Meet the breeder

I'm Trudy H., the breeder behind Waymaker Vizslas located in Coal Center, PA. Waymaker Vizsla pups are bred for health, temperament and conformation. Our pedigrees show extensive titles in field trials, hunt tests, conformation titles & obedience titles. We are dedicated to providing our families a well rounded addition to their family for competition or just a velcro dog.

Q. & A. with Trudy

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My husband and I have been competing and breeding since 1994. My husband was raised with bird dogs owning several over the years. He introduced me to Vizslas and there is no going back. To find a breed that loves to compete in conformation, and then be able to hunt birds being "all in" finishing with a cuddle and loving you like you're the only person on earth is truly remarkable.
  • What makes your program special?

    At Waymaker, we strive to produce the best litter possible. We're always moving forward, never back. We evaluate a female that has passed all qualifications to produce a litter and then set out to find the perfect male. We pride ourselves on covering all the bases for a healthy, well rounded litter from parents with conformation, hunting and obedience titles.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are golden rust. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
