Found my new pup

[bauerline]

I wrote about the new pup I'll be getting in the PA forum but thought I would post here as well.

My oldest dog is 10 and he is hunting well but I have been looking for another vizsla for a while now (the 6 year old is doing great, too). It took some time and I've declined a pup a couple of weeks ago but I finally found a litter I like and will be getting one of the two males. The breeder is in TX and at first I wasn't sure about getting a puppy from so far away (I'm in PA). But things have a way of working out and the breeder works for an airline and will fly with the dog to PA from TX to deliver him. His name will be RedPointe's Nittany Lion Champion and go by Champ. He'll be ready for me at the end of January and the everybody is excited to have him in our family.

I think he needs one more point for his field trial title.

These two dogs are from some lines I was looking at who are in the VA area. Funny I had to find what I wanted in TX and they got their start a couple hours from home.

The sire's pedigree looks quit impressive with a lot of field champions but the dam's pedigree is almost entirely made up of show dogs. Hope they didn't breed the hunting out like has happened with so many breeds.

The dam is a good hunter and has 10 field trial placements at this time. I think she is on her way to getting her field trial title as well. The dam's mother also has 26 field trial placements and has an AFC title. I think there is enough SH and MH titles along with the FT placements on the her side and I feel good about the breeding.

Sounds good, and if all works out you should have one fine looking hunting dog.

Thanks. I'm looking forward to getting him.
