Hungary
The ancestors of the Braco Hungarian came with the first nomadic Hungarian tribes. The first written mentions and representations appear in14th century documents. Their special significance for hunting grows from the 18th century.
At the end of the 19th century, tests for Bracos in which the Vizsla participated with excellent performance.
At that time, other hunting dogs were involved in the breed formation. Oriented and regulated breeding began in 1920, being recognized by FCI in 1936 as the Hungarian Pointer of short hair.
Vizslas are dogs that form a very close bond with their human families. They tend to be following one person in the family all the time. They are also very intelligent, curious and dynamic dogs. One of their most notable behavioral qualities is their fascination with water.
