Not only Vizsla's. Do not buy ANY breed from the Amish. 😠 Go to a shelter if you like, or better yet, to a reputable breeder.

Please, do not buy a Vizsla from Greenfield, Lancaster, Keystone, or even the AKC website in this area. That ‘nice Amish family’ selling a puppy from their family pet is licensed to sell FIVE HUNDRED OR MORE puppies a year.

I post these warnings every year because some people are still buying rawhide. Please read.

Please just don't
Every year the rawhides come out and people who don't understand, buy them for their beloved dogs.
Just don't.

We strive to provide the best for our furry friends, but sometimes what seems like a harmless treat can hide potential dangers. There have been documented cases of dogs with pieces of rawhide lodged in their windpipe, stomach, or intestines, creating choking hazards and an intestinal blockage, gastrointestinal distress, such as vomiting or diarrhea, can occur if rawhide irritates the digestive tract . Since rawhide is a byproduct of leather, some items pose a significant challenge to a dog’s digestive system when it comes to breaking down.

During the manufacturing process, rawhide is often soaked in a cocktail of chemicals to preserve it and enhance its flavor. These chemicals can include formaldehyde or chromium salts, hydrogen peroxide and bleach, which may pose risks to adult dogs and young puppies alike.

Safer alternatives like completely digestible Himalayan yak chews, dehydrated sweet potato chews, or any of the all meat jerky treats would be much better than rawhide.
