Weimaraner
"Grey Ghost" of dogs — striking silver coat and serious working drive.
The Weimaraner was developed in 19th-century Germany by the noblemen of Weimar as an all-purpose gun dog. The distinctive silver-grey coat earned them "Grey Ghost" — once exclusive to the Weimar court. Modern Weimars are devoted family dogs but require an active, experienced home.
