    Konza Vadasz Wirehaired Vizsla Kennel is located in the heartland of Central Kansas, 12 miles south of Salina, near the junction of I-70 and I-135. The name Konza Vadasz combines the Hungarian word for "hunter," vadasz, with the name early plains natives called themselves, Konza--people of the south wind. The name  of our state, Kansas, is a derivation of Konza, which is sometimes spelled "Kanza".

     Konza Vadasz Wirehaired Vizslas are bred to standard for temperament, health, ability and conformation. Our dogs are registered with NAVHDA (North American Versatile Hunting Dog Assoc.), AKC-FSS (Foundation Stock Service)  and UKC (United Kennel Club). We are proud members of NAVHDA International and we participate in the NAVHDA testing program. We are the co-founders and Charter members of the Wirehaired Vizsla Club of America.

akclogocrop.jpg  AKC Foundation Stock Service (FSS)

We are very excited to have Wirehaired Vizslas admitted to AKC's FSS registry and all of our dogs are registered in FSS . 
FSS is an important step for the development of our breed in this country, giving us many more opportunities for various activities all around the country and building the foundation of the breed for eventual recognition in AKC. Only with AKC recognition will we have reciprocity with registries in other countries and be able to work with breeders in Canada and overseas to build the worldwide gene pool of this breed.  
No matter where you live in the US, AKC activities are widely available in all 50 states. We became able to compete in AKC Companion and Performance Events (obedience, tracking, rally, agility and hunt tests) effective January 1, 2009.
The Wirehaired Vizsla Club of America collected 86 FSS registration applications with 3-generation pedigrees to submit in our first packet. Around the middle of last year, we were given the OK to collect another packet of registrations and again waive the registration fee! We will be submitting that packet in May so there's still time to get yours included! If you have a Wirehaired Vizsla and haven't gotten it registered in FSS yet, or have just gotten a puppy, now is your golden opportunity to do it for FREE. Follow the link below for more information on FSS registration and links to the application form.

Exciting NEWS from AKC!

At the February, 2010 AKC Board meeting, they voted to advance FSS breeds with 150-200 registered dogs (with complete 3-gen. pedigrees) and a breed standard to the Miscellaneous Class on request of the parent club.  The Wirehaired Vizsla Club of America has submitted a request to be included in the breeds advancing to Misc. next January. If we can reach 150 FSS registered dogs by June 1, 2010, we will advance to Misc. effective Jan. 1, 2011.  We're confident that we'll top that with the second packet we're collecting, since we already have 128 registered!

FSS Registration 

As a separate breed from the (smooth) Vizsla, it must be noted that crosses between a Wirehaired Vizsla and a smooth Vizsla result in crossbreed, unregisterable puppies! These puppies CANNOT BE REGISTERED by AKC-FSS, NAVHDA, UKC, ARBA or any other reputable registry and are considered to be a mixed breed.

No reputable breeder will tell you that such puppies are registerable. Ask to see the parents' official pedigrees; a reputable breeder will not hesitate to share these with you. Breeders in the WHVCA abide by the Code of Ethics, including health certifications and registrations.
