Happy Birthday Whiskey!

Happy Birthday Whiskey!

My little girl is 1 year old. We’ve both been working overtime these days so we haven’t been able to have her a little party, though I we gifted her with a custom made dog monster-toy from etsy. Lets see if this one lasts! Here’s…

Beginner Agility Classes

Beginner Agility Classes

Agility is not just dogs jumping around We knew Vizslas were fast runners, amazing trail/obstacle racers, and we knew they could jump high, but we didn’t quite realize what an agile little bunny we had with Whiskey. Early on we encouraged her to climb up…
