Featured Weimaraner — Targa
Targa is fitting in well!
Jan 4, 2013 — Life has been crazy since we got Targa – holidays, stomach flu running through the house, colds too, the snow – BUT Targa is doing well, everyone adjusted quickly, he loves the kids and they love him, hubby too. Training is going well. I love Don Sullivan’s information – very similar to Scotch Pines, but even better.
We are getting positive results for the most part!
Targa’s a bit stubborn, but terribly smart. He pointed at our bunnie a couple of days after we got him. And while he really wants to chase the chickens, I can call him off. I can keep him within the front yard borders with a firm ‘NO’ as he approaches the boundary. He potty trained super fast. He sits for his meals (w/ a high-five) and sits at the door before I’ll open it to go out or in. I can clean his ears and trim his nails with no issues. The puppy biting is our only complaint.
I’ll get a picture off soon – he’s really beautiful.
March 30, 2013 — I finally, a sort of decent picture of the 6 month old, and I have a few minutes to send it to you. A beautiful specimen in my opinion. Crazy smart and very full of energy. Loves to be outside.
Breeder’s Note: Puppy Biting is the bane of most Weim owners. They want to engage everyone, and everything with their mouth. This is never more true than those they love. It seems unending, but with time and patience it will subside. We and others have written extensively on this topic.

He is a large guy – wow! (or is it only the picture?)
It is ONLY the photo. I don’t think he is very large for six months. I would guess at the most 50 Lbs….probably not that much. His father is smaller, as well as his mother. I don’t think he will get large like Stackhouse who is around 90 Lbs.
