    ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
    The Brittany is considered a versatile hunting dog, but it shines when it comes to upland bird hunting. If you're looking to chase a variety of upland birds from pheasants to chukar to grouse, a Brittany would make the perfect pointing and retrieving partner.
    Although some Brittanies take to the water, it isn't a part of their common repertoire. So don't be disappointed if you don't end up with an A+ duck dog. That's just not their typical jam. And they lack the double coat found in many retrieving breeds, leaving them more open to the elements in wet conditions. They do typically have a flat or wavy coat, and they do well with a weekly brushing.
    Brittanies don't have the same issues that many other pet-focused breeds do, as hunting bloodlines remain predominant in the breed. But it's important to have pups checked for hip dysplasia. Other health issues that occasionally come up in the breed are hyperthyroidism and epilepsy. So ask your breeder for thyroid and hip exams prior to bringing your new pup home.

    Thank you for this great video! We have a Brittany, and she’s a great hunter. She points, retrieves, and swims. What sets Brittanys apart from other upland dogs is their size. They’re nice and small. But they’re hunting machines. Small but mighty. They also have more dual championships than any other breed.

    I’ve had britts my whole life. Britt, beau, belle, Beatrice and brandy. Belle just left is at the age of 19. They are fierce hunters and even fiercer family members. They are in a league of their own when it comes to love and skill. We’ve come up with the term OBADS for the orange ones. Orange Brittany attention deficit syndrome. They are always the more neurotic ones!! Liver and whites are incredibly affectionate. Yes they are not duck dogs. They like to move!!!

    Brilliant video Eric ….I had to get a shock collar for my Brittany to reinforce the recall otherwise I’d have a heart attack trying to keep up with him..Only ever shocked him two times then he knew after the whistle or bleeps to return and always did so.He pointed under a peregrine falcon and it was exciting but the game season would go too fast.

    • @deerhost
      @deerhost Před 2 lety +1

      Don’t apologize or be afraid about using the training color. It’s the only way to keep a dog safe, and have him come back 100% of the time. Most people don’t realize that when we use a training collar the stimulation is so low the dog barely feels it. It’s just a cue on the dogs neck to signal him to return or whatever your training into him.

  • @shug2795
    @shug2795 Před 3 lety +2

    Great video! I would add that the greatest difference between field trial Brittanys and hunting Brittanys is that trial dogs must work more independently of the owner/handler. It is expected that a competitive pointing dog will work at extreme range as a result of this independence. I add that my hunting dogs perform exactly the same whether trialed or hunted. Some folk seem to think that hunting wild birds promotes dogs that break on either the flush or shot. Simply put, that is a reflection of their training/trainer rather than their ability as a properly trained hunter. NO, there is no advantage in having your hunting dog break on the retrieve. This is a fallacy sourced from hunters that put shooting ahead of their dog's entry level performance. The BEST retrievers stand steady and mark the downed bird(s). then, they are sent to retrieve. They are also not going to run through a covey subsequent to a hunter shooting at a few early flushing birds.
    It is MUCH safer for your dog to be completely steady around shotguns too.

    I have trained hunted Brittaies for 50 years. AKC be damned, EB are a separate breed, and different hunting style. AB (American Brit) hunts farther out, EB (French Brittany)hunts closer. Either one will take and birds, and small game very well. They are also used on larger game up to boar. I love hunting Pheasant with Brits.

    Those are American Brittanys, different from the Epagneul Breton (French brittany). Epagneul Bretons come in multiple colors, are generally smaller, hunt closer, and have black noses instead of pink. Both breeds are excellent hunters, but the Americans were bred to have more range.

      @@justinjeffries1554 Darnit, I misspoke! Sorry! Some Brittanys are born with a so called bobtail, if one of their parents were also a bobtail, but if you cross a bobtail Brittany to another bobtail, the puppies that inherit the bobtail gene from both parents will die in the womb. Also, the natural bobtail might not be considered to be as beautiful as a docked tail. So most Brittanies are born with a long tail. In many countries the tails are traditionally docked. This happens early in their life and is done by cutting the tail off or wrapping a tight band around the tail to make it fall off. Docking is illegal in some countries.

    Question for you... I got a Brittany after I was "interested" in any kind of hunting. I say that with quotation marks to emphasize that I have always been interested in hunting but never got to experience it. My dad was a huge hunter and fisher but unfortunately I never got to really go on any trips with him. That being said, I have my Brittany, and first and foremost he will be a companion to me, but what would be the easiest way to get him, and me, into the sport? I want to give him more purpose than just a pet. I want him to feel accomplished after a days work.
