Preston - Atlanta, GA
http://www.atlantalovesweims.org/rescues.htm

Preston is a handsome blue male
Weimaraner that came to us from a N. Georgia shelter where he was picked up
as a stray. He is approximately one year old and has a lot of energy (a
typical Weim). He gets along well with other dogs, but probably would not be
suited for a home with cats. Because of his high energy, Preston probably
would not be well suited for a home with small children, either. Preston
needs to learn some manners, but appears to be house broken and does well in
a crate. He is neutered and is up-to-date on his shots. We are still getting
to know Preston and will post updates soon. Atlanta Weimaraner Club Rescue

Friends for Pets Foundation - Southern California
Abigaile - Sun
Valley, California (Southern CA)
http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=3686949

Abigail
was released by owner due to lifestyle changes. She's a pretty blue. With
access to a dog door, she is reliably housetrained. She prefers to be the
only pet in the family. She does not do well with multi-hours alone. She
thrives on human contact, is responsive, and affectionate. Abigail has
severe reactions to vaccines (and apples); we do have a veterinarian's
letter stating that she must NOT receive vaccines. (She almost died once - )
While many Weims have severe reactions to multiple vaccines, it generally
requires emergency care before a vet will state in writing that a particular
dog must never again receive a vaccine. (We advocate with dogs who have not
yet shown vaccine-reaction illness, the separation by 3 weeks of killed
Parvo, Distemper, Rabies.)

Bronco is a stunning 18
month blue male. His path to us was convoluted. Bronco originally came from
a Utah shelter with the involvement of an out-of -state Weim Rescue. He's
now released to our care - and we find him exceptional. Bronco is
personable, affectionate, self-assured. This boy is a prize. He prefers all
the attention in his family - thus, we're suggesting no children.

Reno
- Sun Valley, California (Southern CA)
http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=8222752&mtf=1

Reno's photos, taken as
his dad was signing his release forms, show clearly the confusion each dog
experiences when brought in. ( It's a much more joyous situation when the
dogs leave for their new homes.) Reno is quiet, exceptionally well-behaved,
housetrained and crate-trained. Reno does not trust men, however. His
records show that he was sent at a year old to a training school; when he
returned, he had difficulty walking; the vet diagnosed a spinal injury.
Please, people, for varying reasons - never send your dog away to a training
school.

4.5 yr old
neutered male...was left to run on a farm (never had a collar on until he
was given to the shelter in WI)...has some resource guarding issues with
food not surprising as he was seriously underweight when he arrived and sick
with kennel cough. He is still very rough with his coat being dry and
bleached. He is slowly starting to warm up to us, but he prefers dog company
to human right now. Very good in his crate. For more information

7
year old neutered male - avaerage height, slighter build, very lean
structure. Nice dog was the victim of a divorce and was turned into a
shelter with a GSP by the owner. Well cared for, gets along with other dogs
okay but prefers to be by himself or with people. Great in his crate and is
housebroken. Would be fine with cats, kids and other dogs. He is not real
interested in children, but doesn't seem to mind them either. Would be
wonderful for an elderly person as he is very gentle and leash walks well.
Hello my friends, my name is Luke. I am a blue male
Weimaraner. I am 7 years young and am looking forward to starting a fresh
new life with a new family. I get along well with other k-9's, but most of
all I love humans. I came into rescue from a shelter. I was quite thin when
my friends from Great Lakes Weimaraner Rescue picked me up, but little by
little I am putting on weight and getting back to what I should be.
Anyway, no sense dwellin' on the past, I am ready to start new, maybe with
you? Sincerely,
LUKE

Greetings
everyone, my name is Major. I am a handsome 4 year old blue Weimaraner.
There are lots interesting things to know about me, because I march to a
different drummer. I will need a family that enjoys a fun k-9. I enjoy
looking up at things, if you have something in the closet on the top shelf,
I will see it. And I will not forget that stuffed animal is there or that
funny shaped what-cha-ma-call-it is on the top of the refrigerator. If a
flicker of light from a flashlight comes along I will chase it. If there is
no place left on the coach to sit, I will sit on the back or the arm of the
coach. I love to snuggle at night and would love to sleep with you. I do not
like to be crated, too confining for me because I need to be able to look
around and investigate. I do like other k-9's but get my feelings hurt
quickly if another k-9 doesn't understand my inquisitiveness and puts me in
my place. I will cry like a baby, because even though I am 4 I feel much
more like a puppy. I am an interesting fella, no doubt about it. And
wouldn't the world be boring if we all were alike? Well off I go I see
something on the ceiling.

