What can I say, I love this dog! I watched "Tanner" grow up in and around the SoCal area and liked him from young puppy. Tanner has since matured into a lovely and versatile Vizsla. He has a gorgeous front assembly, perfect catlike feet and exemplifies the effortless movement this breed is known for. Tanner is a natural in the field and earned an NAVHDA Prize 1 in Natural Ability, and easily earned his Junior Hunter title, he is training for Advanced Hunt titles in-between his show schedule.

In the show ring, Tanner is currently ranked #5 All Breed (2019) and was #6 in 2018. He is a multiple Sporting Group Winner and Group Placer and has four (4) Best in Specialty Show (BISS) wins and SoCal Sporting Dog Group Win (May 2018) and he earned a prestigious Silver Grand Championship along the way.

Tanner is no doubt impressive with his birdwork and show wins, but he is a true stand out for his  excellent temperament. He gets along with all dogs and has never met a stranger, this type of  temperament is what I look for when choosing a Sire, and Tanner is all that and more in terms of biddability and and is an overall sweet boy.
