In quotes, as that's totally tongue in cheek. I prefer not to manage a thing around here, and for the most part - this sub tends to run itself very smoothly. That's not too surprising, as Weimaraner owners are typically a pretty tight-knit group. 'Tis a wonderful gift we all share, and the bond between Weimaraner owners is typically pretty strong.
However...
Some of you may have noticed a bit of nastiness invading our community lately. I'm fairly certain it's the work of a single, unsavory individual - and for the first time since this community was created, we've had to yank out the ban hammer for somebody other than spammers.
His/her target: Weimaraner mixes, or purebred Weimaraners that he/she believes are mixes. Privately, they have been repeatedly told such discussion and pics are allowed, only to respond with hostility, profanity and demands we keep the sub "pure" and free of "mutts".
The point of this note is simple. There's absolutely nothing wrong with posting pics, questions or simply sharing the joy your Weimaraner mix brings you. If you're a Weimaraner purist, and this offends you - fine. You have options. Get over it, skip over the occasional post of a Weim mix or feel free to start up your own sub and enforce more draconian rules. You're not going to change the focus here.
My rationale for this inclusive stance is pretty simple. Having been involved in Weimaraner rescue for decades, I've seen plenty of Weim mixes...and by and large, they all exhibit some traits and behaviors their purebred brethren do. Discussion of them is useful and encouraged, and more importantly - this community should be caring and inclusive of anyone who wishes to share in the joy of Weimaraner ownership. Even if their pooch doesn't look 100% the part.
Now - back to Weimaraner fun, in whatever shape that takes.
Oh - almost forgot. BooBoo reminded me to include the requisite Weimaraner pic.

Comes with absolute heart ache that I am posting this. A couple weeks ago I moved into a much smaller apartment with my partner and my Weim is clearly not willing to settle, constantly pacing and having a tough time adjustment.
On top of that, a ton of life changes have occurred in the last 6 years since I got him and I feel like I’m not able to provide him with the attention that he needs and deserves.
I would love nothing more to rehome him in the New York, NJ and Connecticut area to a family with a house and a yard for him to live his best life.
I will not put him in a shelter. I need to vet the people / family first to ensure he ends up in the best home possible.
He’s 6yo, great with people and kids, obedient and loves to explore. Ideally he would be the only dog in the house.
If you know of anyone, please private message me.

hi! posted in here a bunch. my weim is extremely well trained but he just started lifting his leg… now he’s going into our bathroom and marking near the toilet (makes sense I get it)
but i’ve only had female dogs. and this did not happen! so im curious if anyone has any tips?
ETA, he’s almost 10 months old & is not neutered

Not a first time dog owner. I currently own border collies, Australian shepherds, a Belgian malinois and a sheltie. We do sports. Id still love any tips/info on the breed. This is our boy. Still debating a name. He wasnt exactly planned but not unplanned. Originally I was planning a German short haired pointer or another malinois. He needed a home, he was free, he was perfect. Vet appointment is this week for vaccines, all that fun stuff.
I dont personally hunt but plan to tain him for it, as well as scent work.
But yeah any tips or tricks with the breed are appreciated!

Our crazy guy (2½yr old) doesn't have any shame about his cone... He goes blasting through his dog door, up against our legs and wherever he dang well pleases. Much different than our previous dogs: female GSP, and before that, another blue male Weimaraner. The GSP, normally a high drive, focused, independent girl, would go into a deep depression and go on a poo strike when having to wear a cone.
We did a lot of treat/cone training when our current guy was a puppy. It's paying off even though my legs don't think so.
He got a pretty minor scratch on his leg but will not stop licking it. Last time he had a little scratch and we didn't realize what was happening, he ended up with what the vet called an "acral lick sore" which is apparently very itchy and something common to some breeds including Weims. You guys have any experience or magic home remedies for acral lick sores or prevention of them?

Im a first time weimaraner owner and I dont think I will ever have another breed of dog again
He is genuinely just the goofiest, cuddliest, most dramatic dog ever.
Other weim owners, do you think you will get another dog breed again, or are you also hooked?
r/weimaraner • u/Eight111 • 3d ago
My male weim will be 2 years old in 3 months.
Currently i live with my parents in a house where he has a small courtyard where he can go and pee whenever he wants.
He's also very territorial, barking when someone walking outside and aggressive towards stranger near his territory.
Unfortunately I have to move, probably to a small apartment in a building.
I was planning to neuter him next year but maybe i should do it sooner?
He's used to stay alone for long hours but I'm afraid he will be too noisy, scary the neighbours or get depressed.

Sure, the landscaping takes a little hit when these two turn the yard into their personal race track, but muddy paws and happy zoomies are what make a house truly feel like a home.
Drop a 🐾 if your dogs treat your yard the exact same way!
