LunaBot (2015 Erbenhof SnS Bo x Southpaw Mika) was Purple Girl out of the 2015 Project Mika Autobot litter. As a puppy, Luna was invited by Fox Studios to shoot a scene in a television mini-series, and in February, we caught a glimpse of her onscreen in the final episode of “American Crime Story,” featuring Cuba Gooding Jr. as O.J. Simpson. (We also met Mr. Gooding, and can say with certainty that he’s a very, very nice guy.) In December 2015, Luna traveled over 2,500 miles (with littermate brother Turbo) to see her biological dad (2xNFC/FC ERBENHOF SnS BOOGIE WOOGIE BO) compete in Ardmore, OK at the 2015 WCA NAtional Field Trial. In April 2016, while still under the care of Carlos and Jana, Luna earned a perfect score in her NAVHDA Natural Ability test with Carlos.

Five years later, she’s still here, and has been upgraded to “member of the permanent pack.” I don’t know what it is about that girl, but I love her. Luna also raised her first litter in Summer 2018, and is currently raising her second litter now. Luna’s pedigree can be viewed here.

Downtown Idaho Springs, Colorado in July 2018. 

Touchstone n’ Barrett’s Autobot Moonracer, “Luna,” was Purple Girl (and my pick) out of the 2015 Autobot litter. The litter Luna came from was bred 100% for field trial ability. In short, dogs were bred to have very fast ground speed, a good nose, ability to run forward, hunt hard, have endurance, and loads of tenacity. The average field-bred Weimaraner weighs between 45-50 lb, and Luna falls right in the middle at 48 lb. She also sports a dark, wiry coat, has medium amber eyes, and black nails.

In the home, Luna is loving, quiet, and submissive to the other dogs in the house; she’s an “I don’t want any trouble” kind of girl. Even at a young age, Luna has been proven to be trustworthy loose in the house when we are away. She doesn’t chew or destroy items that aren’t hers, and will hold her potty ALL DAY if she has to.

Snapshots of Luna over the last three years.

Luna at nine days (Purple Collar).

Luna at about three weeks of age.

At about four weeks of age, I had Luna with me on the sofa watching Hope Floats. 🙂 

This is me with baby Luna around February 2017 at a field trial. She was about six months old in this photo.

Luna out training to be a huntin’ dawg in California City with Carlos DeTevis.

Another photo out on the training grounds.

Baby Luna at home.

Every now and then, Barry and I would take one of our dogs with us to dinner in town. This is at a local Italian restaurant. Luna is always well-behaved when we take her out and about. 

Luna’s first litter arrived in Summer 2018. This was the first litter we raised in our Cedar City, Utah house.

    If you have a weimaraner with a mole above the left eye I would like it back. It was painfully stolen from me in April 2013. It was taken in the ferrandina beach Florida area. Huge cash reward. Call Leah 904 755 5026. All help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

      Sorry Leah. The only Weimaraners I own are the ones I’ve personally bred. And I’m located about 3,000 miles away from Florida. Hope you found your Weim.
