Care
The first thing to know about him Weimaraner is that it is a domestic dog. Not made for the kennel or backyard life, and it's not made for apartment living either. This highly active dog needs a large, safe yard where he can run, and an active family that gives you the exercise and mental stimulation you need.
A sense of humor also helps, especially when you see how you Weimaraner ha remodelado tu jardín en sus esfuerzos por deshacerse de ratones, moles and bugs. Estará orgulloso de sí mismo por sus buenos esfuerzos, así que no olvides elogiarlo mientras calculas en tu cabeza cuánto tiempo, dinero y esfuerzo requerirá poner el jardín de nuevo como te gusta. You may want to monitor him more closely and provide him with additional exercise..
The Weimaraner they need a couple of hours of daily exercise if they want to avoid barking, recreational chewing and digging. Play fetch and other running games, take him for a jog or a walk, enséñele a correr junto a su bicicleta o involúcrelo en un deporte para perros como el agility o el flyball.

The Weimaraner they are very intelligent, and they are also independent thinkers. Esa combinación puede hacer que sean un desafío cuando se trata de entrenar. Be consistent and firm, but soft.

Keep training sessions short and interesting, y siempre termínelas cuando haya hecho algo bien para poder elogiarlo por un trabajo bien hecho. Last, but not less important, keep your sense of humor. Its Weimaraner may or may not do what I ask, depending on many factors, but will always disobey with style.
Grooming
One Weimaraner it is one of the easiest breeds to care for. Even when he's been running through the mud, dirt seems to fall off it. Weekly brushing with a bristle brush should keep their fur and skin healthy. The Weimaraner they shed their fur, but brushing will help keep hair loose from your clothes and furniture. For your Weimaraner glasses, límpielo con una gamuza. Bathe when necessary. Likes to wallow in anything stinky, así que puede ser más a menudo de lo que normalmente sería necesario.
Todas las razas con orejas colgantes tienden a tener problemas de infecciones de oído.

Brush your teeth Weimaraner at least two to three times a week to remove tartar buildup and the bacteria that lurk inside. El cepillado diario es aún mejor si quiere prevenir las enfermedades de las encías y el mal aliento.
Trim the nails once or twice a month if your dog doesn't wear them down naturally. Si puede oír el chasquido de las uñas en el suelo, they are too long. Short, well-trimmed nails keep the paws in good condition and prevent scratching when the Weimaraner jumps enthusiastically to greet him.
Start getting used to your Weimaraner to have it brushed and examined when it's a puppy. Handle your feet frequently – dogs are sensitive to their feet – y mire dentro de su boca y sus oídos. Make grooming a positive experience full of praise and rewards, and will lay the groundwork to facilitate veterinary examinations and other manipulations as an adult.
While you clean him, check for sores, rashes or signs of infection such as redness, tenderness or inflammation of the skin, en los oídos, nose, mouth and eyes, and on the feet. Eyes must be clear, no redness or discharge. Your careful weekly exam will help you detect possible health problems early.
