Greetings one and all!

I've just joined and thought I would introduce myself - to prove I'm
good at following the start-up directions! <grin>

I'm Tiffany Smith and I'm from Melbourne, Australia.

I've been on the hunt for a great dog to join my family for about 12
months now, mostly researching breeds and reading lots and lots. My
search so far has taken me into nearly every breed of gun dog since I
want a companion animal and they best fit the bill. I had originally
excluded weimaraners because I was worried they were too "alpha" for
me but have since spent time chatting to a friend who has a weim (got
her as a pup of about 14 weeks and she's now almost a year old). Her
expertise with dogs coupled with her personal experience with a weim
has turned me around. I'd always loved the look and presence of
weims but didn't want to select a breed on looks....

So my more recent reading on weims has led me to knowing there is
such a thing as longhaired weims and I must confess I'm a bit sold!
Great dog, fabulous personality and the unique looks are very
appealing. I know no where near enough about weims yet and would
love to tap into the collective expertise of this group which
specialises in longhaired weims.

I'm pleased to meet you all and look forward to learning heaps about
weims and longhaired weims while I'm here. Thanks for letting me
join.

Tiffany
