Over time I have been sent lovely emails, letters, cards and Christmas presents for the dogs. I want to thank you all who keep in correspondence. It makes breeding so worth while, knowing that we have brought such joy to your family. Breeding is a family affair and our dogs are part of the family, knowing that they are in your family so cared for and well looked after brings me such happiness. Some of our best friends are people who have brought dogs off us, or who have used our stud dog as well as the show world. Here are some lovely comments of references that some of you have sent. I have tons more on cards, but I cant simply post everything. But I thank you as this is helpful to so many new people looking for a breeder, unsure about contacting them. They read this and then make contact. So thank you peeps! xx
I am also happy to provide phone numbers or emails with my owners consent for you to ring or talk too if you are unsure about buying a baby from us. So its not just words on an internet page. But only with permission as I have to take data protection into account.
Please note that your confidentiality is protected with us. I have had many people in jobs which are high profile who come to us and we do not disclose who they are. Some in the public eye, others in jobs where they have to have identity protected. Rest assured everyone is treated the same way, and this is why I had to stop having a facebook group also. With new laws that came in on breeding, we are not allowed to give advice. But I can give "Friendly advice". Even though professionally Im qualified more than most breeders around. Rest assured I do my best to help you as much as I can do with in the guidance.
VIZSLA 2020 Thankyou Rachel for breeding such wonderful dogs for us to enjoy. Completely in Love Kelly Wrycroft (Tango x Gucci boy 2019) **********************************************************
VIZSLA PUPPY 2020. Ive not had one problem with him, because he always has been stimulated. He loves work and playing with all other dogs, and loves his walks, we have a chuck it but I dont play with the ball much because he will beg and beg for it. He carries one everywhere. Ive done a lot of training using a ball as a reward. He is just amazing! I can not thank you enough! he's so perfect Charlie Jerome ( Tango x Sassy puppy 2019) ...................................................................

We love him to bits! Jane Lightfoot ********************************************* When my partner and I decided on the Vizsla as the breed we wanted we began our search to find a reputable and responsible breeder. Then we found Rachel. She has been fantastic and has a whole wealth of knowledge about the breed. Rachel kept in regular contact with us by sending weekly photos and text updates. In just the several times we met Rachel we felt like we had known her for years and just from her knowledge and experience she was able to read us like a book as potential owners and picked us the perfect puppy. Woody is now 13 weeks old, such a bundle of energy on one hand and so chilled out on the other. So loving and affectionate and above all he is so gorgeous! So thank you Rachel for breeding such a lovely, intelligent and wonderful breed and for being supportive throughout the whole process which has been outstanding.
Annie, Leanne and Woody xx ******************************************** Pickle says "Hi"! Hope you're all well. Pickle is on top form and as perfect and wonderful as ever, bringing us so much joy every day. xx Alison French

Andrew Walsh ******************************************** Archie has brought us a ridiculous amount of happiness, love and laughter Madeline Verchere ******************************************* Thank you for breeding such a wonderful character.

