A Sleepy Weimaraner Puppy Chose a Cardboard Box Over Its Bed
A silver Weimaraner puppy has curled into a cardboard box and gone fast asleep. Its round head rests on the folded flaps, eyes shut, and its paws are crossed neatly in front. The box is a little worn and lopsided, and the puppy's gray coat looks smooth and soft against the brown. Blankets and a pair of dark socks lie scattered behind it.
Dogs and cats alike love boxes. An enclosed space helps a pet feel safe, and cardboard is warm and easy to push into. For a puppy, it is also something fun to chew and shred, which brings a few cautions. Small bits of cardboard may upset a stomach if swallowed in quantity, and staples or tape can be a hazard. Check the box first, remove any tape or staples, and swap it out when it gets chewed up.
Weimaraners grow quickly, and it will not be long before this puppy outgrows the box entirely. As adults, they are sleek, muscular dogs that love running, hiking, and spending time with their family. They are a good fit for people who want an active companion, and early training makes a big difference in their manners.
For now, though, the box is the best bed in the house, and the puppy is making full use of it. A good box deserves a good nap, and this one is getting both.
