New Family Questionnaire - Matching Your Family with the Right Weim

Curious Weims New Family Questionnaire

As we mention in many places here on our website, one of the most important jobs we have as Weimaraner breeders, is finding and evaluating incredible Forever Families for all Curious Weims, no matter if it’s a new puppy or a rescue that has specific needs. We take this job VERY seriously and do everything we can to get to know each family that expresses interest in one of our Weims. That’s why we ask you to fill out our New Family Questionnaire.

One tool we use to get to know you and your family better is our New Family Questionnaire. This is NOT a test! Rather, it is a huge help in assisting both you and Curious Weims in determining if getting a Weimaraner from us is right for you and your family. We do not make any decision based only on this questionnaire, which is why we have a few simple steps to our process and not just one.

As a part of the process we use, we ask that you please complete the following New Family Questionnaire as honestly as possible to help us get to know you and your family! This also helps us determine WHICH puppy from a particular litter will best fit your family, or IF a rescue will work in your household or not.

If you have any questions or concerns about this Questionnaire, don’t hesitate to contact us today!

Thank you for taking the time to let us know more about you and your family!
