Breed Health Survey

All Vizsla owners – please take part in the Kennel Club Breed Health Survey
BREED HEALTH SURVEY

It has been many years since our last Breed Health Coordinator organised a Kennel Club Breed Health Survey. This survey is independent of both the Hungarian Vizsla Society and the Hungarian Vizsla Club. You do not need to be a member of either, this is a RKC initiative. The purpose is to get as true a picture as possible of the health status of our breed, the Hungarian Vizsla. 

It is important that as many vizsla owners as possible complete the survey to ensure that any conclusions drawn from the results are as accurate as possible and reflect the whole population.

Vizsla face on

Kennel Club Canine Genetics Centre – URGENT APPEAL

As some of you may be aware the Kennel Club has withdrawn funding from the 

Canine Genetics Centre to concentrate funding on BOAS (Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome) and IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease). This leaves the centre in a very vulnerable position and a shortfall of £345,000 per annum.
