... really needs to be borne in mind when deciding whether to have one. They are often clumsy, boisterous and notoriously difficult to train. We read many reviews that recommended not having a Weimaraner as your first dog, but we went ahead anyway! Our biggest training problems with Shane have been jumping up at people, especially visitors to the house when they first arrive, and walking to heel when on a lead instead of pulling. These are both really important because of the size and strength of the dog. You su...morePrice Comparison for Weimaraner

Our dog Shane is a 4 year old Weimaraner. When you buy a dog in a breed like this, if you didn't know all about the breed already, you soon will do because they are so distinctive. So many Weimaraners are so similar - of the many we have met they often share the same characteristics. First and foremost, Weimaraners are great looking dogs and this is what normally first attracts people to the breed - it was certainly the case for us. They are "grey" in colour (although in reality this is a light brown/grey shade) and have a really majestic look about them. They are built to run, with a deep chest which rises high to their muscled hind quarters. ... Read the complete review

Why a Weimaraner? Sometimes I wonder that when Lucy has dug herself into a rabbit hole and I have to drag her out by her back legs, avoiding her snapping teeth... Most people are struck by the beauty of these dogs. The silver ghost coat, their excellent conformation and intelligent yellow or blue eyes can be really striking. Oh, and, of course, a recent advertisement for vodka which had a singing weimaraner playing the piano. But these dogs aren't for the inexperienced! Although affectionate and friendly, Weimaraners are stubborn if they want to be, selectively deaf, can be fussy eaters, and - potentially a big problem - excellent vermin ... Read the complete review

The Grey Ghost, as the Weim is affectionally known. A truly beautiful looking dog that is a joy to behold. We had never owned a dog before and my wife fell for this breed as soon as she saw one. We contacted several breeders and expressed an interest and enquired about puppy availability. As has been stated we were told that it is not a suitable breed for a first time owner but after filling in several questionnaires sent by several breeders we were invited to visit a breeder in Harrogate who had a bitch expecting pups. To be honest she gave us real grilling asking loads of questions, before she told us that she thought us suitable to ... Read the complete review

We have owned our first dog and weim for almost 2 years and love him to bits. We did our research enormously for months to ensure he was the right dog for us but he is fantastic fun and a great addition to the family. Milo is a purebred dog with an amzing temperament, he is as soft as a brush, great with our 2 children and never barks at other dogs. He is gentla and will let the kids play with him for hours, he will let them do anything to him and we wouldnt be without him On the negative side, yes he is a big dog and needs a lot of exercise, he is very sociable and will follow you from room to room, he doesn't like being on his own as he ...
