Our working groups & representatives
Within the IWK, working groups take on specific areas of responsibility. In each group, representatives of the member clubs work together on a particular topic – such as health, breeding, events, or international cooperation.
International cooperation and events
We promote exchange between the IWK member clubs, coordinate international events, and ensure up-to-date information on the clubs’ websites. Once a year, we organize a joint meeting of all representatives to strengthen cooperation and personal connections.

Exchange on health and genetics
We connect breeding officers internationally in order to identify diseases and genetic risks at an early stage and to develop joint measures. The goal is a healthy breeding base, transparent communication, and, in the long term, a shared IWK database for breeding information.

Cooperation in breeding, breed standard FCI
We review how breeding advice and breeding selection are carried out in the individual countries and ensure compliance with the FCI breed standard. This also includes topics such as crossbreeding with other breeds and genetic identity verification.

Working tests and shows (exhibitions)
The Weimaraner is a working dog. We compare the testing and breeding requirements of the member clubs, promote international exchange, and work toward common standards for performance tests and breeding approvals.

The problem of illegal breeding and circumventing breeding regulations
We take a stand against illegal and non-standard breeding practices. Together with the member clubs, we develop strategies to combat such practices and strengthen responsible breeding standards.
