    Hi Seoirse,

    I have just bred a beautiful litter of Weim's and they will be ready to go to new homes at the end of Feb. The ad will be on donedeal.ie this week.
    They will be 4wks tomorrow and are thriving. I have started to wean and potty train them to make things easier for their new parents.
    They come from Champ bloodlines and will have the following:
    • Tails docked
    • IKC reg
    • Micro chipped
    • Wormed and Vac
    • Both parents are our pets and can be seen (their Daddy is very good with them!)
    • All documentation and advise,
    • Blanket and wubba
    I would recommend that you read up on this breed before buying and I would welcome a call if you are really interested @ 0879030935.

    Regards,

    Andrea.

    More About Weimaraners - Good & Bad
    GOOD POINTS
    1.they do shed.
    2 THEY ARE ALSO NOTORIOUS FOR BEING RECREATIONAL BARKERS.
    3. (They can be too rambunctious for small children.)
    4.They are excellent companions for jogging or long walks. THIS BREED MUST HAVE A LOT OF EXERCISE. THEY ARE, AFTER ALL, BRED FOR HUNTING. (LONG TIME AGO)
    5.They are very curious and always in the way,THEy must be indoor pets;
    6. long-lived breed of dog. The average life span is 10 to 12 years. so you are stuck with the gob****e
    7.They are very playful and will create games to play with you, being a fecking nucience all of the time
    8.They are very sensitive to your moods and want to be touching you whenever possible. Do you realy need another wife
    9.SOME are good hunting dogs. (VERY FEW)
    10.Most like to retrieve and carry things.(EXCEPT GAME IN HEAVY COVER)

    BAD POINTS
    1.They can be very destructive if not trained and supervised and many are chewers until they reach maturity.(WHICH IS NEVER) Some will always chew.
    2.They will eat anything - pantyhose, lava rocks, sofas, pillows, woodwork, wallboard, hot tub covers, etc.
    3.They can be difficult to housebreak.
    4.As a result of the above three traits, a crate (wire or plastic) is a MUST with this breed. If you can't stand to crate a dog, please don't buy a Weimaraner.
    5.They can be STUBBORN and HARD-HEADED and are smart enough to be manipulative. They will try to get away with anything possible.
    6.They can and are aggressive with other dogs.
    7.They are usually too strong and active for elderly owners.or small kids
    8.They must have consistent discipline and obedience training at an early age. Without it, the dog and owner will be miserable. you will be training it till the day you die
    9.This dog must NEVER be allowed off-leash in an unfenced area. They are very untrustworthy and will chase the first animal they see, often with disastrous results.
    10.See GOOD POINTS #2, #4, and #8.
    11.They are prone to having allergy problems and hip dysplasia.
    12.They were developed to hunt anything with fur or feathers and they often will kill small animals.

    ive never heard such a complete load of absolute bull **** in all my life!!!!!! i hunt with them and find them brilliant, great nose and when properally trained very obediant. dont blame the dog for the above "points" but have a look at the said owners. everytime ive sold a pup to new owners for hunting theyve always come back saying how good they are.......infact i can remember one of the owners winning 1st of season comp over a 6 month dog we bred...........and there were plenty of the so called better breeds out that day. tell you what......have a chat with people who actually have used them for hunting and the vast majority will confirm everything ive said.
    as for not being welcome anywhere with them; wheres that?????????? ive never had a problem. infact everytime i bring them out they get nothing but compliments.
    the only thing from the above that is true is the fact that they are sensitive to your mood but not overally so.............i personally think it shows the dogs intelligence but if you prefer something different out of your dogs fair play to you
    for the op; go for it!!!! cant recomend them enough. done deal is the place to look and i would contact the weimaraner club aswell, they should know of pups that are either born or due

    A potty trained dog now that is a good one, does that mean when he's out in the field and needs to take a dump you have to drive him back home to sit on the throne or would you bring the potty with you. :D:D:D PMSL

    After a lot of research and talking to a lot of people I decided to go with a gsp. Sorry Wellsummer I know ye love the labs but I was assured that a well trained gsp would be very welcome on shoot days. Got an 8 week old bitch from great hunting lines today. I'm sure with the right training she'll give chloe a run for her money :p Thanks to all for advice

    well seoirse i suppose the deal id done now and at least it a couple of steps up the ladder from the weirmarner.

    >well trained gsp would be very welcome on shoot days.

    ANY WELL TRAINED DOG IS WELCOME ON SHOOT DAY, FORTUNALLY YOUR DOG WONT BE RUNNING OF TO THE NEXT DRIVE AS YOU WILL BE ALL THE TIME LOOKING FOR HER , STUCK ON POINT IN THE WOODS SOME WHERE.

    I HAVE BEATEN AND PICKED UP ON A LOT OF SHOOTS AND HAVE ONLY EVER SEEN A GWP ON SHOOT AND HE DID NOT LAST.

