The Vizsla is a sleek coated, rust colored, quick-footed gundog. Combining affection and skill for hunting, the Vizsla alternates between an intense work personality and a loving, sensitive personality while at home.

The Vizsla, as a skilled athlete, is the only breed to have won championships in five different sports in American Kennel Club history.
