Books and Resources on the VIZSLA
This catalogue of Vizsla Books and Resource is in date order, from 1968 through to the present time. Some of them will be out of print, others will be updated and revised. All of the books will give you a further insight into the character, conformation, and vivacity of the vizsla. Some give great advice for new puppy owners and hints on training. The best books for depth and detail are written by Vizsla Breed specialists, such as Bernard Boggs, and Marion Coffman in the USA and the late Gay Gottlieb in the UK. If you find others which are worthy of a mention, drop an email to secretary@vizsla.org.uk and we will be happy to add to this list.
