I'm looking for a bird dog and am considering a brittany, how are their (or
yours) temperment?
This Brit is my third, but first male. I think they're wonderful
dogs, which is why I keep getting them--and believe me, I had one hell
of a time trying to find a Brittany pup. The demand seems to exceed
the supply.
The three have had different temperaments, but not wildly different.
They are excellent family members. They are affectionate and they
love kids. They learn fast. I like the way they work close, not far
beyond shotgun range.
The only ones I have been around have been older dogs
well past their prime and energy.
My present Brit is 2.5, and still acts like a pup. Wants to play many
times a day. My previous Brit was hunting actively at age 12. She
could keep going as long as I could, and then some.