Nugen's Blog
http://www.greatlakesweimrescue.com/available-weimaraners.htm#nugen

Hi I am Nugen, an 8 year old blue male.
Don't let my age fool you, I have lots of energy to play. I am neutered
and crate-trained and am currently being fostered in Wisconsin. I came into
the rescue because my family moved to Africa and it was too far for me to
travel.
My foster mom and dad
love having me around though. I am a very mellow and easy-going guy.
I LOVE to play fetch and Frisbee and will be your best friend if you can
throw the ball for me. I get along with other dogs just great, but I'm not
so sure about those cats. I would prefer a home without them. I am very well
mannered in the house and stay off of the furniture and sleep on a dog bed
at night. I even ride in the car nicely. I also listen so well outside,
that I'm allowed off my leash occasionally.
I am a little shy around
new people, but am getting better since my foster home has lots of new
people to meet. My foster mom thinks that I would be fine around children. I
do have some allergies and have been Lyme Disease positive in the past but
don't show any symptoms.
I'm looking forward to
finding a new fur-ever home! With Love, Nugen

Heartland
Weimaraner Rescue

Scorch - Kansas City
DONATIONS NEEDED TO HELP WITH SURGERY
http://www.heartlandweimrescue.org/

Permission given to cross post
by all.__._
Originally posted 12/7/08:
Scorch is a beautiful 3 - 4 month old blue weimaraner puppy who was dumped
at a kill shelter when the breeder found he couldn't find a buyer for a
puppy with a broken leg! The shelter was kind enough to contact us for help.
With little information on the possibilities of how the injury occurred, we
have heard everything from possible birth defect, to a later injury that the
breeder didn’t want to admit to. Heartland agreed to take Scorch in and do
right by this baby. You can see from the photo, the damage starts a the
shoulder, then down to the knee, and from the knee down down, the leg is
healing sideways. Scorch is being fostered in the Kansas City Metro area
by our Director Gail, who said the photo of his knee doesn’t begin to show
the damage, swelling, and disturbing appearance of his leg.
He is scheduled to see
Dr. Becker (our vet who did Charlie and Parker's surgery) Monday, December
9th, and surgery is scheduled for Tuesday. Knowing orthopedic surgeries are
the most expensive to have done, but at only 3-4 months old, Scorch deserves
a chance to have it fixed right. Due to the usual before the holidays
"Weimaraner dump" on HWR, our bank account is running very low and we are
not able to afford the surgery for Scorch's leg. Usually we simply ask the
Weimaraner World for help, this time we are begging. We all remember the
miracles Dr. Becker did for Charlie and Parker; please help us make a
Christmas Miracle happen for Scorch by donating money to his medical fund.
No amount is too small, they all add up! You can donate through PayPal by
UserName – heartlandweimrescue@kc.rr.com, or you can send a check
made payable to Heartland Weim Rescue and send it to: HWR - 7805 Lee Drive -
Pleasant Valley MO 64068. All donations are Tax Deductible. All the
volunteers with Heartland Weimaraner Rescue Thank You All for your generous
support!
Update 12/8/08:
Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far to Scorch’s medical
fund! He will see Dr. Becker this afternoon, and I will let you all know
what the Good Doc has to say. Keep your fingers, and toes crossed for good
news!
Scorch doesn’t seem to
be in pain, although I don’t know how, unless he has gotten used to it.
There is no heat in the joints, which bothers me, I am fearing that the
bones have healed which will make Dr. Becker’s job even harder, and more
involved. I am not going to dwell on it, it is what it is and we will do
whatever Dr Becker feels is best for him. It times like this that I am
happy Dr Becker loves a challenge! He did very well here yesterday
afternoon, he wanted to play with the other foster pups here, but I was
scared to let him do too much. So I held him and allowed the other pups to
smell each other with very limited interaction. He ate a good dinner, but
between the transport, excitement, and being in a new place, he was tired.
I was surprised he fell asleep after dinner and slept all evening, then
through the night without a sound.
