cen5 asked: Since our last dog died, we have been ‘um-ing and ah-ing’ over the idea of getting our dog a new friend, but after being let down by someone who was giving us another boxer (we were to pick it up on friday morning, they called at 11pm thursday night to cancel on us), we decided just to stick with the one dog.
But, the other day, a friend asked my mum if she would be interested in offering a year old vizsla a home. She had been sold as a family pet but had proved too much for the family and so was returned to the breeder (a friend of my mum’s friend). Apart form what they look like, we really don’t know much about the breed?
Any advice gratefully receivedd. Is it worth offering a year old dog a home (we have only ever had dogs from puppies), will it still be receptive to training?
We are used to active dogs, we have had boxers for the past fifteen years or so, and my brother shows, trains and handles weimaraners.
Also, my mum runs training classes so we have had plenty experience, but never starting training with an older dog, only starting young.

robynwiles asked: okay, so what can I do?
My hungarian vizsla wont let clip her nails, she knows what the nail clippers are and tries to run away from them. When we go to take her feet she pulls away.
Her nails are starting to get too long now and they really really need clipping.
Any Ideas?
thanks
if we do it when she is asleep we can get two nails done before she realises what is happening and she runs off again
