JEREMAI - 5 yr. old male Weimaraner. Jeremai's owner is moving into an
apartment and must surrender him and his brother, Baruch. Jeremai is a
friendly, easy going Weim. He enjoys the company of his people, and gets along
with other dogs, but does not require a dog companion. Jeremai looks forward
to his morning walks, playing in the sprinkler to cool off on a hot day, and
running figure-eights around the backyard. He barks at walkers by and wears
a bark collar to keep quiet, but this habit should go away when he spends more
time with his people. Jeremai sleeps outside in a 30x30x40 crate so he would
really like a home where he can sleep inside. He has not been tested with cats
and has not been around children. He is current on shots and neutered. In Paso
Robles. Contact norcalweimrescue@yahoo.org or 925-385-5275.
BARUCH, 5 yr. old male Weimaraner: Baruch and his brother, Jermai need a
new home as their owner is moving from a house to an apartment. They do not need
to be placed together. Baruch is the more excitable and friskier of the two. He needs
a lot of exercise and attention to keep occupied. He is friendly toward adults, but has
not been around children. He likes most dogs, but growls at some when on leash (not
necessarily male or female, it's random.) He really enjoys long walks and napping in
the sun afterward. He also enjoys performing the commands he learned in school for
treats. He barks at people walking by the house and wears a bark collar to keep
quiet. He sleeps outside in a 30x30x40 crate and would like to move inside with his
new family. Baruch would do very well in a home with active people who enjoy
getting exercise and throwing the ball for him. Baruch is neutered and current on
shots. In Paso Robles. Contact norcalweimresuce@yahoo.com or 925-385-5275






KNIGHTLY: 11-1/2 yr. old male Weimaraner came to Best Friends in Utah when his California owner
became terminally ill. He lives in a kennel and really wants out! Once out, he is relaxed and likes to
cruise around taking in the scenery; he likes to stick close to his person when out for walks or hikes. He is
in very good condition for an 11-1/2 year old and doesn't show any signs of arthritis or dysplasia. He has
several fatty tumors which is normal for his age. Knightly is very well behaved and listens for the "OK"
before leaving the car, house, etc. He is house trained but given his age, needs to be let out during the
night; he can use a dog door. He is Ok with cats, friendly with people and kids, but most at ease with kids
over 8 yrs. of age. He will growl & posture for guarding, but he has no aggression. Knightly loves bones
and toys, likes to cuddle on the bed, and is playful. He can be goofy - he likes drinking out of a water
bottle and gets into his back scratches in the grass. He takes treats gently, knows "sit", "stay", "down", and
"paw". He is good in the car with consistent reminders to "stay in the back" (he does not like being in a
crate!) Knightly bonds quickly with people and needs a person who will love him and let him love them.
If living with another dog, he will do best with a dominant dog that will not let him mount, sniff and lick
as he tends to do a lot. Although Knightly somewhat famous in the rescue community for having been
in a rescue TV series on National Geographic, Knightly truly needs a forever home to live out his senior
years, be it in another state or nearby Best Friends. Updated on shots and neutered. Please contact
Kristi Littrell - Adption Specialist, Best Friends, Utah - 435-644-2001 or Kristi@bestfriends.org.


BRITNEY: 7.5 yr old female Weimaraner: Britney is very loving! She bonds with her people
and feels secure and happy when in their presence. When Britney is left alone for more than a
couple of hours, she gets nervous and will chew on whatever she can find. Currently, she lives in
a condo without a dog companion. Britney will do best living with someone who is home a lot and
can provide doggie day care when gone, OR in a home with a dog companion whom she accepts as
her caretaker/leader. Britney likes most dogs, usually females but some males too. She gets
along with cats and chickens, though she enjoys chasing squirrels and birds. Britney loves car
rides and going for walks! She sleeps on a dog bed or her family's son's bed at night. She is
current on shots, spayed and in good health with a few "senior" lumps here and there, and is on
thyroid medication. She needs a special home where she can feel secure! In Sacramento. Please
contact norcalweimrescue@yahoo.com or 925-385-5275 for more information about Britney.

MADELINE6.5 yr. old female Weimaraner. Madeline has a quiet, loving
personality and a sweet face. She loves car rides and going on walks! If her day
consisted of a long walk, belly rubs and time in the yard to play and lie in the sun, she
would ask for nothing else. She has had some obedience training, and knows "sit",
"stay", "down" and is crate trained - but could use more leash training. Madeline likes
to chase birds, squirrels, and little dogs and cats, as she has a strong prey drive. She is
very good with adults and kids, and loves getting attention (especially those belly
rubs!) Madeline will do best with a submissive male dog so she can be Queen, but is too
big and active for toddlers. She enjoyed obedience training; she listens well and likes to
please. She is updated on all her shots and spayed. Madeline is in a foster home with
teenage kids and a male Weim and she is getting lots of TLC, but would like to find her
forever home soon. In Orinda. Contact norcalweimrescue.org or 925-385-5275.
HARLEY: 11 yr old male Weimaraner. Harley just turned 11 and
has lived with his family since he was 12 weeks old. They are
moving to London and are heartbroken that they cannot take him
along. He is a gentle, loving and tolerant senior who is living with 3
kids all under 4 yrs old. He enjoys hanging with his family,
sleeping on his dog bed or outside in the sun, and outings to the park
and the beach. He hasn't lived with another dog but enjoys playing
with them. He has had obedience training and is great on or off
leash. He is healthy and happy for his age and is so in need of a
loving home. Current on shots and neutered. Harley is in Tiburon.

SAM: 3 yr old male Weimaraner. Sam was found as a stray by Solano
County Animal Services. He came in with some scratches and bumps but is
feeling good and ready to go! Sam has a very sweet face and personality. He
is friendly with adults and dogs, but has not been tested with children or cats.
So far, he is too active for toddlers! Sam needs affection and reassurance
after spending a couple of weeks in the shelter. He loves to ride in the car and
get out and run, and will need some obedience and leash training for dog
walks. Sam is neutered, current on shots and microchipped. In the East Bay
Area. IMMEDIATE FOSTER HOME NEEDED! Contact
norcalweimrescue@yahoo.com or 925-385-5275.
NEW
CHARLIE: 14 mos. male Weimaraners (50lbs.) Charlie is a catch! He is from
a very strong hunting line and has been raised outdoors in a kennel with an
igloo. He's had lots of "bird" time hunting in the fields so he loves to get out and
run and play. He is extremely friendly and has a twinkle in his eye. He loves to
cuddle in your lap or just on top of you. His socialization has been limited to
group hunting exertions with other dogs and their owners, yet he is very curious
to meet new people and dogs. Charlie is neutered, current on his shots and ok in
a crate. He cannot live with cats and is too active for toddlers. Charlie needs to
put some weight on as he recently recovered from a virus. He will return the
favor of living in a warm, cozy home with lots of laughs and companionship. In
Hanford. Contact norcalweimrescue@yahoo.com or 925-385-5275.
