Thanks all!
Most of the skill was in the last three hundred years of dog breeders. The dog came with all he needed built in. I just learned how to run him. Ed, Joe Wood is still my shooting student. Craig is a new shooting student. I have many including Chuck Heald, Chuck Kribs, Daryl Halquist, Mike Lowery, etc... Best, Mike |

Thanks Russ.
Well my dogs are registered in the AKC as Brittany Gun Dogs (American Brittanys) and in the UKC as French Brittany Spaniels or Espagnuel Britain (SP?) They aren't quite as leggy as the American Britts. I have never had an American Brit. The French Brittany is what the American Brittany came from. Mine are usually natural retrievers, avid hunters of dead and wounded birds, laid back in the house and energetic in the field. The French Brittanys inlcude black and white dogs and dogs with black noses. NSTRA is amatuer. There is no prize money or puppy stakes. No paid handlers. Naturally it is not as competitive as the big money horseback trials. More like the American Trap Assocation and less like the Pro Golfer's Association Best, Mike |

Congratulations and thanks for the pictures. I was given a 7 mo. old brittany, legal name "Trigger Trouble". My wife calls him "Trigger or Trig". I have many names for him.
Most, like my wife's Trig, contain words with only four letters. But besides being "birdy" retrieving is HIS game. If I leave my boots, Kindlin wood, small tools etc. laying around then I'm retrieving. I have had to sneak behind him on and off for two days to find my left Muck boot so I could retrieve it. He is getting his PHD at Shady Grove Kennels & Preserve in Remmington VA. He has been there six days. We hope he is going well.....I have lost my phone. |