He had alone time out of
his kennel yesterday so I could watch his movements. I told you all
yesterday that the stories ranged from birth defect to obvious broken leg.
I can’t see it being a birth defect. The muscles are the same size in both
front legs (although he does show signs of atrophy) and the bones are the
same length. He doesn’t walk on it of course, but he does try to use it
like he has had the use in the past (make sense?) He tries to dig, and move
toys around with it. When he walks it sweeps under his chest like he is
trying to hold it up and get it out of the way.
Scorch is a snuggler,
and kisser. He is loving life indoors, and the cushion of soft blankets.
He watches television, and cocks his head to the side at commercials, we
shouldn’t laugh….we do it too!
I am off to work, Scorch
will spend the day with Brian. I am taking a couple hours off this afternoon
to take him to Dr Becker. Thank you again everyone!! Have a GREAT day. Gail
- Heartland Weimaraner Rescue
Update 12/8/08: Late this afternoon we took Scorch
in to see Dr. Becker. He verified that Scorch is only 14 weeks old, and
after x-raying his leg, stated, “There is no way this was a birth defect,
this injury was caused by some type of abuse, by kicking or hitting the leg
with something.” The leg was broken above the knee, and also shows signs of
crushing to parts of the knee itself. This is not a fresh injury, Dr Becker
said that due to all the scar tissue, and calcification he would not be able
to determine the full impact of the injury until he did surgery. He
indicated that there would be hours of chipping and breaking away of
calcification to determine if the leg can even be saved.
We had to leave a brave little Scorch with Dr. Becker for the night, he is
scheduled for surgery first thing in the morning. First, let me say, that
Dr. Becker is not one for shortcuts. He enjoys a challenge, and the thought
of hours of surgery doesn’t bother him at all. If there is any way the leg
can be saved and Scorch have any reasonable use of it, it will happen. Then
the hours of re-hab will begin. Worse case scenario, nothing can be done and
his leg will be amputated, this is not something we discussed at any length
at all, as he and I both feel the same about amputation – we don’t like it.
He is concerned about growth plate damage, and making sure the knee will
glide smoothly within itself. The best thing we have going for us is that he
is only 14 weeks old. Bones are still growing, and with all our prayers this
evening and morning, Scorch will come through this like Charlie and Parker
and his Christmas Miracle will happen.
As for the breeder, the shelter is being notified so that an investigation
can be initiated into the abuse of Scorch, and any other weimaraners this
breeder has in his possession.
I will post the results of his surgery tomorrow as soon as I can, in the
meantime, please remember Scorch in your prayers.
Again, all the volunteers with Heartland Weimaraner Rescue wish to thank
everyone for their donations (and the special toy I hear is on the way for
Scorch – to keep him occupied in his crate while he is re-cooping) Your
donations have all been set aside to pay for his surgery and re-hab. Once we
have the full story from surgery, it’s cost and an estimate for re-hab we
will post it and if the amount has been reached we will ask that the
donations stop, but at this point we are organizing other fund raisers to be
held to help us raise the money needed.
Take Care, Gail & Volunteers of Heartland Weimaraner Rescue
Update 12/9/08: Scorch had
surgery this afternoon….he still has a four legs! Before we all get too
excited, the next 36 hours are critical until Dr Becker is able to see how
much nerve damage has been done – hopefully not to the point where we are
forced to discuss amputation again. We will know Thursday afternoon, so
keep those prayers coming.
For the most part,
surgery went well, several hours of it, but well. Once inside Dr Becker
determined the bones were not damaged as bad as he had feared. Again,
cleaning up the joint from scar tissue and calcification etc was the time
breaker.
With Scorch’s miracle
just within reach, Dr. Becker feels if the nerves are not too badly damaged
he hopes that Scorch would have 75% use of the leg – that’s a far cry from
the O% use he had yesterday!
