"Teak" is a versatile Vizsla who is titled in Show, Agility and Hunting and has an impressive pedigree.  "Teak" has been a very successful show dog and won Best of Breed at Westminster Kennel Club in February 2017!  In 2016, "Teak" was the #3 Vizsla in Breed points and #5 All Breed. He is also a handful of Vizslas who have earned their Silver Grand Championship. Teak has seven (7) Best in Specialty Show (BISS) wins.

"Teak" is a moderate male Vizsla with a lovely front assembly and return of upper arm and is clean moving coming and going. He is biddable and has a nice easy going temperament who lives with his intact son, "Tanner" CH Comynara Tanner Is The Silver Lining Ride JH NAVHDA NA Prize 1. I have met the two of them together and they are adorable.

 Multiple Best of Breeds 
Finished Grand Championship with FIVE Majors 
Junior Hunter at 10 1/2 months – Owner Handled/Trained
2x's Best Puppy in Sweepstakes Winner

---

Zene completed her AKC Conformation Championship with a 4 Point Major; earning the majority of her points from the Bred-By-Exhibitor class. The day after finishing her title, she took back-to-back Best of Breed wins for two 5 Point Grand Champion Majors - and she made the cut both days in the Sporting Group.  In short order she finished her Grand Championship with FIVE majors!

As a baby puppy, she won back-to-back Best Puppy in Sweepstakes from the 6-9 month puppy class. Zene has also dabbled in Obedience and she has one Beginner Novice (BN) Leg, and earned her Novice Rally Obedience with little effort. Prior to those she easily earned Canine Good Citizen title. Her passion, though, is BIRDS! She is birdy can be and has a tremendous prey drive (loves rabbits and lizards when birds aren't around).  At 10.5 months old and owner/handled and trained she earned her Junior Hunter title, and she could easily get advanced Hunt Titles given the time and training to do so.

Besides her good looks and biddability, Zene has a wonderful temperament, with an up for anything attitude. She is a joy to live with and loves sitting upright in my lap (on her back) and being held. She is my first home grown girl and I could not be happier with her.

As a Dam, she has produced multiple AKC Champions with several others Major pointed. She's successfully passed on her good looks and temperament to her progeny (and her good health). She is a natural brood bitch and an amazing mother. I am so proud of her!

Zene's pedigree reflects holds a proven strength in conformation and versatility:

"Rocky"

Her Sire "Rocky" (GCH Can CH Captivatin' Ain't He A Knockow't ROM) finished his AKC Championship at 7 1/2 months old with 5 Majors in only 8 shows. Before age 18 months, Rocky was awarded several Best of Breed wins and earned multiple Sporting Group Placements — all owner handled! With relative ease, Rocky finished his AKC Grand Championship (owner handled) in August 2010. He has also been a formidable producer earning his Registry of Merit (ROM) from the VCA - with only four litters. He has seven (7) Champions and other titled progeny across multiple venues. In both 2011 and 2012, Zene's Grand-Sire, “Owe’n” (MBISS GCH Tivoliz CC Joint Venture, JH ROM), earned recognition as the #1 Top Producing Sire, and as of 6/2013, he has nineteen (19) AKC Champion offspring.

Her Dam "Csilla" (CH Tamaron Okos Piros Csillag, CD RN JH CGC ROM) is a proven producer earning a Registry of Merit (ROM) from the VCA in 2014. Her progeny include a Specialty Show Winner (BISS), (5) Champions and two (2) Grand Champions (two more are Major Pointed), seven (7) Junior Hunters, and (2) Rally Novice (RN) titleholders; along with Multiple Best of Breed, Group Placing, Award of Merit, and Multiple BBE Group Placements. Csilla has consistently passed her faultless temperament and good looks to her offspring. She hails from a successful litter with siblings earning Multiple Best in Specialty Show wins, and a Best in Show.





And then there were NONE!

Baby Gigi (Purple Girl) stayed at Moonlight Vizslas and became "Emery" and she's exceeded my expectations in every way ....
