Has anyone ever hunted behind a weimaraner? I know they are mainly used as bird dogs, but I have seen some really good hog dogs that were bird dogs. The weimaraner seems lake an athletic, fast, intelligent dog. Dont know why that couldnt be a good hog dog.

I met a guy who had a weimaraner claiming he was an amazing hog dog. This was back before I had an interest in hog dogs.

I have been around a few but not hog dogs. I have even seen them as guard dogs. They would be real gritty for sure or not hunt hogs.

The Germans have bred some good sporting dogs... These are supposed to be all around dogs for pointing and retrieving and wild boar but the backyard breeders and show dog breeders don't breed for none of the above. I have heard of some that were good hog dogs but never have hunted with one. |

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
