Weimar - Dog Breed

Westford, MA

The Weimaraner (gray ghost)

One of the most novel windvane found so-far, and the largest - estimated 30 to 36 inches (76 ~91cm) tall.
Known as the Weimar Pointer in the early days of the breed, the Weimaraner was developed by the noblemen of the
Court of Weimar to hunt large game. When boar, elk, and deer became scarce in Germany, he was converted to a bird dog.
