John all five of mine are house broken. Depending upon the mood of my wife we usually have three in the house with a couple living outside in the "doghouse" (after they have displeased the Alpha female). My friend David Mays says French Brittanys are "out of the box hunters" and I certainly agree with that.
I switched to French Birttanys eight years ago because of their house dog qualities. I found them to be excellent hunters and haven't regretted the change. And I think it is great that you rescued that beauty and she is living the life she was designed for. She looks a lot like my Belle, the second dog from the left in the pack lineup.
I am not a breeder. Most of my dogs are out of or from Fred Overby's kennels of Montana and Georgia or Glen Raef here in Amarillo. But I always like to talk about birddogs. I will try to PM you.
Best,
Mike
