Application

Thank you for your interest in our Weimaraners!

The purpose of this questionnaire is to provide us, the breeder, with the information we need to match you with the right Weimaraner for your family and lifestyle. This may seem like “overkill” but we believe it is necessary to ensure a lifelong placement. We hope it will also help you to determine if the Weimaraner is the right breed for you, and to ensure that you are prepared to make this commitment.

The more detailed your answers the better.
