Walk for Weims Virtual Dog Walk

Walk for Weims is designed to be flexible, fun, and inclusive. Which means you can participate anywhere on April 12, National Weimaraner Day!

Walk your neighborhood, favorite park, hiking trail, beach, or even your treadmill if the weather doesn’t cooperate. Whether you walk with a local group, your own pack, or just you and your Grey Ghost, every step helps support Weimaraner rescue.

Prefer walking with others? Many participants organize local meetups across the country. You can join a group walk if one is happening near you, or even help start one in your area.

Already registered and later find a group walk you want to join? No problem! You do not need to re-register. Your registration works for both virtual participation and group walks. Simply show up and walk with the pack.

However you choose to participate, you are part of the Walk for Weims community helping create awareness, support rescues, and celebrate this incredible breed.
