My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Yound Grey Male Weim - approx. 2 y.o. being fostered in Attica, NY.
Marley was returned to NYSWR after playing too rough with his weimey sister, giving her a cut on her face, in his first adoptive home. He was found last summer wandering around Rochester, NY, terrified of humans. He is still rather scared, but has come a long way. With some love, patitience and training Marley will make a great addition to some lucky home!

UPDATE:5/15/07 Marley is doing very well... he is starting to warm up, though he is still very scared. He is walking better on the leash and is learning about staying in his crate quietly. He likes to play with other dogs. He is learning to be gentle when taking treats and playing with other dogs.
He needs more training, but is progressing with love and patience!

Contact NYSWR for more information!

Update 6/1/07
He has learned to sit and is learning to continue to trust humans and has made a huge improvement walking on a leash, responding to his name, and coming when called. He is such a love muffin, though is very scared ast first, he has warmed up to us and now seeks out attention and is even giving kisses!

I think that he is going to need an obideince class to continue socialization and working on the basics. He went with us to Weim Nationals in Pittsburgh and did WONDERFULLY with all of the people and dogs around. I was very pleased with his behavior and calmness!

He has been learning to play frisbee and chase balls and is bringing them back almost all of the way now. I think he would do better with a fenced yard, so if he is startles he cannot run, but is doing OK on a long lead when we are working on his commands.