From the beginning the
ARL in Waterloo IA has been wonderful to work with. When we were first
contacted by the ARL, they told us of how the breeder brought Scorch and his
mother to the shelter. The breeder said mom had trouble whelping and ended
up having a c-section, and suffered a broken pelvis as a result of the
trouble, the breeders vet cared for the broken pelvis. They were told
Scorch’s leg was a “birth defect.” and that he was 5 ½ months old. The ARL
was suspicious of the story and when they contacted us for help relayed the
story and suspicions. “Gracie” (Scorch’s mother) was walking fine, so all
efforts were concentrated on getting Scorch the surgery he needed.
While arrangements were
now being made to pull Gracie, the ARL noticed with the cold Gracie was
beginning to show signs of pain and lameness in the rear. They took her to
their vet who x-rated her and they were told that indeed Gracie had suffered
a broken pelvis, but NOT from whelping, but due to a severe blow to the
pelvis. The vet further added that it was obvious that Gracie has NOT
received medical attention for the break.
For now the vet has her
on pain meds as needed, and feels she will need surgery in the future.
We are going to ask Dr.
Becker to call the vet in Waterloo and discuss the injury with him, but it
looks like Gracie will need to have surgery also, and share a re-hab room
with Scorch.
I hope this breeder
doesn’t have any more weimaraners. Will let you all know tomorrow how
Scorch did overnight, and any news on Gracie.
Thanks for all the
prayers and donations…..with Gracie next in line, they are needed more today
than yesterday. –Gail Heartland Weimaraner Rescue
Update 12/13/08:
Dr. Becker did the evaluation
on Scorch and...SCORCH RECEIVED HIS CHRISTMAS MIRACLE! His paw faces the
front of his body and his has feeling from his shoulder to his toes!!
He comes home to me for
foster Monday afternoon. He will get a soft cast Monday morning, and it will
need to set up before he can leave. His movement will be very restricted, so
he will be crated, and Brian will have to carry him out to potty.
He is through the worst
of it now, and will begin physical therapy to learn to use that lag again as
soon as Dr. Becker releases him.
I will get pictures of
his homecoming on Monday and post them.
Scorch's mother is next.
Her surgery will be more painful, they will have to re-break her pelvis,
clean it up and set it. We now have her foster in KC set so we are
finalizing the plans to get her to KC and have her surgery done.
Thanks again for all the
donations...every single donation counts, and with the economy the way it
is, we appreciate your donations even more. - Take Care, Gail,
Heartland Weimaraner Rescue
Update 12/15/08:
Scorch came home today! What a great puppy!! His tail and tongue wouldn’t
stop when he saw us! His leg looks beautiful! While there is still a huge
amount of swelling to the knee, Dr. Becker showed us how it now BENDS! He
has about 20 staples, and a drainage tube that will remain for at least a
week. He is confined to the crate, but he is taking it very well. Shhh, I
did let him out long enough today to take a nap on a chair while I did some
paperwork watching him.
He returns to his buddy
Dr. Becker a week from today for a check up. Dr. Becker is hoping that with
physical therapy that he will actually regain 80% of what it should be.
Like any severe injury, arthritis will be a concern for the future, but that
is many years down the road. It will be at least two to three more weeks
before he can start the physical therapy. We are going to contact Sherry
(Charlie and Parkers therapist) and she if she can fit us into her
schedule. She is a busy lady now, so I better call her this week.
Here are a couple
pictures that I took of Scorch today. Considering the surgery he just went
through, I think he looks gorgeous
! 
Update
12/26/08: Scorch
Sorry that I am late in posting the updates, between wrapping gifts at
Borders for Heartland to raise donations, working with Scorch (will explain
below), and family holiday obligations, I ran out of time!
Scorch – Was seen by Dr. Becker on Dec 22nd. His drainage tube was removed,
but the staples will remain for one more week. They will be removed Monday
the 29th during his next check up.
Dr. Becker was able to manipulate the knee, 50% range!! The time has come to
