Vizsla History
There are lots of sites that report the Vizsla has been as it is today since the Dark Ages. That is romanticizing a very tumultuous past. The breed was reduced to approximately 12 known purebred individuals after WWII. Some historical data is here. Mostly, I have collections of photos and snippets of history as given to me by the owners of that information or their representatives.
