​

3 out of four of our dogs love it.

​

We serve food 4 -5 times a day and will do so until about 14-18 weeks where we aim for 3 -4 servings, we also have a few snacks especially chilled or frozen carrots batons. This helps with teething.

All servings are approx. 125-150 grams. This amount is increasing. We hardly ever serve the same thing more than once a day apart from their dry food ( 1 or sometimes 2 times a day  “James Wellbeloved” , Turkey and rice)  

We have not moved to raw food yet; we will slowly introduce that once a day in a few weeks’ time. We eventually aim to have 1 raw session, 1 home cooked session and 1 dry food session per day plus snacks and treats.

 

In regards to treats we buy pigs ears and rabbit ears for our older dogs from:

​

​

​

​

​

They have a great deli section. They have small treats for pups like sprats.

These are ideal for helping with training. Please remember to avoid oily fish like Mackerel & Salmon.

You will need to worm your pup at 9 week & 11 weeks old. Once it is 3 months there are different worming tablets that can last up to 3 months. When the pup is 6 months old you can find some worming tablets that last for 6 months.

​

From when you bring your puppy home at eight weeks until they are four months old, it's best to feed them four to fivemeals a day. 

At four months, reduce this to three meals a day and when they turn six months, reduce to two-three meals. Continue a morning and evening meal for your pup's life.

​

We like to mix up the food for the pups. This is a guide to an average day feeding, (until they are 4 months old) about 125 grams per serving. If the pup is still hungry then give it more food.

CHECK LIST AND TIPS FOR NEW OWNERS

​

 

1. Book a vet’s appointment within 7 days just for peace of mind and to make sure he or she is 100% tip top. Please make sure you get the correct local vaccinations for your pup.

2. Wait 2 weeks after their second L4 jab before venturing into the big wide world.

3. Please remember that at 12 weeks old they should only go on very short walks, 15- 20 minutes maximum a day. This gets longer as the pup gets bigger and fully develops.                      

4. Renew your insurance once the KC insurance runs out after 5 weeks.

5. Remember worming at 10 weeks and 12 weeks. After that you can move onto worming tablets that lasts 3 months.  We recomend Panacur Small Animal Wormer - 10% Oral Suspension 100ml. 

6. Start training right away, Vizsla pups like (love)  food so encouragement and reward is the way forward. Distraction with a toy or treat is also a great trick.

7. Puppies will eat anything and everything if you let them! You have to be extra safe for the first few months.

8. We find yelping, like a pup, is helpful when they attach themselves to one of your toes. We use that noise as a basic training tool to let them know they are hurting us.

9. Make sure you have basic provisions for your Pups. We use puppy pads from Pets for Homes. They are being trained to do their thing on these.

10.  Please make provision for their cozy spot where they can relax. They will need time to adjust as they will miss all their             Brothers  and Sisters.

 11. Remember to buy a ID tag with the owners info for your pup. All dogs must have one when outside.

 12.  Please read our contract and terms of sale.