start working with Scorch several times a day, first we use warm moist heat
for 10 minutes, then work the knee for about 5 minutes, then a moist cold
pack for 10 minutes – all this takes about 30 minutes and has to be done 4
times a day to get and keep the knee moving. We are hoping he can start
physical therapy in another couple weeks.
He is a wonderful puppy, very sweet and gentle. I know he is in more pain,
as he whimpered last night with his last knee workout. I wish we could give
him pain meds, but Dr Becker fears he will try and do too much if he is pain
free and all this will be for nothing. So we abide by Dr Becker’s orders,
and snuggle with him lovingly every chance we can, so he doesn’t think the
only time we touch him is to hurt him.
Gracie
I wish I could tell you her surgery was done and over with, but I can’t. She
also went to Dr. Becker’s office on Dec 22nd. We left her there so Dr Becker
could do x-rays and surgery that afternoon. When we called that afternoon to
check on her, Dr Becker said he had not done the surgery, and wasn’t sure he
was going to be able to. He wanted to think about it overnight and would
discuss it with us the next morning.
I called on the 23rd, and he was still not sure. He explained that the way
the pelvis was broken, and healed, it has pushed the femoral ball up and was
pushing into her bowel. While she is not having constipation issues now, he
felt that she could in the future and should have something done, but he
also said when the surgery needed to be done was in the area of her sciatic
nerve, and while he felt he could miss it, he doesn’t want to make matters
worse. He was calling a colleague and I was to call him again later that
afternoon.
When I called him, he said he had sent the x-rays to Children’s Mercy
Hospital for evaluation with a colleague. He still feels something needs to
be done, it’s more a matter of which way will be the best to accomplish it,
if they can do anything at all. He continues to say he didn’t want to make
matters worse for Gracie. I was to call him again the morning of the 24th.
I called that morning and he said that several doctors at the hospital were
looking the x-rays over and he didn’t have an answer for us yet. We
discussed his travel plans for the holidays (he would be gone from the 27th
to Jan 3rd) We agreed that to rush surgery that day, and his leaving town,
would not be of benefit to Gracie. While she is uncomfortable, she is not in
severe pain, it would be best to wait for his return and for him to be able
to consult with the other doctors. At this point Dr Becker maintains that if
this was a human, something would be done, and this is what he is trying to
accomplish. Our biggest problem is that the pelvis has healed and trauma to
it again might make her gait and issues down the road years from now worsen.
He did say that had she received medical treatment when it happened that
they could have inserted a finger (sorry for the graphic on that one) into
her rectum and pushed the femoral ball back into place and she would have
been so much better off than she is now.
We admire and respect Dr Becker for everything he has done for the weims in
the past, (He has saved four legs that other vets wanted to amputate) I am
concerned about Gracie and what is going to happen. Gracie’s foster mom –
Megan – said she is doing very well at her home, and is getting along great
with the other dogs there. She is on vacation and is taking the time to show
Gracie what love from a human is all about.
We will continue our efforts to raise money for Gracie’s surgery, and re-hab,
she is just as sweet and gentle as Scorch – it’s easy to see where Scorch
got his temperament. There were a couple of people who stated that after the
1st of the year they would put in for their workplace company grants for
Scorch, and Gracie. Thank you very much.
We will be organizing an on line raffle with wonderful items to share with
you, and hope to have it posted by Sunday evening. If you have anything you
would like to donate, please contact me private at heartlandweimrescue@kc.rr.com.
I will let you all know how Scorch’s visit with Dr Wingert goes on Monday,
and how Gracie is doing at Megan’s.
Thanks to Everyone – please keep Gracie and her “doctor’s” in your prayers
that they will determine the best surgery possible to help her.

