I have a one year old weimaraner. They have really bad separation anxiety. She hates being left alone. And now when she know I am getting ready to leave she will get sad and put her ears down and lay on the couch.
I am super active and take my dog for runs or hiking probably 6 days a week. I knew I would have to do this when I got her because she is such a high energy dog.
Take that into account when you get a dog. Dont get a high energy dog if you are not a high energy person. They will drive you crazy.
It's true about alot of people who have dogs dont train them enough. I never use the leash anymore. She will just run and walk on my right side while I am walking and ignore other dogs and people.
Also take them to the dog park when they are young so they get used to playing with other dogs.
I still feel SUPER! bad about leaving my dog when I go to work and stuff. she will sit and look at me out the window when I leave. It's super sad.
I am going to get another dog for x-mas. I am thinking of getting a vizsla, which is almost exactly like a weimaraner only brown and a little smaller.
Here is pictures of my baby.
It has been storming here all week so bad that I could not take her for runs outside and she has been going crazy in the house. Being really restless.
