Weimaraner (The Gray Ghost) The King Of Stealth!

Anyone who has or knows a Weimaraner will know exactly why they have the nickname of 'The Grey Ghost'. I mean, one look into those gorgeous eyes and you'll know also.
Not to mention their stealth like abilities to 'temporarily' take possession of someone they love's prized belongings. Gilbert the hat thief anyone? The #weimaraner is incredibly adept in both hunting and tracking, but more importantly, they are extremely affectionate and love cuddles and affection in return. Big gray / grey blanket more like it!
If you have any of your own fun facts about the Weimaraner, please let us know in the comments.

[@evelynbonner3908]

I love that the smaller dogs always want to play with Gus and Gillie. It's like they know the big guys are just silly, fun, and so sweet.

[@janzwoolf8531]

I noticed how gently they play with the smaller dogs.

My Dad was a chain smoker who accidentally caught the drapes on fire. ❤Von❤his Weimaraner licked his face until he woke up. Von literally saved our lives and home😊

[@trishasheriff5012]

Wow! So lucky!

[@HappyDogsChannel]

Wow. What an incredible story Thanks for sharing.

[@levithewonderdog335]

Haha originally bred for hunting boars, bears and deer in the 19th Century. In the 21st Century they have advanced to hunting hats (well in Gilbert's case at least lol) 🤣🤣🤣

[@kae303x]

Gilbert the Hat-Thief and Gussy boy 🥰😍

[@gossamerabba]

Gertrude makes a cameo, too!

[@glenysperry3421]

Those velvet ears, blue eyes, cheekyness, intelligent, goofy, sweet, they just make me happy to watch.

[@thoreenburkhardt3050]

That word cheekyness is so cute! It's not used here in the States. We need to update our vocabulary!

[@glenysperry3421]

@@thoreenburkhardt3050 I just looked it up, I spelled it wrong, cheekiness. I am Canadian, but my maternal grandparents were from Great Britain, so maybe that is whom I heard it from. Anyway I love that people from many places enjoy this awesome family.

[@sharondamisch4856]

Hahaha! More like, Weimaraner (The Grey Goof) These pups are so entertaining and full of personality--I love them all! And as for King of Stealth, we all know Gilbert takes the cake, er, hat! 💚🥰😂

[@chriscorbin2059]

Your description of their hunting skills made me smile, but in Gilbert's case you forgot hats.

[@christinecook6310]

My thoughts exactly!😁 Love the fun facts also. Fun video Ben!👏🌟

[@olga138]

We had a Weimaraner when I was a kid and she was a lovely dog. I'm so glad to see that all of the Weimaraners at the Farm have their full tails: in the US in the 50s and 60s, they used to dock them. Lots of fun with Gussie and Gillie and all their playmates!

[@carolvanbeugenbik4632]

I would like to see the docking of tails banned across the world not just in certain places/countries. My Spanish Water Dog has the shortest docked tail the vet has ever seen and puts her at such a disadvantage when she meets other dogs, and humans, because she has learnt to bark to say hello instead and this gives off the wrong impression, as it's a very strong bark and sounds aggressive.

[@polishboy5]

What love most about all these dogs! Is their paw parents letting us share their beautiful dogs ,their personalities and memories on the Farm with us!..as they all truly Brighten our days!…🐾🥰🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🐾

[@carolvanbeugenbik4632]

Yes, without the pawrents, we wouldn't be able to enjoy these amazing characters- so a big thank you to them from me too.

I had not idea how much they help in search and rescue. Thanks

[@maryellennichols4524]

We had a true Blue Weim. We named him Blue and he loved to swim. Blue would "steal" my sons stuffed toys and then play keep away, just like Gilbert does with Luke's hat. And when we played, he loved to body bounce or body check with you and then big leanings up against our legs for the big cuddles. Blue loved helping open Christmas presents. We would give him his present first and then he would help us open ours. Loved sleeping on his pillow under his blanket. 😄 So many more cherished memories. 😊

[@HappyDogsChannel]

Thanks for sharing. That is adorable... I can so picture Blue opening presents. What a glorious Christmas experience that must have been.

[@saraseale2364]

Blue sounds like a splendid fellow. 💙 Lots of heart and soul.🤍

There is a long haired weimaraner. They are rare, being born from two parents with the recessive gene. So they can be born to short haired parents.
