Weimaraner
The Weimaraner, a gun dog breed developed in the early 19th century in Germany, was favored by royalty for its stunning looks, athleticism, and intelligence. Once used to hunt big-game like wolves, bears, and mountain lions, they now excel in various dog sports. However, being highly energetic and intelligent, the Weimaraner needs proper training to learn how to be calm and control its high prey drive. In addition, this dog breed is very people-oriented and might develop severe separation anxiety if its needs are not met. But, overall, the Weimaraners make great, loyal, and obedient pets for active owners.
