We have a new Brittany pup arriving on 12/21. A Brit has been on my wish list for as long as I can remember and the time is right. I would like to hear some first hand accounts on any of the quirks with Brit’s. Everything I read suggests they respond very well to positive reinforcement, and are very sensitive to any sort of harsh commands. We will be crate training, as I have with all of my pups before him. I already have a good supply of various Kong type chew toys, as well as harder nylar type chew bones.
I’m not much of an upland hunter. We do have some partridge hunting, and limited pheasant around here, and it would be great to spend some days afield with a bird dog. So besides from being just a pet, I’m looking to do at least rudimentary hunting training.
