Some good points above. Steps that may need to be taken: "Whoa" training, an essential for an upland dog's safety and his master's happiness afield. I leash walk my dog every morning and teach and practice whoa during the walks. I train to whoa on both "whoa" and a short whistle note so as to avoid speaking while afield if possible. I think putting the dog on some kind of lead initially is essential to whoa training, maybe with a spike collar. You might put the e-collar on the dog while whoa training and tone or vibrate him simultaneous with whoaing. Once the dog is 90% whoa trained, use the e-collar to enforce it while afield; first a tone and then immediately followed by a shock if the tone is ignored. Following these guidelines I have had excellent control over my brittanys.
