When it comes to field work the Weimaraner and the Weimaraner Long Hair is truly a versatile breed.

The breed is used in all aspects of field work from finding game to pointing & retrieving. The Weimaraner is used on many different game species including deer, duck, rabbit, quail, pheasant and foxes. It can adapt very quickly to hunt fur and/or feather.

The Weimaraner generally has a "Soft Mouth". The webbed paws make this breed a very competent swimmer for retrieving birds from the water.

You will see the Weimaraner competing in all different facets of field disciplines which include-

Non Slip Retrieving Trials
Field Trials
Utility Gundog Ability Test 
Retrieving Ability Test for Gundogs (RATG)


Water retrieve


Steady to shot


 Scenting game


The Weimaraner Club of Vic Inc. holds training days to help members with all the above disciplines & more.
