I've owned both. The Vizsla seems to be more in touch how the owner FEELS. They seem to be uniquely intelligent with a sense of humor. I love all dogs but the Vizsla seems to be in a class by itself. Peace7

In Hungary we call the yellow one just vizsla, and the german pointer the german vizsla

❤ Weimaraner, ❤ Vizsla, and ❤ GSP ... Beauties and great best friends all.

I have had experience with both breeds and for the most part they are very similar. The major difference that I have had is GSP's are more independent than Vizsla. This can manifest in a manor of different ways, in the field GSP's tend to hunt for themselves and you have to keep up with them; while a Vizsla will hunt for you and constantly want to know where you in the field and they tend not to range as far away in the field as a GSP would. GSP's can have a bit of a stubborn streak in them; think of a 2 - 3 year old child having a meltdown in a shopping mall. The GSP on a occasion will look at you as if to say. "I know what you want BUT that is not going to happen today!".

Vizsla's tend to be far more clingy than a German Shorthaired Pointer, most Vizsla owners simply refer to the dog breed as 'V' for Velcro.

No matter what breed you end up with and you are able to provide the exercise and training the breed requires then you will have made an excellent choice for 12 - 16 years.

We have a male Vizsla who is the embodiment of a velcro dog .. very sensitive and clingy. Great companion for a retired but active couple like us. His most beloved friend is a female GSP…wonderful dog but quite strong willed. You did a good job describing those two breeds

[hathorsmirror]

We have one of each, both rescued. Love them both dearly! 🥰

[THFFChannel]

We simple call the Hun Vizsla "Vizsla" and the GSP "German Vizsla" in Hungary :)

[blakefields]

I really like your video, it was nicely done. You presented a lot of specific, detailed, unbiased information. Thank you!

[mariaburchette]

It makes sense the two are similar since the GSP was bred from the Vizsla. I have a Vizsla and she is more human than dog. I love her dearly.

Excellent! Have to agree about the advice for GSP owners and small animals. My lad - who’s encouraged when asked to hunt to keep the rabbits, moles, mice and rats in control in our paddocks - struggles to see our little terrier as a friend. Fortunately, little Max is a little Mad and not only keeps Freddie honest, he is in fact in charge. But Max is older, wiser, learned how to rule the roost when a gun-trained working spaniel arrived and thinks those paddocks are ‘his’. I’m not so sure that a little house pooch would do so well....

I have both breeds at the moment, and they're both great dogs to have in a family household. The only real thing is that our GSP is a lot more intendent then our Vizsla. But besides that, they are great!

[Mrives]

Hi Will, when are we getting a Fenrir Vizsla?

[kenandrieling]

Great video! I've owned short hairs for 30 years

If only this bloke were more humble, and articulate I would subscribe.

I got a GSP 11 months old now, I love her to death but boy, I didn't know what I got myself into, haha, good part is I lost about 3 sizes of pants from all the walks and she really starts to be very trainable now but in the beginning, that energy! couldn't keep her focussed for 1 second and her being my first GSP I had no idea how to get it. Now however we are great companions, I am not sure however if this breed is very suitable for little kids, I got two wild boys age 5 and 7 and she is very wild with them, luckily my kids are wild and tough so they don't mind getting thrown over or being dragged trough the snow or mud by their clothes but I can imagine not all kids will like that.

We love our Vizslas so much. Their tender hearts make it easy to love them, even when they are bouncing off the walls with their energy. I think GSPs are lovely dogs, too, but if they’re more stubborn than our Vs, I think we have made a good choice. 😊

[DartingPostie]

Great video Will! My girlfriend and I 5 weeks ago bought a 8 week old GSP and a 12 week old Vizsla. Training is going really well all thanks to your tips 👍🏻 great knowing that training for our GSP will be abit tougher as he is our younger one. So we will work on that. Keep up the quality videos 😁

[mikes]

Having had both at different times in my life, I feel the gsp is more willing to do everything for hunting. Most of the vizslas I have encountered are less likely to want to go into water and retrieve.

[robdailey]

We are on our 3rd GSP. What a great bread.

[joanthompson]

We have had both these breeds and love them both...Vizsla was more easy going, where GSP much more domineering and pushy, also much more athletic...thankfully we have lots of space to enjoy her gallop as fast as she can go for as long as she wants (most of the time); she keeps an eye on us and returns when whistled back in...word to the wise ...gets ' cabin fever' without a good run or long walk EVERY day!!!
