Thread: ***VIZSLA PUPS***

They have arrived. Finished work at 11pm and have been up since.
6 Boys.
1 Girl.

All pups will be docked, have dew claws removed and be NZKC registered.

Dam(Deerseeker Zara)-both her parents are owned and hunted by Mark McGlashan on Poronui Station.

Sire(NZ CH Heiderst Hot Chilli)is owned by Kath and Pete Lodge-Ponsonby Gundogs.

Flick me a PM and I answer any questions you have.

Photos of the pups once they are cleaned up a bit.

Few photos of Zara in the field. Not claiming she is responsible for all the deer but definitely a few.









New born baby in the house. We had heard enough for one night!!


Mates first Sika was completely down to having her with us-indicated it at the tip of a ridge and then tracked the blood trail.

The new additions.











Sire.

The sire looks a really strong dog...very nice...I like the depth of his muzzle and cranial planes...

Girl sold.

Just curios as to why remove dew claws?

"A dewclaw (commonly referred to as a Dog's thumb) is a vestigial digit on the foot of many mammals, birds, and reptiles (including some extinct orders, like certain theropods). It commonly grows high on the leg so that in digitigrade species, when the animal is standing, it does not make contact with the ground. It can become caught on undergrowth and infection can set in. Dewclaws are perhaps best known in dogs, and they are often removed in young puppies, though there is debate on whether this is necessary."

An answer I found on the net. Should hopefully not open to much of a massive debate.

Cheers our dogs have them and while I keep them trimmed a couple of times they have split and ripped half the claw off.

And once you've seen one of those fuckers hanging off your dogs leg by a thread, you'll appreciate someone cutting it off at birth.
Good luck with your litter Dylan, they should be crackers.

Because my boy was dumped at the river, he did not have the luxury of having them trimmed off. And he must be 1/4 dinosaur because he has double dew claws on the rear legs! Lucky I guess.... (they need to be banadaged up close to the leg during bush bashing, we've had one of those fuckers get badly torn during a trip up Oxford).

That blue boy is going to be a tank

Ready to go to their new homes in a week or so.
