Coat, energy and training

Shedding

Moderate

Neither parent has a low-shedding coat, so expect dog hair around the house and seasonal heavy shedding.

Energy

Very high

Plan on long daily walks plus real exercise, such as running, fetch or a sport. A yard alone will not tire this dog out.

Trainability

Very high

The Boxer rates high and the Weimaraner very high; a puppy may lean either way.

Grooming

Low

A weekly brush and the odd bath keep the coat in shape.

Temperament

The Boxer is usually described as bright, fun-loving, active. The Weimaraner as friendly, fearless, obedient. A mix can take after either parent or land in between. If you can, meet both parents of a puppy before you choose.
