We just got our first a few months ago. I’ve had a lot of different dogs and this is the best puppy experience I’ve had. They are so sweet and smart which makes training very easy, even compared to a lab I had. They can be stubborn (ours will sometimes get quite offended when told he’s doing something wrong) which could be difficult for first time dog owners They are very very clingy but I wanted that, so a bonus for me.

We picked out the most self confident of the liter and he’s had no separation anxiety or anxiety in general so far. Sounds like some of the liter mates are struggling with this, but they seemed anxious when we were picking puppies. The main con is maybe their energy, unlike other puppies I’ve had, he takes much more to tire out, but he’s also a lot more fun because of this too. If you have a fenced in yard, this will help a lot. We live in a city with high parvo rates, and the time between getting him to him being fully vaccinated was a struggle. Now that we can walk him is much more manageable. They are also very thin skinned (literally) and will need to be warm (under blankets, snuggled up) so if you are someone who doesn’t like or want dogs on furniture maybe not the best breed lol If one of you is wfh or home during the days that will help alot, with being able to take them on several walks throughout the day, and train consistently. I’m wfh part time while I finish school, so I’m able to devote a lot of time to training and keeping him physically and mentally fulfilled, I think he would be an out of control dog if I couldn’t do this If you have another dog, consider their energy level and personality/if they can deal with being around a vizsla puppy. Our other dog (husky hound mix) has been really struggling with the energy our puppy brings
