About Virginia’s Breed:
Weimaraner mixes are often intelligent, athletic, and deeply people-oriented companions. They thrive with activity, structure, and consistent training. Known for forming strong bonds with their families, they typically enjoy both adventure and relaxation. Virginia already shows that lovely balance — playful when it’s time to play and calm when it’s time to settle.
Virginia’s Story & Personality:
Virginia is an easygoing puppy with a wonderful temperament. She has moderate to high puppy energy but settles nicely and enjoys downtime just as much as playtime. She loves leash walks and does very well on them, happily exploring while staying close to her people.
She is almost fully housebroken and is crate trained. Until she is completely reliable, she should continue to be crated when left alone. A fenced yard would be helpful for safely burning off puppy energy, but she would also thrive in an active home committed to daily walks and engagement.
Virginia is friendly with adults, children, and other dogs. While she hasn’t been cat tested, her gentle and sweet disposition suggests she would likely do well with proper introductions. She is very food motivated and trains easily, making continued puppy training a positive and rewarding experience.
She does love to chew, as most puppies do, so having durable chew toys like Benebones readily available will help keep her happy and engaged. Overall, she is a sweet, affectionate girl who will make a loving and joyful addition to the right home.
Virginia’s Ideal Home:
Active household ready for puppy training
Fenced yard preferred or commitment to regular walks
Family who will continue house training consistency
Home ready for both snuggles and puppy playtime
Someone who appreciates a loyal, people-focused companion
