The Bavarian Alps

Back in 1989 my husband and I were about to buy a home in Livermore, California. During that time there was great price war for homes. Interest rates were the highest ever. Houses were selling within hours. Sometimes two families would buy a house and outbid everyone. Well, I guess we got really lucky. We found a nice home with a large backyard. My husband and I wanted a dog. He wanted a Wiener dog and I wanted a Weimaraner. I am quicker than him and I started my journey into looking for a Weimaraner. At the time I could not find a single breeder, mostly did not know where to look. Remember this was 1989. I did talk to some real interesting characters that I would not buy a flea from.

Then by a miracle, I got in touch with a woman in Los Gatos. I spoke with her about my need for a Weimaraner. At first she was not sure about me, due to all the strange calls she must receive. However I knew she could help me find a Weimaraner. So I call her back determined to do whatever it took. At that point, she felt at ease and gave a name of a Breeder in Rhode Island. I called her, and she said if you get one of my puppies, you will have to show. I said Okay! My neighbor raised Goldens and she was able to help me. My neighbor Susan even showed “Ashha” until I got the hang of it or found a handler. Since then my husband has handled many of our dogs to their wins.

So Ashha came to us! She is very beautiful -- great personality -- loves to swim Hunt and go on 4 wheeler adventures. We love her to death. Ashha is 15 years old now and is a great-grandmother.
