The Vizsla by Bernard C Boggs (revised 2000)

"Without question, the best book on the Vizsla breed on the market today...
A more complete book on the breed just does not exist...
It is my reference book!"

Succeeding with Pointing Dogs: Field Trials and Hunt Tests
by Bernard C Boggs


Glenbrier Publishing Company published this book in 1989 in conjunction with the
author. It has all the information a new owner of a pointing dog needs to train,
hunt, compete and judge in field trials and hunt tests, as well as information
on how to operate an AKC field trial or hunt test.

Dog owners, both professional and amateur, have praised
Succeeding with pointing dogs--FIELD TRIALS & HUNTING TESTS
as being the most useful and informative on the market.
