Another Year Another Litter of Puppies?

How the years fly by! Once again another year has passed, since I was writing  on this blog about our forthcoming litter of puppies.

"Bicton Bear it All" or otherwise "Meg" has  finally come into season, we are hoping for another successful mating with her husband "Visions of Success" otherwise known as "Leko".


Leko and Meg
 Our dogs live on our small farm and mix regularly with all of our animals and poultry, which roam on a free range basis over the grounds.

We have horses, sheep and lambs, Vietnamese pot bellied pigs, chickens,geese, ducks and rabbits The dogs know that to chase or kill them is strictly forbidden, they abide by the rules reluctantly!
 We already have several  people who are patiently waiting  for a puppy, So I am delighted that things are moving along now.

For those of you who are new to this blog, "Meg" is the daughter of the illustrious Hungarian Vizsla



Hungargunn Bear it'n Mind who was the outright winner of Crufts Dog Show in 2010,.



Meg has had two previous litters of puppies, the first litter she had 10 beautiful puppies,then she astounded us by producing 13 puppies (11 survived). I do hope for a nice easy time this year, my wish would be a "small" litter of 7 or 8, however no doubt, she is sure to surprise us once again.

Lucia and I are very lucky, because many dogs, from our previous litters ,come back to visit us, therefore we see them through all of their stages of development.

At times we have had eight vizslas in the house at one time.
It is so nice to see our family greeting their offspring, the mothers always remember their children, and the males welcome all the dogs, without seeing them as intruding on their own territory.

We have three male dogs living here with two females as a family,they are always easy to handle,as long as they know who is their leader.


Of course they respect each other (as in a wolf pack) they know their places in the pecking order and they are happy and content.

Hungarian Vizslas are very intelligent and very sensitive, however if they do not have boundaries, they can become naughty at times.The answer is to be their pack leader, they will then be obedient, loving and your constant shadow.

The best thing about Vizslas is how much they adore you they, demand your love and company, however at times, especially when they even want to join you in the bathroom, this can be the worst thing about them too.

As I write this I have one behind me on the office chair,one under the desk and another licking my ear!


If you wish to be added to the waiting list please just contact either myself or Lucia
