But the lab could take it over 50lbs for sure. I've been around quite a few and they make great pets. I don't prefer them from a hunting standpoint but they are nice dogs for sure. Would be a shame though (IMO) to own a hunting dog and not take it hunting.QuoteWeight: 48.5 - 66 lbs.http://puppydogweb.com/caninebreeds/vizsla.htmThis website says you don't know crap.I've never seen a vizsla over 50 lbs and have been around a dozen or so. Most were 40 to 50 pounds with a few under 40. Some were litter mates, most weren't. Granted all were in good shape as hunting dogs. Americans generally let their dogs get pretty fat so I don't doubt the link. I jsut don't think a healthy vizsla should ever get to be more than 50lbs. That's two ribs showing. YMMV.

Had an awesome border collie /Australian shepherd mix. Ultra loyal and affectionate. Hated the vacuum cleaner.
My beagle hates the piano. My sister was practicing the first time we ever heard him bark. A certain pitch just sets him off into this howling/barking/singing thing.
My Border died just over two weeks ago he was 14. I got him from the shelter when he was 9 months old. Borders are the best. We also have a lab/Australian Shepard mix. She's ok.
My first dog, whippet, would sit on the porch the first wednesday of every month and howl along with the sirens. God, it was so cute/funny.
