Why Kenneth and Debra started breeding
As noted above, have always been a dream of mine of which I am now fulfilling. I spent 6-12 months researching the perfect dog that fit my lifestyle and my love of animals and found the Wirehaired Vizsla to be a perfect fit. I then search various breeders till I found one that matched my beliefs to obtain my first puppy. I have taken considerable time research and learning about dogs and breeding.
