TrackersNZNarrowed it Down to GWP or English Pointer, opted for the GWP as they can handle the cold better. Hopefully, I'll have a good alrounder to point Pheasants, Retreive Ducks, and track down wounded Deer. The mum is damn good hunter, doing all the above.

That little pup breaks my heart. Unfortunately I will be in the market for a new pup as my not very "old boy" will not be with me next hunting season. A tumour of the spine. Still very alert but has lost the use of his hind legs.

I will be looking for a new GSP. Maybe one day a nice GWP. How do GWP's handle the heat?

AussieMikeJohn,
Sorry to hear about your dog.
I had to have my GWP put down a month ago, age 14. He felt the heat but it didn't slow him down. He was the best hunter I have come across, he even pulled down largfe billies on his own. He was a great dog, the best, very gentle.
I have replaced him with a second viszla. My other viszla is less headstrong than the GWP and better for my type of hunting, which involves walking at heel on the stalk. Viszlas can be a bit cold sensitive.
Viszlas need to be "indoor dogs" in my opinion as they really get pleasure out of dog human interaction. There is a really good viszla dealer in Tassie.
regards,
mike

Not sure about the heat, but the reason I went for this breed is because they handle the cold.
