A lot of people mistake Weims for light colored Dobes. I knew someone who got a fawn Dobe with natural ears and passed it off to his homeowners insurance as a Weim - because many insurance company’s won’t insure homes with Dobes.
Weimaraners are very intelligent. Good watchdogs, gentle with children, and excellent hunting dogs. Hubby was amazed at how quickly he was able to train ours to respond to voice commands.
