Bracken & Fansome


On the 12th & 14th March 2014 we took our much loved Weimaraner Enjager Bracken to mate with Gunalt Fansome of Allenie, he is the son (by artificial insemination) of the late great Flimmoric Fanclub a famous American bred Weimaraner from the eighties, his mother is Gunalt Signature also known as Gracie.

Gunalt Fansome of Allenie's father Flimmoric Fanclub is credited with breeding some very famous names in the Weimaraner world i.e. he is the father of Gunalt Harris Tweed, the Grandfather of Gunalt Unstoppable & the Great Grandfather of Gunalt De Ice.

Following in the footsteps of his predecessor’s above, Fansome won his Weimaraner class at Crufts this year and is continuing to excel in the show ring.

Opposite is a video of Bracken's 1 month scan, considering our vet scanned her with the same scanner they use on farm and it was filmed using an iPhone it has'nt turned out too bad.

(During Bracken's Pregnancy)



DAY 44

Bracken and Saphy enjoying a cool drink from a stream after a long walk, look at the difference in back width, Bracken's certainly filling out.


DAY 45

A Weimaraners pregnancy is usually 63 days from mating, at 40 days we start worming Bracken daily with Panacur wormer, until two days after whelping (giving birth), this is recomended as the unborn pups can become infected with worms while in the womb. Bracken is no fool trying to get her to take the wormer is difficult, unless you mix it with a little milk as shown opposite, the things you have to do.
