The fun sport of Barn Hunt is based on the traditional role that many breeds had in ridding barns, farms, silos and outbuildings of vermin- and historically, these dogs were terriers – so when Weimaraner owners joke that it feels like “cheating”to enter a tracking event with one of their dogs because they’re so good at it, it isn”t entirely funny. The very first dog to earn a Barn Hunt championship—a RATCH—in the terrier-tailored sport of barn hunt was a Weimaraner named “Lexi.”
