• The Weimaraner most likely came from Weimar, Germany.
• Trained at first for big-game hunting, it was later used as a bird dog and water retriever.
• Weimaraners make excellent watch dogs.
• The Weimaraner is a medium to large sized dog, between 22 and 27 inches high at the withers.
• Weimaraners usually weigh between 49 and 60 pounds.
• Their ears are set high and are relatively long; their tail is usually docked.
• Their coat is short and dense, and easy to groom.
• It can be roebuck, silvery grey, mousy-grey, and all intervening shades of grey. Occasionally there will be white patches on the chest and/or paws.
• A rare form of Weimaraner has a long-haired coat (and this type of dog does not get its tail docked).
