Welcome to the official website of the Weimaraner Klub of Gauteng, the only KUSA-affiliated Weimaraner club in South Africa (And yes the K in Klub is intentional – the name of the club was derived from that of the German club)
The aim of the klub is to maintain and improve the quality of Weimaraners in South Africa by expecting Klub registered breeders to comply with a Code of Ethics set by the Klub. Since the klub’s inception members were encouraged to have their dogs x-rayed for hip dysplasia.
The rules for hip dysplasia state that:
- Dogs/bitches with a Grading of A1, A2, B1 can be bred to dogs/bitches with the same grading or that of B2, C1, C2.
- Dogs/bitches with a grading of B2, C1, C2 may only be mated to dogs/bitches with a grading of A1, A2, B1
Since January 1992, all Weimaraners are expected to comply with these regulations before a litter can be registered at Kusa.
Klub members are encouraged to show their dogs at KUSA shows, and we also host our own Open and Championship show in February and August respectively
Also, since a Weimaraner is first off a working dog, the Klub hosts an annual Shooting Ratings test in June, with training sessions in the two months before that. Klub members, and indeed all interested Weimaraner owners are welcome to bring their dogs for training on the training Sundays, and also so the dogs can be tested for Retriever and Shooting ability at the Shooting Ratings.

Open Show 2019
Our Judge will be Mrs Sue Faes
| Judge: | Mrs Sue Faes |
| Date: | 10 February 2019 |
| Venue: | Goldfields Kennel Club, Boeing Road, Bedfordview |
| Time: | Entries from: 9:00 am Judging commences: 10:00 am |
| Entry Fees: | Klub Members: R40 per dog Non-Klub Members: R50 per dog |
| Enquiries: | Yoan Bosch: 082 896 0378 |
This year we have an additional challenge in that a marathon race will be held at the Saheti school and a lot of the roads in the area will be closed. One road in particular will be the road in front of Goldfields, so to get into Goldfields, the bottom gate will need to be used.
There are several routes to the lower gate:
Option 1
This is the route a lot of people use, come in on the R24 towards Eastgate, take the Concorde offramp and then turn left into the first road and then immediately left again – follow this road until you get to Vand der Linde Road and drive over the R24 using the Van der Linde Road bridge. Normally one would turn right towards Goldfields, but instead you turn left and then at the boom turn right into Batten Road – follow Batten Road until its end and then turn right into Munday Avenue which you follow until you get to the bottom gate of Goldfields
Option 2
Come in on the R24 towards Eastgate, take the Concorde offramp and then turn left into the first road (Arbroath) and then turn right into Viscount Road. Then just before the entrance to Eastgate turn right into Bradford Road and go underneath the R24. The road turns into Rivier Road and you follow Rivier Road until you turn right into Munday Road. Then follow Munday road until you get to the Goldfields bottom gate
Option 3
Come in on the R24 and at the first traffic light turn right into Marcia Street. Then at the first traffic light at the Chinese market turn right into Ernest Oppenheimer Avenue. Turn right into Vernon at the BP garage and then immediately left into Boeing Road West. Then follow the road until you get to a boom on the left and turn into Batten Road – follow Batten Road until its end and then turn right into Munday Avenue which you follow until you get to the bottom gate of Goldfields
