Coat Variations in the Weimaraner
Posted by admin in Facts About Weimaraners, Weimaraner puppy, Weimaraners on February 5th, 2012
When most people picture a Weimaraner, they picture a large, regal-looking dog with a short, gray coat. This gray is often a muted brown, giving the dog’s color an overall sepia tone, like an old photograph. However, there is another coat color for Weimaraners. This color is also gray, but is richer, darker, and has beautiful undertones of blue. Whereas the standard Weimaraner’s gray coat color is derivative of a brown coat, the Blue Weimaraner’s coat color is a muted black with no brown hues. Blue Weimaraners range from a slate gray to a dark gunmetal color. These dogs are quite beautiful, though somewhat rare.
Picking Your Weimaraner Puppy
Posted by John P Jackson in Facts About Weimaraners, Weimaraner puppy on February 4th, 2012
The decision to purchase or adopt a Weimaraner puppy is not one to be taken lightly! Weimaraners are notoriously athletic and extremely energetic. They are ideal for people who jog or run regularly, those who have large yards in which to play with and exercise their dogs, or nature-lovers who plan to hike, camp, and explore with their new pet. Weimaraners can keep up with their humans even if they have the most active lifestyle imaginable, but can become very bored and depressed if not properly exercised. Boredom and depression in dogs can lead to many behavioral issues, including aggression and other destructive behaviors. If you do not lead an active lifestyle or do not have plenty of time to devote to a new household companion, the Weimaraner breed is not for you.

Clicking With Your Dog: Step-By-Step in Pictures (Book Review)
Posted by Joy Cagil in Puppy books, Puppy training, Weimaraner puppy on January 22nd, 2012
“Clicking with Your Dog” is one of those books I wish was around when I had my dog. The training concept here is simple, easy, and scientific. It is easy because of the use of a small clicker that makes a unique sound when pressed. It is scientific, because this type of training is based on “operant conditioning,” a term coined by B.F. Skinner who was an experimental psychologist and a behaviorist.
Clicking is based on the reward system and the owner’s friendly and positive relationship with his dog. The book can be used as a manual and a trainer can pick up from anywhere in the book to teach any one trick, after getting the dog used to receiving a reward with each click.
Unlike the traditional correction-based training, the clicker training is based on common sense and respecting the dog’s needs and character. Step-by-step illustrations explain the clicking process very clearly, and people who can’t wait to start can begin immediately.
Whether you start with a dog that is still a puppy or a dog with already established behavior problems, the clicker training program gives fool-proof results, Read the rest of this entry »

However, it was a case of bullying that got me my first puppy. Yes, somehow my brother’s dog did not like his son and insisted on biting him and the little puppy was only 3 weeks old. Not wanting the poor puppy to grow up into a depressed and unhappy dog, he came under my care and that was how I had to start my search for puppies training tips as I did not want my parents to throw the puppy out for messing up our house!