You have been so lovely when I have sent you a whats app message in a panic when she was growing up, that I wanted to say thank you for being helpful. Simone Anderson *************************************** I don't know any other breeder who would go to the lengths you do Rachel to support your new owners. You have been totally invaluable to us over recent days with our drama! You have advised and calmed me when I was close to full panic! I would of been lost with out you. Much love to you from Bosco. Lindsay Coleman ***************************************
I looked online for a puppy, and then rang a few breeders who were rude, only wanted money and when could I take the puppy and I wanted someone that was in my mind the ideal breeder. I wanted advice, someone who would answer my many questions. Apologys that I have taken up many hours of your free time to help me. Glad I found you was an understatement, and you put so much time into your puppies it is obvious. Thankyou for everything Rach. Georgie Owens ***************************************
I could write you an essay on how happy myself and my partner are with our little monkey Jasper, he is simply perfect for us!! Never ceases to amaze me just how right you were in choosing him for us! And we are constantly stopped by people telling us how fantastic and handsome he is! We are very proud to say hes a Silvestre! Thank you and sloppy Smooches from Jasper (Who unsurprisingly still likes a good snog!) Rosie Aphale ****************************************
Rachel, hope all is well with you. Just wanted to drop you a note to say how happy we are with Stanley. You couldn't have picked a better dog for us.He has fitted in brilliantly with our family, has a wonderful temperament and is extremley biddable and a pleasure to train and play with. He's seems to be thriving with us, is incredibly settled and secure and is very much loved by us all. Thankyou. Mark Rollins ****************************************
We searched very carefully for the right breeder for our first dog and first Vizsla, travelling a six hour round trip to view, then collect her from Silvestre Gundogs. Rachel checked we had researched the breed thoroughly and could offer a suitable family home, then matched a perfect puppy to us. She is passionate about her dogs, breeds and socialises them with care and continues to pass on a wealth of information to us as our puppy is one years old. Be it diet, health, exercise or routines, she is always available to advise. It has been wonderful to keep in touch with our puppies siblings via the Facebook group. We have been gingered through and through! In fact, another tripe to Norfolk may be on the cards next year.... Saffron Redmond ***************************************
I highly recommend Silvestre as a breeder of Hungarian Vizsla having had a puppy from Rachel. In my opinion she is very passionate about the breed and has invested a huge amount of her time and money into her very selective breeding programme, ensuring that the characteristics and qualities of this beautiful breed are maintained to the highest standards. This has resulted in healthy dogs being produced that not only conform to the breed standard but have the temperament and personality to match, ensuring a wonderful all round family pet who comes with a lifetime of personal telephone support. It is evident how much her dogs are loved and treated as family members and they are all credit to her and her husband Darryl. My own dog was chosen as first and foremost a pet but also I wanted to show him - he has proved himself many times over in the show ring winning multiple first places at championship shows and also first at Crufts. He is also an integral part of my family. If I was asked if I would consider purchasing another dog from Silvestre - it would be a definite YES!! Lin Gibbons ( Owner of Ruger " Silvestre Blazing saddles) **************************************
Silvestre Is there ANY other? :-) I even get other Vizsla owners saying how beautiful she is !! Joe and Wendy ****************************************
I did not realise just how much a dog could take over our whole lives for the better. Thank you Rachel for choosing us the perfect dog. From the moment we met you we knew we had come to the right place. A home which cares so greatly for their dogs, immaculate conditions, and wealth of information. I did not feel the need for the group as you Whats Ap straight back which suits us fine. You have been such a great help, thank you once again. Andy ***************************************
He is the best pup with such great personality and character . He never shuts up talking to you in his own way lol. Thankyou again for letting us have him. Cheryl Sanderson ****************************************
Rachel has done us proud! I have a lovely Weimaraner girl by a Silvestre boy. I wanted a Vizsla for seven years. I contacted Silvestre and now I have the beautiful Eider. I'm pleased to say my girls are beautiful, healthy, lovely natured Kelly Packman *****************************************
I just wanted to say thanks for choosing a suitable puppy for us. He is calm and gentle natured dog. We have a nice time together. We have put in a lot of training and he responds well. Hootan *****************************************
I am a very proud mamma Rachel. He is beautiful, and well tempered happy and loving Bertie. We love him to bits. Thankyou for breeding him Rachel. Sarah Sherlock ******************************************
Oscar is single handedly the greatest thing that has happened to me, he brightens my mood every day and I could not imagine life without him. Not only is he gorgeous on the outside, he is beautiful on the inside too., with a temperament second to none. I spent a long tIme researching different breeders but as soon as I spoke to Rachel I knew I would be in safe hands having a puppy from her. It was fantastic experience to meet both mum and dad of my boy and through out my journeyRachel has offered guidance and support either directly or through the invaluable Facebook groups that she runs.i can not thank Darryl and Rachel enough Olivia Burton *********************************************
The most caring considerate breeder I have ever known. She comes highly recommended. Cheryl Sutherland **********************************************
Our boy has changed our lives. Oozy is happy and confident and well mannered. He is intelligent and affectionate. Thank you Rachel for not just breeding our Gorgeous boy but for ongoing support and advice you have given us. Which as first time dog owners has been priceless. Would happily recommend you as a breeder for anyone seriously looking to add a vizsla to their family. Sasha Langford *********************************************
We just can't imagine life with out her. Rachel took time to make sure we really understood the breed we were taking on. Allowing us to meet her and adult dogs before choosing the perfect puppy for us. Since bringing Dusty home, Rachel has continued support with us and all her years of experience. Dusty is now mature, well socialised. Even our trainer who calls the bred"wind your arm up", is pleasantly surprised by just how obedient our girl is (though she has her moments). Lisa Jennings ********************************************
He is more human than dog. He is simply perfect to us. I did a lot of research finding the right breeder and it's paid off, in fact if we could manage another Vizsla we wouldn't consider anywhere else but another dog from Rachel. So many people have complimented Chester when out walking with him, we're so proud of him and would r commend Silvestre name for the quality of their dogs and level of ongoing support from Rachel. David Price *******************************************
I was a complete canine novice owner when I met Rachel Savage. In fact I had never owned a dog before. My wife has had several dogs in the past, and decided she wanted a Hungarian Vizsla, and was drawn to Silvestre gundogs. We found them via the Kennel club website. By the professional and no nonsense approach of what to expect from the breed and a wealth of information what to expect in a Vizsla puppy. She has proven to be 100% accurate. Rachel offered us a bitch and we went to see puppies at five weeks of age.we collected Biba at seven weeks which proved best age. The group website is both good and fun and members are prepared to share their experiences at all stages of the breeds life which helps a lot. You feel that you are not on your own. Testament that many owners have more than one Silvestre dog. I would thoroughly recommend a Silvestre dog to anyone. Ged and Caroline ***********************************************
100% happy cooper is an energetic happy ginger whom loves nothing more than running with his friends through the forest chasing rabbits, cuddling like a baby, with our family. Oh and he looked pleased with himself rolling in fox shite like other gingers for the first time in months! Love him to bits Karen Combes ***********************************************
Pepper is a sweetheart, so good with out children. She complimented our family, we went back for another. Pepper is competed agility circuit and does working/field trials. Jo Dennison ************************************************
If you are looking for a Vizsla you have found the right website. Your search is over! They are highly intelligent breed, beautiful, loving, protective. Comical, fairly vocal. We can not speak highly enough about our breeder Rachel who totally dedicated to her dogs, is a phone call away or blog away if advice needed. There's no doubt she produces the best example of the breed. Just so you know they will steal your hearts! Beckie and Jon ************************************************
Keith and I would like to say a big thank you for giving us our little boy blue. He is a beautiful Vizsla. We were impressed with your website, the updates we got about mum, and the updates when our baby was born. I must admit we had reservations that you chose the puppy for us, but their was no need. You know your dogs so well you chose us a brilliant puppy. Keith and Zena ************************************************
Hi Rachel just wanted to say thank you for everything you have done for us from the beginning, when our pup was just a dream in Scarlett's tummy, to having a pup of our own. After doing lots of research on buying we were fortunate to come across your website. So informative and by far more professional. This was the start of us meeting you and your lovely dogs. We fell in love with mum as she is beautiful and fantastic dog. I also love the way you keep in touch and we are able to share our thoughts, concerns and questions.Kind regards Amoreena white ************************************
