Welcome
to the Vizsla Club of Illinois Breeder Referral Listing!
The
purposes of this webpage:
• To educate prospective puppy buyers about the breed and
about breeding
• To provide a service to our member Breeders so they might
share the information about their kennel and their available litters
• To connect prospective buyers with reputable breeders
from our Club
The
following members of the Vizsla Club of Illinois (VCOI) have paid
for inclusion on the online Breeder Directory. The VCOI guidelines
for inclusion on the list suggest that Breeders breed only with
the intention of improving the standard as recognized by the American
Kennel Club (AKC), exhibit soundness, stable temperament and natural
hunting ability. In addition, our guidelines endorse the efforts
of the Vizsla Club of American (VCA) and Orthopedic Foundation
for Animals (OFA) to eliminate hip dysplasia in dogs and suggest
breeding only those dogs that are over two years of age and have
been x-rayed and OFA certified as free from hip dysplasia, and
those dogs free of serious hereditary defects including epilepsy,
progressive retinal atrophy, Von Willebrands, entropian and cranial
atrophy.

Vizsla Club of Illinois, its Officers, Directors, Membership,
or Webmaster. It is the responsibility of the puppy buyer to do
research on individual breeders and stud dog owners. The VCOI
assumes no responsibility for the accuracy of the information
submitted and provides no endorsements for dogs, individuals,
or kennels. The VCOI guidelines ask breeders to be fair and honest
in their dealing with prospective buyers, and model the Code of
Ethics of our parent club, the Vizsla Club of America.
