Dog breeds
Weimaraner

The Weimaraner originated in the early 19th century in Germany, where it
was conscientiously developed and bred to maintain its physical and mental
characteristics, and jealously guarded. The ideal dog was one that
possessed courage, speed, intelligence and a well-developed scenting
ability. The breed was originally used for big game, but was later adapted
to and trained as a bird dog; and were found to be good pointers and
retrievers.

The Weimaraner is a medium-sized grey dog with fine, aristocratic features.
The breed presents an overall picture of grace, speed, stamina, alertness
and balance. The dog's conformation, structure and musculature must always
indicate the ability to work with great speed and endurance. The breed has
a friendly, fearless, alert and obedient temperament.

Serious faults: Doggy bitches. Bitchy dogs. Improper muscular condition.
The breed has a reputation for Doggy bitches and Bitchy dogs!
Improper muscular condition can also be a problem - so plenty of regular
exercise - together with a good diet must be adopted.
