Hi, I have a quick question on flees... I give my cocker brewers yeast tablets daily as an holistic precaution against flees, so far so good, he seems to have built up a good immunity. As Vizies have such a thin coat, are flees a problem? Jenson is now 14 weeks, should I start to build up his resistance, he goes to puppy classes and socialises with many pups in the area. Should I start to build u his flee resistance too?

Fleas can be very bit a problem with Vizsla's. They're easier to spot than if they were on a cocker, but they can also hide fairly well.
V's tend to have a little more sensitive skin than most hunting breeds, so the fleas can cause rashes and reactions.
If the brewers yeast is working for you, I'd give it a whirl.
