Image: 3mth old weimaraner puppy
The picture of the 3mth old puppy and the note underneath it should have the word blue removed. This puppy looks like a regular silver/grey weimaraner, and not a blue one. If you search for blue weimaraners they are generally darker in colour. If its meant to refer to the colour of the pups eyes, it needs to be reworded.

The description of the picture of Grand Duke Karl August of Weimar should include the race of the dog.--95.91.183.13 (talk) 15:18, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

Not suitable as a companion dog?
I've shared my life with two Weimaraners.Although excellent gun dogs that need a lot of exercise, they are incredibly loyal family dogs. Excellent with children and outstanding companions... in Australia we call them valcro dogs, because they stick to their favourite humans. Do a bit more research and fix your article. 118.208.177.65 (talk) 11:49, 10 May 2024 (UTC)


 * The claim it isn't suitable as a companion dog is made by a German breed club, I can't read German but google translate says 'He is not a companion dog, but a hunting dog through and through. As such, he needs work in a practical hunting business to preserve his balanced being.” And one is consistent: the Weimaraner-Klub e.V. gives its puppies primarily to hunters.'
 * Based on my experience as well as evidence from studies I do not believe any type of working dog can be unsuitable for a companion dog, it may be too large for life in a tenement or something, but the idea that a dog can not behaviourally adapt to a household lifestyle based on it's genetics/breed is an outdated myth.