Louisville Weimaraner Rescue


Oh, hello there. My name is
Heidi. I’m new to the area and oh so happy to be here.
It was a long ride from my old home, if you want to call it that. I spent
the last few years of my life in a puppy mill, producing many litters of
beautiful little Weimaraner puppies. Of course, they were all taken away,
and I’m sure they are in great homes, providing their families with love,
protection, and companionship. Me, I’m just happy to be alive. The
mill I was living in was closing down, and the humans that owned me were
going to shoot me, since I was no longer of any use to them. Thankfully a
wonderful lady saved me and two of my Weimaraner friends. I am now on
vacation at my foster home, which I share with two other Weimaraners (they
are the plain ol’ silver type). I am approximately 5 years old, but my
years have been long and hard, and they have taken their toll on my body,
so I’m not as crazy as most Weims. I arrived in Ohio with a lot of health
issues, but thanks to a great lady in a white coat, I am feeling much
better, and hope to make a full recovery soon. I am good around most any
creature I have met, even my new neighbor, a Jack Russell Terrier named
Scooter! I am interested in chasing bunnies, so I may not do well with
cats. I do fine with children, but their loud noises and quick movements
can be scary sometimes. Since I have never really been free before, I
still need help learning what it is to be a pet. A family with grown kids
and other dogs would be ideal for me. I have mastered walking on a leash,
I get to walk two blocks every morning and evening, and although sometimes
I howl a bit, I really don’t mind my crate too much. I do have a bit of
a wild side sometimes, but its pretty tame and shorted lived, especially
compared to my foster sisters.
I hope you will check out my blog –
http://heidiweimaraner.blogspot.com – it will
tell you all about my time here on vacation, and how my health is
progressing. I am a very sweet girl and I am ready to find my own family
to love, protect, and spend the rest of my life with. I am being fostered
in Bowling Green OH. added 9/29/08

Max - Denver, CO

08/07/08
- Max
is a 3 year old male weim. He has been in boarding in Utah for several weeks
waiting on a rescue group that never came. He needs a foster home ASAP (his
transport to Denver has already been arranged). Update Hi I am Max!. My foster family describes me as
very affectionate and friendly. I even know a few commands and say I am
willing to learn more for you. I am very good on a leash and love to go for
walks but I do get distracted by things when I walk. I would definitely
benefit from an obedience class. I do have a lot of energy so I tend to like
the older kids better since they can play with me a little more than the
little ones. I am not particularly fixated on toys per say but I do enjoy a
good nylabone. I don't do well with fences that are not secure or under 6
foot as I am a very agile climber and I do mean "climber". I am great around
other dogs and I am not a proficient barker at this point. I like my crate
that my foster family has for me and I enjoy getting out with them and going
for car rides. I look forward in seeing you at the meet and greet sometime.

Hi ..I am a 9 1/2 year old purebred blue weimaraner (neutered male) who
lives in Denver. My parents just had a baby a little over three months ago
and I'm not adjusting well to the new addition. I am not used to little
kids, have always lived with other dogs, but would prefer to have the
undivided attention of my owners. I may be in my golden years, but I have no
health problems and hardly any grey hair. I also love to go for long
walks/runs and lounging on the couch in my free time. If you think you might
have a good place for me would you please contact the rescue. Thanks.

Siggy - Denver, CO

11/11/08 - Siggy is a beautiful 1 1/2
year old male Weimaraner. He is a lot of fun to be around and is a sweet
weim to be with. Siggy is your typical high energy weim. He loves to be out
playing for hours on end. He needs an active family that wants to have a
weim to go hiking with or running or any other focused activity. He would
just love to be part of a family that he could call his own. His former
family had a kid that was allergic to dogs... so yes he does fine with kids
that love to play with him, especially the older ones. He does like to play
fetch when the mood suits him. He could use some leash training classes..
though with any dog you get that should be part of the regiment to better
help you and your dog understand one another. Siggy is currently in boarding
and would love a place to call home even temporarily. Please won't you help
us get Siggy a foster home.... by contacting us at

Gunner
- Ontario, Canada
http://www.weimaranercanada.org/rescue/candidates.htm
\
Gunner is a big, enthusiastic, happy Blue Weimaraner
that needs regular exercise and attention than he was getting in his
previous home. He gets along well with children and other dogs
although can be a bit overwhelmed by bossier dogs. Gunner's main issue
is mild Separation anxiety - he is currently in a foster home and has been
left for short periods of time. So far he has not been destructive but did
bark quite a bit. The key is to make sure he is well-exercised before
leaving him and to build up the time he is left, gradually. He is not good
in a crate.
The ideal home for Gunner will be
willing to work on his anxiety while providing a secure environment and
making sure his energy is channeled properly. Gunner is currently
being fostered and his Foster Mom will have the final word in his placement.
Please contact Deb Wilson - Email:
weim@vaxxine.com or Phone (905) 935-9590 to receive our application
which is necessary to proceed with our adoption process.

