I think a Brittany would be ideal but then I'm very prejudiced. Companionship is considered essential to the breed. (AKC) In fact Britts I've known crave human companionship and do best living in the house with you. They have a strong desire to please and for that can be a bit sensitive to correction, be gentle. In fact my Larry Britt would go his favorite corner in fear he did something wrong if Dad and I started talking loud on a subject up for debate.

Passing along advice from a cousin who breeds field trial Britts, be leery of a Britt from a field trial line. Field trial dogs are bred to be more energetic and can be a little on the hyper side for a companion dog. American Brittany Rescue can be a resource, besides giving a good home you get some history of the dog.
