Q. & A. with Amelia
Why did you start breeding?
Breeding was never at the forefront of my mind. I wanted a dog to compete with and ended up with a talented dog, Bonnie, that I have had a lot of success with in many different dog sports from conformation to field. Bonnie is a great example of the breed with a great temperament and health. She has traits I believe if passed on will improve the breed, therefore, starting my breeding journey.What makes your program special?
Trax Weimaraners, founded by Shirley Nilsson, has produced multiple AKC and CKC champions, grand champions, field champions, amateur field champions, dual champions, obedience trial champions, tracking champions, and more. Trax weimaraners has also produced certified working search and rescue, human remains detection, ballistics detection, therapy, and diabetic alert service dogs.What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have smooth coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are gray. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
