Smokey

Breeder Comment

We spoke with Niki and Chuck regarding their first Longhair. What we loved was how she said, “Shela, I remember you saying I would never be sorry.” “I am not! We love him even though we wanted the traditional smooth coat. We love him even though he had an eye issue (which you fully disclosed) before we accepted him. Anyhow, they promised to keep us apprised on the eye issue. It may never become serious–or it could end up being a more serious problem. Nonetheless, they assured us they would never regret having him in their life. Do we not meet the most awesome Weimloving folks ever? Yes, we do! Read on about Smokey–the much-loved Longhair.

Niki Reports

~about his eye

Smokey had his first annual left eye check-up exam today. The doctor (an amazing local eye specialist) said his pressures were stable and he didn’t show any signs of inflammation. Unfortunately, he has developed new scarring on his cornea and cataracts ☹️😔. She did say, however, as long as it doesn’t become inflamed he should be fine until his next check-up next year.
Worst case scenario; he needs surgery to remove the left eye. So thankfully his right eye is perfectly working. He definitely is more guarded and startled when it comes to that eye since his vision is blurred. Otherwise, we don’t even notice and love him unconditionally. We knew going into it (taking him home and becoming part of our furever family) that he had a cloudiness in that eye.

He Won Our Hearts

Shela and Cliff were appreciate that you were very informative about the situation. We still chose to go forward with taking him. He won our hearts then and still does now. He gets pampered every night and probably babied a little more now. Next edition of our Smokey Saga will be the grooming process. Never in a million years would I thought of having a higher maintenance weim after my first (shorthair) weim.

More From Shela and Cliff

We look forward to working with you folks again–as discussed. We cannot be happier to hear that Smokey delights you. Also, we appreciate that you care for him in every way. Thank you, for keeping us apprised.
