all great suggestions, I appreciate your words of wisdom, my patience with pups apparently has grown, it was the first night with a new whining pup in the kennel, we let carry on until it gave up, instead of bringing it to bed. Exciting to hear the natural tendencies of these Britts would...

TY!

Thanks, she is a Liver Roan, out of this litter it appears he has 2 Liver roan females (one left) and one Orange/ white male left. Not sure who Elsie was in line behind us. He just had a litter I believe he found homes for. A couple weeks ago. This breeder won’t let you near the kennels or...

Just brought her home today 7.5 weeks old . Two things, before I get blown up, that’s a piece of dog food, not a turd and secondly a cardboard box will not be her kennel, just using to create some solo time.

Very sorry to hear. It’s never easy, sounds like you were blessed for a large number of your hunts. 11 years and 160+ birds, sounds like the two of you made a pretty successful team for sure!

Thanks for sure, planning on remote launchers and some pigeons to start with, since I would have control over the release. Due to work schedules sadly a preserve may be the in between between pigeons and a launcher and actual hunting season. Do plan on Minnesota wild birds at some point this...

Sound like the only way he could have been better, is if he cleaned your birds and supplied the after the hunt refreshments. 😆

Damn! That’s a pretty hot deal! Went through Iowa city Sheel’s today, was able to shoulder two 20 over and under’, an weatherby Orion and a savage 555, honestly they both fit, but , not I want to go down that path, so didn’t pull the trigger. They did have a slightly used 555 16 for less than...

Wow, try to help someone and it bites you in the ass. That sucks for you, but unfortunately also for the decent people you may have had the opportunity to help going forward, since most prudent people would lean towards not making that mistake again.

Great story and most definitely well written. For the record, I am more than likely a poorer hunter, with less than honorable writing skills. My father, was a much greater reader of hunting encounters than an experienced of hunting encounters. I recall my father’s wing master of the 70’s...

You better not be, I’m about 12 years older and should be picking up my first bird dog in a couple weeks

Going to try to keep it closer than a big runner if possible….we will see.

My wife is retired and she has Al way been a big walker, taking our pups on walks. So it won’t be in a kennel for more than a few hours at a time, I wouldn’t expect. In the past I’ve kind of roughhoused with my dogs, however after all the reading and learning of recent, I gather this is why our...

Wisconsin…or should I say Wiz Konnnn Sinnnnn, seems like every time I tells someone they say that back and laugh at my pronunciation, but I hear it no differently😆 I have his DVD’ and am reading the book now!

Not that your implying, but For the record I didn’t choose a Brittany because they were easy, one of the reasons was my understanding they are inherently a good bird dog, and good in the home, yeah ours will be a house pet as well. FWIW I agree on the breeder. The breeder I'm getting mine from...
