Where To Find Vizsla Puppies For Sale In Texas
The only place you should go to buy a vizsla puppy is a reputable vizsla breeder.
But a huge challenge (particularly for new dog owners) when looking for vizsla puppies for sale is knowing how and where to find reputable vizsla puppy breeders.
Unfortunately there are many puppy mills, pet stores and disreputable backyard breeders who don’t have the best interests of their dogs, puppies or the breed top of mind.
So to be sure you are dealing with the best vizsla breeders in Texas, here are 5 tips to help you narrow down your search:
- Contact your local vizsla club and ask for recommendations for vizsla dog breeders in your area
- Verify the breeder’s credentials, club memberships and certifications
- Visit more than one breeder and meet them in person
- Ask if the puppies are health screened and whether they provide a health guarantee and registration papers
- Ask if the puppies have been bred for field work and hunting or as show dogs.
Health tested dogs can be verified at ofa.org and bloodlines viewed at vizsladatabase.com
Finally, be prepared to accept that sourcing a vizsla puppy from the right breeder takes time and you may need to wait 6-12 months for the perfect pup that is within your price range.
If you are prepared to look further afield, you can enquire with vizsla breeders in other states:
- Vizsla breeders New England
- Florida vizsla breeders
- Vizsla breeders in Illinois
- Vizsla breeders California
Hallmarks Of Reputable Vizsla Breeders
Top vizsla breeders are passionate about advancing and protecting the breed.
Reputable breeders aim to produce healthy dogs that meet the standard for the vizsla dog breed and are not driven solely by income generated through puppy sales.
Hallmarks of reputable vizsla breeders include:
- Careful selection of parents and a thorough knowledge of their bloodlines.

- Health tests are completed for both the parents and puppies.

All respected vizsla breeders should ask what you are looking for in a vizsla puppy – whether you are looking to hunt or show the dog or looking for a companion dog.
The perfect temperament for a companion dog will differ to one that will succeed in the field. So be guided by the breeder when looking for a puppy.
