports from Hungary. Each profile lists the methods the owner offers.

The parent club list covers hips, eyes and thyroid. We also require a negative brucellosis test before each breeding.

It is a dog that has earned both an AKC show championship and an AKC field championship. Therefore, it has proved both looks and ability.
Are Vizslas good family dogs?
Yes, for active families. They are gentle and loving, but they need a lot of exercise and dislike being alone.

Yes. Every breed is welcome on VerifiedStuds.
