Description: Super cute modern taxidermy example of a Weimaraner puppy. (Specimen obtained from a veterinary college)
Early Weimaraners were used by royalty for hunting large game such as boar, bear, and deer. Like the Vizsla at the time, the breed was created exclusively for the nobility. The aim was to create a noble-looking, reliable gun dog. With its restricted ownership and natural instinct, the breed was highly prized and lived with the family. This was unusual since during this period hunting dogs were kept in kennels in packs.
