Exposure to people and dogs must be a constant part of your dog-care routine for the rest of your Weim's life, to help ensure it remains an outgoing, friendly companion.

Aggression and shyness are increasing problems in the breed, and if either problem is not properly addressed, may result in dogs who bite. Professional help may be needed.

Besides socialization, activities outside the home give mental and physical stimulation to this highly active, restless, intelligent breed.
