Do any of you keep your Vizsla's outside in a kennel?
I will be getting a Vizsla pup in Sept / Oct and am toying with the idea of building an insulated and heated kennel with a large run on the end so he can stretch his legs a little when I am not at home. He is going to be a working dog and I know other breads that live out side and work tend to be tougher than ones that live inside. Can the Vizsla handle living outside as they are generally clingy? He will still be allowed in the house at times during the day and i am not just going to leave him outside and forget about him but it will give me peace of mind when i am out that he can go to the toilet without doing it in the house. Also what age would you suggest is best to put him outside at? or is just better to start from day 1?
Thanks in advance for any replies and help.
