flynndog 543 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Anyone have experience working Weimaraner's ? Thinking of getting one in next coming months and use it to work alongside gun and falcons... Question is are there any reputable breeders of working type rather than kc reg and crufts nuts Quote Link to post

mackay 3,330 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 The weimaraner is now a poor imitation of what it once was, here in the uk anyway. I had four of them years ago from working lines, all hunted, all held and backed a point, all retrieved (land and water). They were all a bit tetchy with other dogs and took little provocation to fight. Good guards and would protect you. I'd think you would be doing well to source one now with all the above qualities without going abroad. Biggest downside with them I think is their coat (or lack of it). 1 Quote Link to post