    The problem with all of the hunt point and retrive is that they are a jack of all trades but excell in none.

    when buying a dog you have to focus 100% on what excally you want the dog to do and also the terrain that you are hunting.

    I am looking forward to in time to come hearing those little words, YOU WERE RIGHT WELSUMMER.

    At least they are more intelligent that the weirmaraner and you wont wear out so many pairs of boots running after her.

    AFTER all that...... enjoy you pup
    What did you call her.
    Long time ago my father had a gsp names froue
    Also have fond memories of another gsp called rommel

    what crap, a well trained HPR is the best dog a man can have .

    one of my GWP bitches is 10 this year she has stalked 100s of deer, pointed and retrieved 100s of pheasants .stalked and retrieved countless rabbits.
    retrieved pigeon,duck,snipe,woodcock.

    the problem with them is there often brighter that there handler


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 186 ✭✭seoirse1980


    Thats the nicest thing you've ever said to me wellsummer I'm nearly in tears here:D.

    Her name is ella 8 weeks at the minute.

    Hopefully with all your advice to hand she'll turn out alright....

    If anyone knows of a good place for dummy launchers let me know please

    Sour grapes much & what a load of ****e. The dog will only be allowed get away with what the handler allows! If he's not obedient he shouldn't be in the field regardless of what breed it is!
    I think some of the HPR men on here would take serious offence to the comment "they are a jack of all trades but excell in none."

    PS If it is a beating dog you were after for shoot days a springer or cocker was the way to go...

    welsummer,

    I can't make hardly any sense out of this post, but from what I can make out you are talking out your BUTTOCKS!!! :D

    HPRs are perfectly capable of picking up on shoots, they're no good for beating. Its all down to training.

    Their fine for picking up when you can see your dog.
    Try standing outside a heavy wood that the birds from the previous drive have flow into and send you dog in after a runner.
    9 times out of ten you are going to be waiting awile for her to come out. and if she is sticky on point you are going to have to go in looking for her.
    Mean while the next drive has started!!!
    WRONG DOG FOR THE JOB.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 442 ✭✭doyle61


    the op never said what type of shooting he was doing. he asked if anyone knew where he could get a weimaraner not if one was better than a cocker or springer. if he was asking if anyone knew where there was a litter of pointers would you have slated them? is it the weimaraner you have a problem with or is it all HPR's. by the way the op asked specifically about the weimaraner, he implyed to me anyway, that he knew the trates about the breed and where best to hunt them so personally i think its a bit insulting on him aswell the way you said that xy&z is wrong with the breed when it was obvious he was after a HPR and knows what hes getting into.
    just to clear something up aswell; im not a HPR nut that would say its noting but a HPR that ill hunt with. as ive said earlier, i hunt with the weimaraner and ill always have one, i love everything about them, but i also have a cocker that i hunt with. different dogs with different traits and i think your comments were very unfair about one of them.
    ps to the op, nice pup hope you get many good years shooting out of it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 395 ✭✭welsummer


    i hunt with the weimaraner but i also have a cocker that i hunt with. different dogs with different traits [/QUOTE]

    how can you hunt with both dogs on the same ground with such different traits


    they will give each other bad habits,
    the cocker will be watching the weimaraner as he is a far ranging dog and should be finding the birds first , the cocker then gets cute and when he see the weimaraner on point at a distance, he runs on the point.
    The weimaraner then gets cute and when he see the cocker coming , he comes off point and flushes the bird before the cocker can.

    I was looking for a dog to cover all of my growing shooting needs. As I researched the different breeds one or two stood out. I also had to consider my fiance's allergy to dander in fur, so long hair was out of the question. I wanted the dog to be indoors some of the time as a family pet in years to come. I wanted a breed that I could take with me out stalking. Flush and retrieve on walk up days. (might point me to a nice grouse this year:D) use when duck flighting and hopefully geese this year. I would be also using the dog for picking up and beating occasionaly.
    The german shorthaired pointer came recomended by many. I'd love a springer and a lab in years to come but not now.

    Thanks again to all.

    Your mad!
    He said nothing about hunting the cocker with the HPR. I think your only trying to wind things up.

    i never said that i hunted the dogs at the same time. as i said different dogs different traits so i choose which one suits me for that given day......who knows sometimes i bring the two of them along and alternate them:eek::eek::eek:
    from the above quote are you suggesting that a HPR cannot hunt the same type of ground as a spanial and vice versa?????? now thats a strange one to me..........in our club theres any number of different breeds form red setters, pointers, GSP,springers, labs, cocker (olny me) and god forbid weimaraner (again only me:eek:). tell you what though; for the two less established breeds in my club they'ld give the rest a dam good run for their money;)

    My mates springer shat in my dog trailer .......... I will have to look in to having a potty installed, of course she will have to be potty trained aswell.

    If she is your mate, she might be a bit old now to start her potty training? And I always thought these Cork wans were well developed!:D:D:D
