Our
journey into the Vizsla
world began in earnest in
2005, but can be traced back
to Long Island - mid 1960’s.
While walking my Scottish
Terrier, my dog from
kindergarten through high
school, we’d occasionally
see a man walking his
Vizsla. Its beauty as a
hunter made me think “I love
my dog, but one day would
love to have one of those.”
After college I lived
without a dog for years,
enjoying the company of my
friends’ dogs…Goldens, Labs
& Chesapeake Retrievers. In
early 2005 my wife Ginny
asked what I wanted for my
birthday that summer. I said
“a Vizsla” - Ginny responded
“a what?”
Ginny grew up with Beagles,
so the idea of a dog wasn’t
foreign, but she never said
yea or nay. I quickly seized
the opportunity and a friend
introduced me to Jean Matmor
of Valley Hunter, who
introduced us to Mary
Rathbun of Egri Vizslas in
Minden, Louisiana. Mary had
a small litter of three
Vizsla puppies as a result
of a second breeding of her
bitch CH Egri Elegans, JH,
ROM to a male she also bred,
CH Egri I Like Ike, CDX, MH,
AX, OAJ, VC, ROM, owned and
loved by Dr. Edward and
Adele Neupert. Of the three
pups, there was one bitch
still available and that
girl became our Luna.
CH Egri Luna Bella of
Edisonia, JH CGC. Four years
and a bunch of fun,
rewarding Vizsla experiences
later, we are now “breeders”
with our own kennel name.
A wild ride for someone who
just wanted a pet V!
We hope you enjoy our
website and wish you well on
your own journey into the
wonderful, loving and
exciting world of the
Hungarian or Magyar Vizsla!
