Fusion Vizslas Rings in the New Year with a Pheasant Hunt
Pheasant hunting with the Vizslas
Trip stands steady--Good puppy!!
Trip (CH Boulder's N Fusion's Power Trip SH) stands steady. See the flushing rooster in the upper right side of the picture? She even stood (on her own without a command) through the first shot! What a great puppy!
Vizsla Kosmo pointing a pheasant rooster
Kosmo (CH Derby's Read Em And Weep MH) points a pheasant. Check out his style!! He did a very nice job of "holding" this rooster--not applying too much pressure so as to make it take flight or run. Sounds like a no-brainer for an upland bird dog but it can, more often than not, be a refined skill. One a bird dog learns by hunting lots of birds!
Vizslas hunting pheasant -- Kosmo on point, Dart and Suede honor
A *very* cool photo! Kosmo, an AKC Master Hunter, holds his point on a pheasant. Suede, also an AKC Master Hunter and "officially" known as CH Boulder's Power of Persuasion CD RE MH VC, honors Kosmo's point as does Dart, BISS DC AFC Red Oak Totem from SnowRidge JH, OA, AXJ, NF.

Vizsla Dart holds point on a pheasant
Vizsla Dart holds point on a pheasant--It was exciting to see her hit this point, she was running past this clump and as she passed, she stopped hard in her tracks, turned her head to indicate *exactly* where the pheasant was. Follow her nose...

Showoffs!! Vizsla Dart retrieves to Jan's...hand? Love it!

A very sweet moment. Monte retrieves a pheasant to proud Mama Janice. Monte did a beautiful job holding his point on this bird even as the other Vizslas applied quite a bit of "pressure".

Vizsla Kosmo models his neoprene hunting vest. We love these vests--they keep the Vizslas warm and help protect them from the nasty, narly multiflora thorn bushes.
