Hello All!

We are thinking about getting a rescue doberman and I came across this cutie.

Petfinder Adoptable Dog | Doberman Pinscher | San Antonio, TX | Delany

Do you think she could possibly be a weimaraner? We have a cat and I know weimaraners are agressive towards cats so I wanted to get everyone's expert opinion!

There's also a video of her on the site to get a better look at her.

Thanks everyone!

I have a Weimy, 2 cats, (in the house) 2 geese and a duck. He is fine with all of them including the fowl and will actually lay with the geese in their pen when it is left open. Poorly bred Weims can also carry "the mark of the hound" which essentially represents the tan points on a doberman.

While this is true, there is a slight difference. Weims were bred to hunt. Dobes were bred to protect. I may be wrong though. I often am.

In Germany Weims had to pass a protection sort of test prior to be used for breeding. Keep in mind that Weims were used for large game and was only when that was not a scenario that they became Bird dogs, etc.
