The head of the Weimaraner has a moderate stop structure, flaring from the center line to the forehead. It has a very prominent occipital bone, which is the same shape as the trumpet, flaring from the eye sockets to the back. The length from the tip of the nose to the stop is equal to the length from the stop to the occipital bone. The Weimaraner has a very straight upper lip, and its nostrils are very delicate. It has very tight skin. The neck is of a very good length, with clean and neat lines. The ears of the Weimaraner are long, very similar to the shape of leaves, set high and slightly folded. The eyes are various shades of light amber, gray or blue-gray, and the width between the eyes is large and well-set. The teeth are well-matched with the jaws, and the bite is very standard scissor. The upper teeth are slightly outward and no longer than 1/16 of an inch longer than the lower teeth. It has a gray nose. The lips are pink or flesh-colored. The gums are the same as the lips. The

Originated from Germany

The Weimaraner originated in Germany in the 17th century, but it was not until the early 19th century that the Weimaraner became an independent breed.

The nobles of the Grand Duchy of Weimar in Germany improved the bloodhound with various hunting dog breeds. The Weimaraner's keen sense of smell is inherited from its ancestors. With the development of history, the hunting beasts in Germany also became extinct, and the Weimaraner began to be used for bird hunting. Since the monopoly of the nobles was broken, the breeding of the Weimaraner breed is still strictly controlled. Before 1930, it was still not allowed to take this dog out of Germany. Later, many American and British enthusiasts finally got this dog breed. Looking back at the history of the Weimaraner, it is a dog with a relatively short breeding history. If it is not a direct descendant, but only a certain collateral descendant, the Blood Terrier is considered to be one of the ancestors of the Weimaraner. In the breed survey, when historians traced back to the red Schweizeris hound, they could not go on. Instead, it was difficult to imagine that none of the several different Schweizeris hounds could be traced back to the Blood Terrier, but the Blood Terrier was prevalent in Europe during the Crusades. The red and tan Schweizeris hound found near Hanawa was described as "having many characteristics of the Blood Terrier." However, the shoulder height of the Schweizeris hound is about 53.3 cm, while the average shoulder height of the Blood Terrier is 66.0 cm, and the highest of the Weimaraner is 68.6 cm.

In fact, in the early days of the Weimaraner, it was considered simply a Weimaraner Pointing Dog. Since then, the Weimaraner has grown in height and weight, but its distinctive silver-gray or dark brown-gray coat has remained the same.

With the demise of big-game hunting in Germany, the Weimaraner was trained as a bird dog for all forms of upland hunting, and in Germany and the United States, the Weimaraner was used more as a private hunting companion than for field hunting competitions. Interest in the Weimaraner has remained high, and even before the American Kennel Club recognized it in 1943, a female Weimaraner that had been filmed on CD was shown publicly in the United States three times in 1941.

Nowadays, Weimaraners are attracting worldwide attention. They have appeared in popular movies. In 2002, Jennifer Lopez played the role of Senate candidate Chris Marshall in "Manhattan Girls". In the play, she owned a Weimaraner, which appeared in many scenes. Angelina Jolie shot a St. John's advertising series, and she appeared with a Weimaraner named Chalcy.

Weimaraners are also the favorites of presidents of various countries. Kemal, the first president of the Republic of Turkey, owned a Weimaraner named Fox, former US President Eisenhower owned a Weimaraner named Heidi, and former French President Giscard d'Estaing owned a Weimaraner named Jugurtha, and was often photographed by reporters talking and laughing with the Weimaraner. Princess Grace of Monaco also has a Weimaraner, and she often carries it with her during her visits.
