Arizona Rio Salado Vizsla Club History

The Rio Salado Vizsla Club is a non-profit organization that operates under the rules and regulations set forth by the American Kennel Club.

Rio Salado Vizsla Club (RSVC) was founded in the early 1970’s by a small group of Vizsla Fanciers. In those days Vizslas were few and far between. We managed to attract about 35 members. The Club has continued to grow as the Vizsla breed has become more well known. Today we have more than 100 memberships.

RSVC has hosted the Vizsla Club of America National Events three times – 1980, 1986, and 2002. Each year we regularly hold four Hunting Tests and two Specialties and Obedience Trials. We also hold several Versatility Tests and Canine Good Citizen Tests each year.

Our members are very involved in training their Vizslas for show, obedience, and field. We have a fantastic training support system where our more experienced members help out the newcomers. Our members’ dogs are very successful in all three areas – confirming that Vizslas are truly a versatile breed.
