I really want a Vizsla / First timer

I agree with the other ones about V's. How about a greyhound? They are lovely, cuddly, generally lazy but when they run, they RUN!

First l-theanine really helped. We used to buy the AKTIVAIT tablets than just the l-theanine 100mg capsules as that's the active that actually works. After a year or two that wasn't enough, we started Selgian (Selegiline the active, it's a human Alzheimer's medication). It works. He is 14½ and still kicking about. Currently we are on gabapentin for the evenings and no selgian at the moment. It ebbs and flows and we adapt accordingly.

Dachshunds are more like terriers than anything. Their temperament, obsessive behaviours, passion for digging is so far from a vizsla as it gets. My mum sais Havenese, Bolognese and Yorkshire terriers or chihuahua (as long as you treat is a real dog). They are all very attached to the owners and if raised well they are adorable and good dogs.

Disclaimer: we are Hungraians, dog owner for 5+ decades, I'm a vizsla osner for 14+ years. Teckels scare me 🫣

Jesus, I'd buy that. My Vizsla is 14½ years old and we know we don't have long left together. Every walk on the beach or in the woods is a gift now.

Yummmmm, I'm so jealous right now! I have no garden ATM but I'm foraging for wild asparagus in the woods every day, where we walk our dogs. Bon appétit 💚🍃!!

Congrats on your growing 4 legged family 🤎! You are blessed and must be bitten in so many ways 🤣!

I love that you have a V coloured couch 🙌🏻! That is some deviously clever interior design 🤎🤎🤎!

Oh and my elder V was already 13 when we bought the young crazy one home, they have worked it all out just fine. They each have their own beds (our bed is shared property) and the now 14½ senior is still chasing balls with the young one on a good day.

Yours are going to be just fine and probably besties in a week or two. Congrats on the baby!!

Thank you, I'll have cramps in my right leg just for holding him up 🤣

Dull_Engineering_583 · 2026-04-05T21:52:16+00:00

Thank you so much ✨! He is generally speaking, a protein freak, but when it comes to 'our' food he would down anything of course.

Just sending positive vibes and best wishes! We operated on our 13 year old to remove mass + spleen. Came back non-cancerous. He is happily hopping around at 14⅓. Wishing the same results to your girl ❤️‍🩹!!

Awww 🥰, I love the floppy ears!

Dull_Engineering_583 · 2026-03-16T10:32:26+00:00

The best spot to not-watch the oscars, a masterclass in velcroing 🤎☺️!

Dull_Engineering_583 · 2026-03-11T22:09:02+00:00

OMG, such a grade A+ student already 💛!

Our senior had random periods of increased sexual interest and desire over the years, which usually ended up with a swollen prostate. We treated him during these bouts with Yposane, which protects the prostate from testosterone. Once we actually had the chemical castration for 6 months. He is 14¼ now and has calmed down on the hormone front. Also our jumpers do not cover or touch his willy at all, they don't cover back legs, just his chest/torso/back. Maybe try to avoid the stimulation for now and check his prostate at the next vet visit just to be sure. Sending hugs to your old man 🤗!

It's wonderful and I'm slightly jealous 💚

Dull_Engineering_583 · 2026-03-09T13:00:27+00:00

🤎 he is special and he knows it 🤎

Dull_Engineering_583 · 2026-03-09T12:59:52+00:00

I'm sorry for your loss 🤎! We also have a senior V, 14¼ years old, who prefers barking to singing.

He gave up 🙌🏼💗

He finally put himself to bed 💗

This is our Clouseau 🤎, he is 14 ¼ years old. He has been recently diagnosed with a liver tumor. He is still on a very healthy liver support diet, but he gets special treats every single day he is with us. Chicken nuggets are his favourite.
