Digit's Notable Accomplishments
-
Military moves (often) have slowed Digit's opportunity. Now that
we are settled in CA, we look forward to filling this space soon.
Digit's Structure and Conformation

To the left: At 3 years of age (March 2001).
To the right: On the line at a field trial (September 2000).
In a word, Small. Digit is a well balanced dog, with lovely movement. She
has better bone and rib spring than her flashier mother. Her coat
is medium grey with no white or "dobe markings." It is very dense, short,
and thoroughly protects her chest and belly. She generally carries an undercoat,
which provides extra protection in the field. Digit has a feminine head
with a sloping stop. Her eyes are well spaced, almond shaped, and medium
yellow. Digit's chest is very definitely the field type. It is deep, and
well sprung to giveplenty of room for lung expansion. Conformationally,
Digit is more of the field type than the show type. If her mother
is a show dog - Digit is a working dog - stockier and smaller than her
mother, yet still well built.
Digit's Temperament and Health
Temperament
In a word, Loving. You can be watching TV and the next thing you know,
Digit has wrapped herself around your neck (literally!). To Digit,
strangers are friends she hasn't made yet. A dog dominant Weimaraner
bitch, Digit is watchful of her place in 'the pack', yet soft with people.
She is a quick and happy learner. Hardy in temperament, she takes
to the pressures of more intense training easily and with no ill effect.
She is very, very stable and is not worried by new or unusual situations.
Health
There is no known history of hip dysplasia, extra eye lashes, or immuno
deficiency, in this dog or her lines.
Digit In the Field
In a word, a Intense. She's like two different dogs. One the
soft, loving, trainable Digit we know in the house. The other the
intense hunter of the field. Digit is a dog we have to watch in warm
weather to ensure she doesn't harm herself by working too hard. Digit's
point is strong and stylish. She not only points birds, but she finds them.
Digit has an outstanding nose, often pointing game from 15 to 20 feet away.
She runs a medium Gun Dog range showing intelligent use of wind and cover.
Digit likes to keep to the cover, using a more traditional quatering pattern.
Digit was slow to mature in the field. She showed some promise for
the first two years, but nothing earth shattering. Then, after she
turned two, she blossomed into a hard driving, hard hunting, intense hunter.
Her sire's owner confirms that this is typical of his pups.
Thoughts about Digit's Breeding
Digit's breeding was a search for a more consistently produced versatile
dog. Her father is the Weimaraner who is closest to the elusive Triple
Champion title. We felt this breeding would be a fine marriage, bringing
together two dogs both equally strong in conformation and field.
We were so pleased with the results we repeated the breeding, producing
Tess.
