Hi !
Thank-you for your interest in Mattucci's Vizslas! A Vizsla is a wonderful
choice for a canine companion and one that many of our new owners find
are impossible to live without once they become part of their lives!!. These
are very loving, loyal and intelligent dogs. This is very active but, can be
easily trained. It should be noted that this breed DOES require attention
and training in order to become a wonderful family member and constant
companion!! Our mission is to breed only dogs that are able to combine
health and outstanding temperments as well as illustrating the AKC breed
standard
We always recommend that prospective new owners spend some time at
a wonderful website called the Ingle and Mead's Vizsla Encyclopedia . It is
a great source of info about this breed. We also find that the Animal
Planet's Dogs 101 link can be very beneficial as well. Please watch the
video on Vizslas.
We do actively show our dogs and one of our girls, "Raisen" was shown at
Westminster in 2006 following the competition of her AKC Championship.
Our boy "Red" is an American and Canadian Champion and we have
others that are hitting the conformation and performance rings.
Healthy dogs are a priority for us and all of our dogs either have their OFA
clearances for hips (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) or Penn Hip
evaluations indicating that they are free of hip dysplasia.
It should be noted that we do NOT place my pups at their new "forever
homes" before 8 weeks after birth (per PA State Law). The cost to
purchase one of our exceptional Vizsla "babies" is $1,200.00 for either a
male or female puppy on spay/neuter companion contracts. Show
prospect puppies are occasionally available but, each situation will be
reviewed individually and contractual obligations will be outlined in writing.
We do require a deposit of 1/2 down to hold a puppy. With your purchase
of one of our "babies" you will receive a beautiful, healthy, vet-checked &
inoculated Vizsla baby with complete health records & a written sales
contract including our guarantee against hip dysplasia. We also have a
LIFETIME return policy stating should it be necessary that you can no
longer keep or care for your Vizsla you must return the dog to us, the
breeders, or we will assist you in placing the puppy/dog in an approved
home which we have screened. (Again, this return policy remains for the
life of the dog!!)
It is our intention, as responsible breeders, to place each of our puppies
into a loving, caring lifetime home where they will live a full and contented
life as 4-legged members of the family. Most importantly, we offer lifetime
assist with your Q's or concerns about your Vizsla.
Kathy is a member of the Vizsla Club of America, the Bushy Run Kennel
Club and the newly formed Keystone Vizsla Club. We have owned Vizslas
for over 12 yrs. Our "babies" ALL live in our home and are 4 legged
members of our family!
Thanks again for your interest in our exceptional "V's"
Best Regards,
Kathy and Albert Mattucci & the Mattucci Vizslas
