The Weimaraner is a dog that needs plenty of exercise and a place to run. Try to avoid running them after a meal as they may develop a life threatening bloat. This breed of dog will do better with three smaller meals a day rather then two or even one large meal. This is a very protective dog and can be a one person or one family dog. They may not be trusted with other pets due to their strong prey instinct. They may fight other canines. They need to be socialized with children and very young children are in danger of being knocked over but this athletic, highly active dog. They have a coat that is very pleasing to the touch. As a reminder, never leave a child unsupervised with a puppy or dog.
*Approximate Adult Size. The approximate adult size (two years old or older) of the male Weimaraner is 24 to 27 inches to the withers (highest point of the shoulder) and 55 to 70 pounds. The female ranges from 22 to 25 inches to the withers and 50 to 65 pounds.
*Special Health Considerations. Most dog breeds have certain inherited health problems associated with that specific breed and the Weimaraner is no exception. Be on the look out for bleeding disorders, gastric tension and Canine Hip Dysplasia (genetic based looseness in the hip joint that can lead to arthritis pain and lameness). This disease list is an informative guideline only. Other diseases may also be significant threats, please contact your veterinarian for a complete list.
She should visit the veterinarian several times in the first year for shots, boosters and check up. Then, as an adult, she should visit the veterinarian yearly for shots and check up. As she gets older, six years and on, she should visit the veterinarian twice a year for check ups and shots. Remember; avoid feeding your dog sweets.
*Grooming. The Weimaraner has an easy care sleek, short and smooth coat that feels like heaven to the touch. She should be brushed regularly and rubbed down with a chamois to make her coat shine. Brushing will help her maintain a clean and healthy coat, help you keep a closer eye on her health and strengthen your emotional bond with her.
Her teeth should be brushed at least twice a week with toothpaste and toothbrush designed for dogs. Brushing removes the accumulation of plaque and tartar which can cause cavities (rarely) and periodontal disease. Dog periodontal disease can lead to pain, loss of teeth, bad breath and other serious disease.
Her toenails may need to be examined for growth and clipped regularly. The toenails of the rear feet grow slower than the toenails of the front feet.
*Life Span. The Weimaraner can live between 10 and 12 years with proper nutrition, medical care and excellent living conditions.
*History. The Weimaraner comes from Germany where they were used to hunt big game. They were first registered by the American Kennel Association in 1943.

I live in Provo, Utah, and I can't seem to find a single puppy around my area. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

I think fostering a dog is free. A really good place to purchase or/and adopt a dog is from a breeder or an animal shelter. The average price essential for purchasing a dog ranges from $300-1000. And those bargains that are less than that aren't worth it because it is highly probable that the dog-mill bred and raised dog is deathly sick with various and numerous ailments and poorly house trained and/or people trained (optional). It's well known that dogs from pet mills, due to the dirty conditions and uncompassion in regards to the dogs wellbeing, that it is very sick with ailments which are often incurable but treatable with expensive heavy medication, which can tear a gap on your pocket. Don't be fooled by those pet shops because about 95% of all managers who maintain their pet shops purchase those apparently healthy cute and happy puppies from pet mills because they're so cheap! Disregarding animal rescue, your local dog shelter and breeder are the ones that truly care about where it is best suitable for their dogs to find that TLC. Usually they are very hesitant to allow you to adopt/ purchase a dog right away because you're a stranger to them. When you notice that fact and that they like to ask questions about your financial stability, job security, and other basic questions such as why do you want to get this particular breed? and why dogs in general? is your personality and lifestyle best suitable for your dogs needs…that's substantial evidence that they truly care about their dog. They ask those questions to make sure that although you promise to provide a loving home to the pet, you don't send it to the overpopulated animal shelter around the corner 2 weeks later. Some of them go to even extreme measures to force you to sign a contract, mandating that you must provide your dog with a loving home until so and so and if you are facing finanical instability, you should resort to returning the pet to the breeder rather than negotiating to have it settle in an animal shelter. Not all breeders do that but look for other obtruse signs that confirm their compassion for dogs. Of course, this is the IDEAL breeder! Not every breeder may fit this criteria. Check to see if the breeder is a member of pet owner organizations, such as the American Kennel Club or something similar and make sure it is valid. But if you can't seem to resist that bargain, make certain that retrieve documents about the dog's medical history and if they have received all of their vaccinations up to date. Prove that they are valid by a veterinarian. If the bargain benefactor refuses to present those papers, that's a sign that the dog potentially is sickly with numerous and various ailments. Learn more information that I possibly may have overlooked from an animal shelter, veterinarian and staff and the dog owner community. And via the Internet, I heard that http://www.petfinder.com/ is very resourceful in finding healthy dogs of all types of breeds. One more thing, the biggest scam that imminent dog owners encounter is when they purchase a dog across the shore. Although those papers may be valid, on numerous occasions, you may never retrieve the dog. Or if you do, they manipulate you by deliberately granting you custody to the wrong dog, a mixed breed, or a look-alike. And don't be fooled. Even breeders are money-hungry self-centered tricksters! I would trust animal shelters more. For more information, get advice from animal rescue, a veterinarian and staff, dog owners, and animal shelters.

Hi Me and my family are looking at a Weimaraner puppy tomorrow. What is a good hip score for it also is there any other questions I should ask the breeder?

You won’t know the puppy’s hip score specifically. The puppy has to be older before that kind of testing is done. But the parents should have been health tested. You want to make sure the hips and elbows are OFA certified. But if you’re going to a good breeder, there should be many, many health tests run on their dogs. And all of them should have been passed.

I need to find one by october 22, please contact me if you have information and answer please.
And not to rush anyone, it just sounded that way, and its because its my daughters birthday.
and she is very responsible and wants a weim.

Why by Oct 22?

Good luck with that. Good breeders usually have them sold by the time they are ready to go.

However, here are some suggestions on how to find a breeder in your area:

We are getting a blue male weimaraner puppy soon.
I was thinking of the name Rigel (rye-jel) which is a blue star in the constellation orion. I thought it was a great name since it is a blue start and orion is a great hunter, however my wife does not like it.

Our other weim is named axel, not after axel rose it is just a good german name.

any other ideas?

I think Rigel is a great name! It has meaning and it is different.
