We brought from friends of friends in Oklahoma City at six weeks of age in 2004. Little did I know just what Weims would and could do! I was not a dog person. Mr. O was raised with Weims, but neglected to fill me in on typical Weim behavior.
From the American Kennel Club.
FRIENDLY (We have that covered.)
FEARLESS (Applies to Missy. She hates the AC repair man. Felony is a big chicken.)
OBEDIENT (Seriously? Have you met my Weims?!)
Traits from my experience.
HIGH STRUNG (Oh, Felony, Felony, Felony. Missy was a Golden Retriever in a Weim body until this year.)
VELCRO DOGS (They stick like Velcro. Literally. Just try pealing Felony off during a thunderstorm.)
ATTENTIVE (Felony could do anything in the house if he had opposable thumbs.)
GASSY (They scare each other with their farts.)
GUARDIANS OF THE YARD (They protect the yard from birds, squirrels, raccoons, rabbits and skunks. Need I say more?)
The stories I have on these jokers. Destruction of metal downspouts, lawn ornaments and house siding. Escape onto the golf course. Frequent visits to the emergency vet. My favorite (not really) removal of invading skunks in the backyard.
Overall they are loving dogs and bring joy (and chaos) to our lives.

I hope you enjoy their tales.
