Weimaraner

Weimaraners are very interesting dogs. Their shoulder height is anywhere form 22" to 28", and they usually weigh between 55 and 85 lbs. Weimaraners are always a shade of gray, varying from a more brown-gray to a black-gray. They originated from Germany, where they were the results of cross-breeding bloodhounds and other hunting dogs in Europe.  They are in the Sporting Group Category. When I said they were very interesting dogs (which they are), I meant that they have very interesting facts about the breed. For example, the Weimaraner's eyes. When they are puppies, their eyes are blue, but when they are adults, their eyes turn yellow! And they have many important jobs they do. For example, they are used as police dogs, search-and-rescue dogs, watchdogs, and even your best friend.
