Weimaraner Dogs: The Weimaraner History

The Weimaraner dog, or "Silver Ghost", is a centuries old and athletic breed originating from Germany in Europe. The Weimaraner was originally bred to meet the needs of the 19th-century German forester. Beginning with a houndlike fur mammal hunting strain, tracking breed that was aggressive toward predators, the Germans added the skill of bird-hunting and retrieving needed by the professional forester.

Weimaraner Dog - The Weimaraner Breed

Weimaraners are pointers and retrievers that have been used in various capacities such as hunting, tracking, police work and search and rescue.

The Weimaraner is a versatile breed that is friendly, alert, and loving. The Weimaraner is quite a large, muscular dog yet very graceful and elegant. It fits very well into a family environment and is a wonderful companion which prefers to live inside with the owner. They love attention and to be spoilt at every opportunity.

A Weimaraner requires an owner who has a firm, no-nonsense approach and you will need to take some time to train and socialize him. A Weimaraner has endless energy and when well trained he is a confident and assertive dog.

The Weimaraner breed gets along well with other dogs but typically not as well with cats. Due to their physical size and strength care should be taken if they live with very young children or the elderly as they could knock them down; however a Weimanarer is an affectionate dog who enjoys company and will be a valued member of a family with children. They're loving, fiercely devoted companions - quick to learn and eager to please!

Female Weimaraners are usually between 23 and 25 inches tall at the shoulder and weigh between 55 and 70 pounds.

Males are larger at 25 to 27 inches at the shoulder and 65 to 85 pounds.

Weimaraner Breed Standard: According to the official breed standard, the Weimaraner is "a medium-sized grey dog, with fine aristocratic features.

The temperament should be friendly, fearless, alert and obedient."

In long-haired variety, coat from 2.5-5 cms (1-2 ins) long on body, somewhat longer on neck, chest and belly. Tail and back of limbs, feathered. Although the Weimaraner has a very short coat, it does shed although it is much less visible than the long haired breed.
