TWO DECADES OF WORKING WEIMARANERS

I am currently working my 8th generation of home bredWeimaraners, each of them having gained KC Field Trial qualifications in the UK, and field tests in Germany.
I breed occasionally for driven but biddable workers, typey in conformation, well-tempered and without health issues, from hip-scored sire and dam and within breed club ethics and guidelines.

Without an inkling of what was to come, I brought home my first Weimaraner and foundation bitch, Jally, in 1994.
So began a huge lifestyle change – from town to country girl, learning about the breed, field work and shooting as well as showing, and made her up to full Champion, Ch Silberstern Moonlight von Trubon, JW.

Bibe and Chyna on the peg

Bibe and Chyna on the peg

Although I show occasionally, my love is all things field work, and my years are spent busily in the shooting season. As well as working with me on walked up and syndicate days in the UK and abroad, my dogs also pick up on other shoots.

My currently competing Weimaraner bitches, Delta and Flysse, have both qualified to run in Open field trials. Out of season we pigeon and rabbit shoot, do grouse counts, and compete in Gundog Tests of Work. Chyna, who was an Open field trial award winner, went blind after illness but is fearless, and joins in picking up and does a good job on the peg for me, and enjoys all the activites the others do.  She has been featured retrieving rabbits on youtube, and in the Shooting Times, picking up for me on driven days.
Graf has proved an energetic and wide ranging young boywith a passion for hunting, retrieving and waterwork and will join the working team gradually.

After 10 years of  organising Field Trials and training days for the Weimaraner Club of Great Britain as the Field Trial Secretary, I am now focusing on my own dogs.

I am also a KC A-panel field trial judge and am on show judging lists for Weimaraners, GSPs and GWPs.

Her sister Cino is an Icelandic Show Champion and in field training and brothers Havok and Dash are successful agility winners, and sister Abbie is working her way up Working Trial qualifications.

2008, ‘D’  litter – Hana to Sh Ch Morganna Millerson, old English lines going back to Ch Morganna Mozart in Jally’s lines.  Including my Delta, Open field trial qualified.
Graf and Bran are competing successfully in agility.

2009, ‘E’ litter- Bibe mated to Millerson.

Teasel, the BOSS

Teasel, the BOSS

I have to add a note about Teasel, my Teckel (Ubine vom Schutthause), imported from Germany, She has proved to be a totally unique experience. Winning 1st Prizes in each German test I have taken her back to Germany to do. She may be little but she is The Boss of the Weimaraners, an adversary for any fox but transforms in to the sweetest house dog and sofa cuddle-bunny! Sadly passed but not forgotten, May 2015.
