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 have a pup!

To cut a long story short Milo is now nearly 2 years old and yes he is as mad as a box of frogs but he has a heart of gold. He is loving, obediant and a joy to own.

We take him hill walking with us and he loves his walks. Like the breed in general if he gets bored he can be destructive but not unduly so and he completely ignores other dogs.

He is very protective of the house barking if strangers come, but if we accept them, so does he and goes to them for some fuss.

A superb breed, loyal and caring and recommended based on my own experiences.

Summary: If you want a loving companion, love walking then this is a breed to consider
