The Weimaraner

The Weimaraner was originally bred in the 19th century to hunt large game, such as boars, bears, and deer...oh my!
They are very active and require a significant amount of exercise. Although the Weimaraner is very stubborn, with patience they are very trainable.
This breed has a tendency towards separation anxiety. It is important to establish ground rules as a puppy. They love their owners and have been referred to as the "Velcro Dog", because they want to be attached to you at all times. The Weimaraner will definitely make you feel loved. :)

The Dachsund AKA Weiner Dog

The Dachsund was bred to hunt and flush out small animals, such as prairie dogs, badgers, and rabbits. The name Dachsund is German for " Badger Dog". Be prepared for them to dig!

The Dachsund is extremely stubborn and hard to train. But, they are super playful...and have the look that must have coined the phrase "puppy dog eyes"....so more than likely you wont stay frustrated too long :)

The Doberman

I decided that I would tell you some fun facts about the breed I paint every week. Does that sound fun?

So this week is the Doberman. Originally bred by tax collector, Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann for protection.
These dogs are fiercely loyal. They are known to be aggressive with strangers and passive with their owners and family. Great watchdogs!
