General Appearance
That of a medium-sized short-coated hunting dog of distinguished appearance and bearing. Robust but rather lightly built; the coat is an attractive solid golden rust. This is a dog of power and drive in the field yet a tractable and affectionate companion in the home.
Owning
Vizslas are small enough to be good dogs for a city apartment, but remember like other sporting dogs they require daily exercise. Vizsla's are sensitive dogs, devoted to those who treat them kindly and give them attention. The Vizsla is not very discriminating to who he shows affection, he loves everyone.
Temperament
A natural hunter endowed with a good nose and above-average ability to take training. Lively, gentle-mannered, demonstrably affectionate and sensitive though fearless with a well developed protective instinct.
