Weimaraners are prone to several genetic defects, including hip dysplasia, which affects the hip joint's development and can lead to Arthritis. They can also suffer from certain eye conditions, such as progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), which can lead to blindness. Additionally, some Weimaraners may experience thyroid issues, which can affect their metabolism and overall health. Regular veterinary check-ups and responsible breeding practices can help mitigate these risks.
