Scout - French Brittany

[George "Scott" Davis]

One of my bird dogs is a French Brittany, Won multiple field trails in the past and after three liters was neutered and just a bird hunting machine. Could you share the breeder and any knowledge of Scout's blood lines? Are you a member of the French Brittany Club?

John,
No problem with hijacking Scout’s thread for such a cute “Scout” of your own, in the tradition of “To Kill a Mocking Bird”. Especially with a first fly caught trout! I volunteered with the Boy Scouts for years and taught many young men to fly fish. It’s a wonderful thing you are doing. Both of our sons (all grown up) are Eagle Scouts and my wife and I agreed to give this dog that name because he was as squirrelly as a Cub Scout.

Ed,
Thanks for the note. The French Brittanys have become very popular and for good reason.

Hi George,
Just seeing your message. Scout came from the Lucky Seven Kennels in Payson, Utah. I have been unable to find any French Brittany Spaniel breeders here in Colorado, but there is one over next door in Kansas. Give me call at 720-610-5993 and we can talk pedigree. We will soon be UKC registered.
Thanks
- Doug

Big Sky Epagneul Gun Dog Club type: montanabreton.
The National French Club: ceb-us
Type: L'Adour Kennels

The Big Sky club is really active and are from multiple states. Their trials are usually in Montana, South Dakota or Minnesota. They are a great group and very active and hunting is their passion. Hang with this group and you'll be invited for some great bird hunting plus good discussion of dogs, shotguns, wine and Irish Whiskey. Group for years goes to Georgia for a plantation shoot.

Jules (my French Brit) is from the L'Adour Boodline line and her father "Clint" won the 2011 Euro World Field Trail (no sure if that's the correct tile). Clint was imported by a attorney and Clint floats between Georgia and Montana depending on the bird season.

I really like that color. He is a handsome one. During this past season I ran into another bird hunter who had an American Brittany. This one was liver and white and was also a fine looking dog.