Weimaraner Rescue of
the South

Jewel - Florida (panhandle area)
http://www.weimrescue.com/newversion/DisplayWeimDetails.aspx?ID=365

Let me tell you a little bit about
me:
Oct update: Jewel is a quick & lively girl who would LOVE to find her
forever home! Her favorite thing is a game of chace, running full speed &
jumping over everything in her path...sofas, chairs, coffee tables, whatever
is in her path! She is still a bit mouthy when you come home. She is so
happy to see you that she just cannot contain herself! Jewel (nicknamed
Julie) is a great dog who would do best in a home with a submissive male.
********
August 8 Update- Jewel is a sassy little girl who is full of life- she is
very sweet with lots of love to give. She would enjoy having someone home a
lot who can shower her with time and lots of attention. She really loves to
be pampered; will even let you brush her, bathe her, clean her ears and clip
her nails without making a fuss. She loves to share your bed at night,
snuggle with you on the couch and sun herself by the pool- but she has yet
to take a swim. She and her foster brother love a good game of chase anytime
and if he is not interested she can find birds or other critters outside to
chase! She is very good with her toys and food- will share with anyone and
expects you to do the same. She has not been a counter surfer. The one thing
Jewel really hates is having to go out and get her feet wet in the grass.
She has been here with me for 6 months and simply wants to lay her head in
your lap and show you what a loving weim she can
be!******************************April 2007 update: Julie (as I now
affectionately call her) has been with me for 4-1/2 months now and she is a
little sweetheart, very loving and greatly appreciates attention both from
myself as well as from Bacardi my male weim. They get along wonderfully
together, so I think she would have no problem bonding with another dog. She
does prefer to be the dominate dog … she and Bacardi have worked this out
themselves with very little intervention from me.
She is still mouthy but has shown much improvement, this is something I work
on continually… She is NOT vicious or aggressive. Being mouthy is her way of
getting your attention when she is excited. Now she primarily does it when I
return home after being away from her. While with me, Julie has not been
exposed to children.
Many weims have strong prey drives and Julie is no exception. She enjoys
giving chase to and barking at everything from frogs, lizards, birds,
squirrels, and yes cats. She is fast and very quick... actually caught a
nesting cardinal. She barks at any noise both indoors or outside, but you
can get hers settle down fairly easily.
Julie can be crated when I leave home or left loose in the house. She can
also be crated for the night. She crates very easily simply stand by the
crate and say “Julie crate” and she goes right in, no problem. However, now
she sleeps in my bed at night (at first Bacardi did not allow this. I cover
them with their blankets and they sleep through the night.
She can be active, likes to run through the house (playing chase with
Bacardi as fast as she can) and jumps over sofas, chairs, end tables! Note:
she never breaks anything. Julie and Bacardi will play chase like this for
10 minutes at a time off and on during a day. She also loves to curl/snuggle
up beside you or on top of you on the sofa or chair she loves to be close to
her humans, as is normal for the breed. Julie also can be quite the
“couch-potato” she likes to snuggle up on the sofa with me or Bacardi... but
her favorite place is to curl up in the Papa-Son-Chair and nap during the
day. She likes to chew on her Kong type toys (others just do not hold up for
my weims)...especially likes the ones filled with treats.
She is pure love and returns every ounce of love you give right back to you.
She really does thrive on your undivided attention. I think she would be
okay as an only dog … if her Human(s) were at home with her most of the
time. I do not think she would be happy left home alone for extended periods
of time in cases where husband and wife work full time.
**********Update January 2007- Jewel is still doing well in her foster home!
Her foster Mom says she is a very active weim- but she would not say
*hyper*- she loves to run and play (bot
