All Dog Breeds >>Appearance of Weimaraner
The Weimaraner is elegant and athletic in appearance. All parts of the dog should be in balance with each other, creating a form that is pleasing to the eye. It must be capable of working in the field, regardless of whether it is from show stock or hunting stock, and faults that will interfere with working ability are heavily penalized. Traditionally, the tail is docked to a third of its natural length shortly after birth. This is part of the AKC breed standard. However, these alterations have since been illegalized in several other countries; as such those dogs are shown with their natural tails (which is uncommon). The eyes of the Weimaraner may be light amber, grey, or blue-grey.
Weimaraner Training
The Weimaraner is very intelligent and easy to train. He learns new commands very fast.
Weimaraner Shedding
The Weimaraner sheds a fair amount of hair. You'll find hair stuck to your couch, carpets, clothes and everything else in your home.
Weimaraner Grooming
The short coat of the Weimaraner only requires an occasional brushing. But because he sheds you may find yourself brushing him once or twice a week to remove loose hair. (What you get out with a brush doesn't fall out in your home!)
