All Dog Breeds >>Health of Vizsla


The life expectancy of the Vizsla is 12–15 years. The Vizsla is considered to be a robust dog, but some localized breeding programs using a small number of dogs have led to heritable illnesses in some offspring, including: (a)Hip dysplasia is very rare but remotely possible. (b)Canine Epilepsy

Responsible breeders do not select dogs for breeding if they have such inherent problems. Vizslas can also be prone to skin and food allergies.
