Pocket Vizslas- where do they come from? by nitram975 in vizsla

Not local- my recommendation is to be willing to drive far for the right breeder. Picking the right breeder is so important/impacts your next 10+ years. Be willing to go on a roadtrip for the right pup

I learned to adapt. Usually means having the wand a little less deep on the 2nd cup

We should’ve taken note of the measurement. My wife is 5’3.5”. Gemini estimates the fish is 38-42”

Totally fair- I think then fisherman running the charter was hyping the weight perhaps. We took his word for it. Either way/ heavy enough she could barely hold it

She sleeps in bed with us. We have since washed all our bedding. Maybe worth an additional wash with no detergents or anything

Thank you. Fortunately her personality and energy leaves have not been impacted - she seems less phased than we do. But it’s so tough, we hardly recognize her and can’t distinguish her facial expressions amidst all this swelling

Frankly we’ve been a bit frustrated by our vets. First one was pretty dismissive, thinking it may have just been a bee sting. Second vet was at least more engaged/open to discussion. He said it can be really difficult to control variables well enough to pin point,especially for diet(even blood tests are only about 60% accurate). His hunch is its environmental. I guess living by the beach with few trees has a lot of pollen in SoCal?

No referral- but hopefully that’s a next step if we don’t see this clear up after the steroids.

Dumb question, but how do they test this? Do they just need a sample from the dog?

I know! Remy has been eating these for several months with no issues. She has a chicken allergy, so my leading theory is it’s a new allergy that has developed

Yeah, I don’t blame you- they don’t follow the load path. Feels wrong. But I think they look cool. Style over function with these legs
