I tried to get her pictures posted but this Apple won’t let me do it. Keeps saying stuff like it doesn’t recognize the url or something stupid. Anyhow I got a beautiful puppy, 9 weeks old, her name is Angel. She’s from Columbus, Ohio. Last pup from his last litter. The man was crying as he carried her to my car. I don’t blame him. I’ll do my best to get her pictures to Yinz.

Congrats!
I don't want to not have a dog in my life, either.

Those are some of the prettiest dogs around. As a kid we had one that made it 15yrs. Duke never got to go bird hunting but man he killed a lot of groundhogs. He would ride around with dad in his pickup. Every Saturday they’d both go get egg McMuffins. Probably why Duke was over 100lbs lol
The Weimaraner breed was included in the mix that came to be known as the present day Doberman. They refer to that color in Dobermans as "fawn", there is also a blue and the more common black and tan, and red and tan. A puppy I got was in a litter that had ever color possible, she was the fawn color and the largest female in a litter of all females but one male. She was the most beautiful lavender color with the tan coloration where it is normally seen on the rest of the breed. I had a vet argue with me about her being a Weimaraner at the time because I did not initially want to cut her ears, she had her tail docked very early. I saw no need to cut her ears and this vet basically talked me into it, otherwise she would be confused with being a Weimaraner, which wasn't a big deal as far as I was concerned. This variation is considered quite rare with only about one in ten thousand born that color, its a throw back in their genetic line. Similar to the way the Rottweiler lineage will show up in outsized dogs, referred to a "Gladiator" Dobermans, those guys can reach upwards of 120lbs with the Doberman speed and Rottweiler strength. The English Greyhound was where they truly got the speed and endurance bred into the Doberman line. Conveniently Herr Doberman was a local Sheriff and also doubled as dog catcher, in his spare time he tinkered with developing a good "Police Dog". Weimaraner was a good addition in my opinion and probably responsible for the good hound nose and temperament.

If you ever find a cold heart that needs warming then zap it with these eyes:

That is the same color of my "fawn" Doberman except she had the golden tan markings typical of the breed, along with golden yellow eyes. Your pup is a good looking dog...
She is a CUTIE!!

Thanks so much, Rusty. You're the best! I don't know what else to say!

My last Weim, Daisy will forever be in my heart. 13 1/2 years of pure love. This baby already is learning and lovin' it! I'm not sure if she'll be 96# of pure muscle but I'll give her "All My Lovin'", as some Beatle sang. So far at about 3+ months she's 30# and full of stuff & vinegar! Being retired will help both of us a lot. I didn't know I needed her.
Thanks again Rusty for posting that pic for me. I'll figure it out some way or 'nother!
