What is a Vizsla and how does it look?

A Vizsla is a medium sized Hungarian hunting dog.  There have only been Vizslas in the US since after World War II.  

There are many breeds mistaken for a Vizsla, like Coonhounds, Weimaraners and Rhodesian Ridgebacks.  Vizslas have reddish brown fur that is short.  Their nose is the best way to tell a Vizsla.  It is always the same color as their fur.  The name Vizsla is pronounced "vish-la".  The Vizsla weighs around 45 to 60 pounds and is 22 to 26 inches tall.  They live about 12-15 years.  

Their floppy ears are adorable.  When they are puppies, they are at their cutest.  They have wrinkly faces and green or blue eyes.
