it's more about the handlers and politics.
my cousin has bred german shorthair pointers for 30 years. i used to travel weekends with them. the losing because of politics is tough to take after awhile.

it's amazing what it takes to campiagn a dog to be #1 in the breed or #1 in the country .
my cousins are small breeders so they only have pups every couple years. they try to improve the bred and their bloodlines so they research before breeding. they are well respected on the east coast and have had many champions but to see what they went through to get back a couple years ago for the champion i mentioned, it was tough to watch. they ALL most had to pull her off the road.

But the Vizsla is a remarkable breed with an amazing story. The Nazis tried to exterminate ALL of them during WWII, and it is believed there were perhaps 50 left in Europe by 1945. They date back to the Magyars (@ 900-1000 years), were bred originally by the Royal Family of Hungary, and their comeback has been carefully managed.. They're considered among the smartest breed; are athletic and tireless workers; fiercely loyal and protective; exceptional with children. And gorgeous on top of everything else.. Coonhounds have fared well over the years at Westminster I believe.. Wasn't there a young one best of group last year?

You can watch the actual breed judging on video clips.Some won't be judged for best in breed until Tuesday,and the vids won't be up until Tuesday afternoon(more likely the evening.) As far as the Viszla goes,those are hunting dogs.I don't mean that they use to do that.People hunt with them all the time,and therefore,they breed them towards this end.They love people.Every breed is more appropriate for some people than others.This breed has a ton of energy(which you would want in a hunting dog,)and unless they get a chance to use that energy,they can put it towards great mischief(jump fences etc.)One needs to really consider traits of a particular breed before they consider buying a type of dog.Breeders are biased towards their breed,and will tell you that there breed is no problem to own,but you need to find objective opinions about breeds.The most vanilla dog breed(meaning pretty much anybody will be able to handle owning) that I have had experience with is the Golden Retriever.

I also hope for a coonhound, or maybe a visla, or the brittany (cause I've had a few). German shorthairs are nice too. Heck, a black and tan!!! Just my two cents...it's very political. http://www.projo.com/lifebeat/conten...MD.7a5799.html
