Eyes other than gray, blue-gray or light amber are considered to be a very serious fault. Sadly, the appealing, intensely blue color of the puppy usually begins to fade by 6 weeks. The blue color fades, then orange-yellow spikes appear and slowly widen. The yellow pigmentation spreads and sometimes deepens to dark amber. The changes are gradual and color stabilizes when the Weimaraner is about a year old, though their is wide variation.
Complete dentition is greatly to be desired.
Lips and Gums Pinkish flesh shades. A black mottled mouth is considered a very serious fault. Although lips and gums should be pink, approximately 90 percent of the breed develops gray mottling of a shade similar to the coat and skin on the palate, gums, and inside the flews as well as some on the eyelids as the dogs age. Thus, gray mottling is typical and appears to be related to the aging process. The back should be moderate in length, set in a straight line, strong, and should slope slightly from the withers.
