All our Weimies lived to be 14. They were inside dogs as well as outside dogs. One lived to 16. Rika just died in November aged 12 years and 6 months almost to the day. She outlived the rest of her litter. 12 years is a good age for an Anatolian. LGDs often live shorter lives due to interactions with predators, weather, etc. Bubba passed at barely 7. We think he ate a poisonous frog. Fine in the morning dead by afternoon. He was at Erick's awaiting semen collection. Horrible shock and grief for all of us.

You need to get Mel and Maisy a pup to train.

I’m pretty much “stuck” on my breed. All of them came from Belgium. USDA changed import rules (no pups under 6 mos allowed). Obi will be 10 next month and while I truly avoid thinking about it (don’t we all), his heavy working days are numbered. This is why I bred the litter and kept one - Obi is older and I can’t import.
