I had a weimaraner. He was fabulous. Got on very well with my cat – in fact the cat was (mostly) in charge! Yes they need walking several times a day but they are worth every minute.

In reply to Gaynor Henry. We are now on our third Weimaraner. Our last 2 lived to 15 years old. We never considered any other breed. They are beautiful, smart, and great companions. Our new baby is just 12 weeks and he knows sit, stay is totally house trained and and we're working on leash training. Amazing dogs, not for everyone but perfect for us.

I had a beautiful Weimie for 10 years. I had to put him down due to illness and am still broken hearted. I miss my Pippett and keep his ashes with me. On a good note, three years later and my husband gifted me a beautiful new Weimie that I just completely adore. Hooper will be my new running partner. We are inseparable. Weimaraners are simply the most beautiful and loyal dogs bar none.

I have had Weimaraners since I was a kid. A total of 6 of them to date . All are unique in their own ways. All of them were good with children of all ages. Some of them were more stubborn and some were less. None of them were really aggressive, but a few were very protective of me and family. Currently have 1 we rescued, and contemplating getting another one. Had to put our last one down at 14 1/2 years old .

I purchased my first Weimaraner in 2006, mainly for pheasant hunting. We had many very successful hunts. He was easy to train to hunt, as he came from a hunting background. He was well behaved and followed commands to a T, as long as he got his exercise. Anyhow, thru the years
I’ve had total of 5 Weims. The present one is a senior (8 years old) that I rescued thru Great Lakes Weimaraner Rescue. I needed an older dog, as I’m older and slower now myself. He’s a lovable companion for me. We make a good pair. But the number one thing to know about this breed is EXERCISE. If that’s not your lifestyle, I’d advise a diffeeent breed.

While some of your comments are accurate, there seems to be a lot you’ve forgotten or just didn’t know. Our Weim’s, one now gone and one staring at me, both got along extremely well with other dogs and cats. One was raised until age 2, with a Chihuahua and the other was a solo dog until 4, when we adopted him. They are definitely Velcro dogs. Our current male does sleep with us and takes up literally half the bed. Once when we had been away our old male was so mad, he ate the bathroom doorframe and it had to be replaced. They have an incredible memory. They think with a reason and logic, that is better than many humans. They are sloppy drinkers and messy eaters. Most wonderful dogs, but needy and very much like a child.
