> About Dieter...
>
> Dieter started his life as a professional hunting dog and lived all if not
>
> most of his life at the trainer's house. When I picked him up 3 years
> ago,
> he was in a room about the size of my great room with 17 other Weimaraners
> in crates. Each Weim was allowed 20 minute/3 times a day in one of the
> runs. When he was not training, Dieter was crated. To my knowledge,
> Dieter
> lived the first 6 years of his life this way.
>
> The first couple months with Dieter were tough... he had never had a home
> and was not house broken. With the help of my other Weim, Dieter was able
>
> to pick things up rather quickly.
>
> 2 years ago, Dieter and I moved to Colorado and roommate with a friend in
> a
> condo. Except when Dieter got sick, he seemed to do well with the life
> style. Last year I bought my own condo and the last 6 months have been
> difficult. Dieter has had a couple urinary track infections and has
> become
> incognant due to these infections. He is currently on medicine but still
> needs more supervision then I can provide working full time.
>
> The perfect home for Dieter would be one were someone is home during the
> day
> or with someone who lives in a house with a back yard and a doggie door.
>
> Even though he just turned 9 years old in March, Dieter has plenty of
> energy. He loves children but I would not recommend Dieter to a family
> with
> an infant or a couple planning to have a baby. Dieter is very sweet and
> would never purposely hurt a child but just does not understand. Children
>
> in the toddler stage and older he is very gentle with.
>
> Dieter is very sweet and affectionate. He loves to have his ears pulled
> on,
> his chest scratched and of course his belly rubbed :-) Dieter loves going
> on walks, the dog park ...and just picked up swimming last year. As I
> said
> he still has a lot of energy for a 9 year old. He is very intelligent and
> can be very stubborn. He will require someone who can give him a lot of
> patients and discipline.
>
> Dieter gets along with most dogs (his best buddy is a 3 lb Yorkie) but he
> does have issues with cats. Though he has never harmed a cat, I would not
> recommend a home with cats.
>
> Other then the urinary problem (which I mentioned has been controlled with
> medicine), Dieter is in great health.
>
> I have attached a couple pictures so you can see just how handsome Dieter
> is
> :-)
>
> He really is a wonderful dog and as you all know, I love him very much.
> This is just not the ideal situation for either of us and I just want to
> find the best home for him.
