WEIMARANER BEGINNERS’ AGILITY TRAINING: Sunday 3rd April 2022

If you have ever wanted to ‘have a go’ at agility but have never found the opportunity or perhaps you’ve done a previous taster session, ‘just for fun’ classes or have a few jumps in your back garden then this could be for you.

I have organised a training event especially for Weimaraner owners who have no experience or who are very new to agility. This will be held at an established training school; Redgates, in the CM6 area of Essex, 20 minutes from Stansted/M11 junction.

There will be one or two classes of 2 hours duration each, depending on uptake, with a maximum number of 6 handlers per class so that you have lots of individual attention. (If we cannot fill the session with Weimaraners it will be open to other breeds and existing Redgates club members).

The focus for complete beginners is familiarising your dog with some of the basic equipment and teaching you how to get them working on it.

Handlers with dogs that are familiar with the equipment will focus more on skills training and working your dog over a sequence of obstacles.

For health reasons dogs should be 12 months of age or over for the above classes. If we have interest from those with younger dogs, Redgates may consider putting on an additional session, however there is little value in bringing a dog under 6 months of age.

The venue has a large grass exercise area around the arenas, an all weather training area, and basic toilet facilities. Provided weather has been ‘good to us’, training will be on grass.

Please bring your own refreshments. There is water available on site for dog’s drinking water. Parking is extremely limited unless the ground is very dry, so we are limited to 6-8 cars. Sadly we cannot accommodate spectator’s cars as parking at the venue is limited. There are very basic toilet facilities at the venue, a ‘porta potty’ in a shed!

The venue is about half an hour from The National Trust, Hatfield Forest, should you like to explore after the event, please check their website for current covid restrictions and booking.

Please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. to receive booking form and more information. Any queries please get in contact.

A charge of £20 per dog covers the venue hire and the trainer’s time. Full payment is required to reserve your space at the time of booking. Please return entry form and payment by 10th March 2022

Why now is not the time to get a puppy

Update March 2021

Over the last year, I have had numerous calls and emails asking me if I know of any litters. I am not alone. I know that the secretaries of all the other breed clubs have experienced the same, as have breeders. In fact, there has been a huge demand for dogs of all breeds. And on the back of this demand, the price has skyrocketed, with some greedy breeders asking £3000 + or more. sometimes for an unregistered puppy. This has led to the frightening escalation of dog thefts, with reports of dog nappers hanging around parks with the intention of grabbing the much-loved family pet. Now I read that owners are buying reinforced leads and collars, personal alarms, and sprays to arm themselves when they take their pet for a walk. This is a result of the greeders and the idiots who pay the inflated prices

Thinking of buying a Weimaraner

Why do you want a Weimaraner? Unfortunately, far too many people reply, 'I just love the colour' And that is the worst reason for wanting one of these special dogs. Have you done your research? Have you spoken with Weimaraner owners or visited an event such as a dog show where you can meet lots of Weimars? Do you know what makes them tick?

What's a fair price for a puppy

The Club Committee discussed this matter at a recent meeting after it was reported that some Weimaraner breeders were charging an exorbitant £2,500 - £3000 -4,000 for their puppies. After much discussion, the Committee decided that £950 - £1250 is a fair price range and anything more and the breeder would need to easily justify the extra cost. Given that some of the top breeders in the country, both show, and work, don't charge more for their pups, we can't see how other breeders can demand more for their pups.
