About the Breed
A Weimaraner is not just a beautiful dog.
At first glance, you may notice its elegant appearance, silver coat, and noble posture. However, we believe it is important to explain what lies beneath this beautiful exterior.
The Weimaraner is intelligent, sensitive, spirited, and deeply attached to its person. It needs to be part of the family, it needs contact, purpose, and a person who is willing to communicate and work together with it.
This is not a breed that will be happy with just a short walk around the block. 🐾
Like any pointing breed, the Weimaraner was bred for movement and shared activities. They can be wonderful companions for hiking, running, trekking, retrieving, tracking, and especially for hunting work. At the same time, they also need to learn how to switch off, relax, and settle into everyday family life.
A person should not be interested only in its appearance. They should also be interested in its energy, sensitivity, strong-willed nature, and its need to be close to you. They should also understand all the work and commitment that sharing your life with a Weimaraner requires.
A Weimaraner must be guided with respect while also being given the space to develop its abilities. It is neither a decoration nor a tool. It is an individual personality and a partner for many years to come.
What You Need to Know
It is a dog that will test you. Mentally. Sometimes physically, too. And on a personal level.
Ak príde ten moment, kedy naozaj pochopíte jeho zmýšľanie, povahu a zraniteľnosť, vytvorí sa medzi Vami spojenie, ktoré sa nedá opísať slovami.
Je to láska na celý život.

LIFE and LIVING TOGETHER
Áno. Weimar potrebuje pohyb. Pod pohybom si ale nepredstavujme záhradu, alebo krátku vychádzku na vodítku. Potrebuje najmä zamestnať hlavu, kedy sa unaví nie len fyzicky, pretože zvládne veľa. Ale psychicky. Potrebuje robiť veci, na ktoré je stavaný.
If you give your Weimaraner these opportunities, it becomes an irreplaceable companion, both outdoors and at home.
And once its needs are met, it is perfectly capable of relaxing and enjoying quality rest — ideally in the company of its person, but also on its own, in its own place where it feels safe and secure.
It still depends on the individualities. Dorotka, for example, can happily sleep and relax at home all day without demanding attention or activity.
But if she is outside, her temperament and energy are in mode ON.
