Stop me!

Update: I’m not going to have a puppy my head has to rule my heart on this one. If I do one day get a Brittany, I want to give it the best possible start in life and a job to do - and for it to be a pleasure, with all the time in the world to give to them, and not a chore/necessity. I’m just not in the right situation for such a drivey dog rn. Plus - considering my next horse later this year/early next year. There are finite hours in the day and with a by-then-adolescent pup it just wouldn’t be feasible. Wahh

I think she still has a dog and a bitch available. If anyone likes the breed and is in the right situation for a pup I’d be happy to put you in touch - then I can live vicariously through you

I’d love to post a pic of a pup from her FB so you can see the torturous level of cuteness I’m dealing with, but as they’re not my pics, I won’t. Take it from me though, they are heart-meltingly gorgeous!

Sounds like the right decision as much as we all love to peer pressure each other into a horse/dog/ferret!

I’m going to imagine they’re similar to springers? Get a puppy! Can you take some annual leave for the first couple of weeks he/she would be home? There’s always ways and means. We were very stuck when we first got the boys, Aunty B wasn’t in a fit state, she’d always just had the older boys if we were both working. Fortunately, a mate stepped up til we found a walker/home visits started. Go on, do it!

Is the weather nice in Tenerife? Ve just been for a walk in the p!ssing rain, we’re all soaked!

They make springers look sedentary

I reckon this is a good choice, the Brittany's I have met are all bonkers and have stamina to burn, nice enough nature's but really do need direction and training and a job or ten.

Sensible choice (And I say that as someone with 5 Springers, 2 cockers and a pack of Mannies currently!!)

I’m not known for my sensible choices so I’m feeling quite proud of myself rn

They’re definitely staying on the list for “one day” though. If I ever get to a point in my life where I have enough time to do the breed justice!

 

[druid]

At least all mine aren't actually mine. One Springer is off to his owners soon after a year here, 2 cockers are UK bound.

Hope you find the right time in life for the Britt eventually!

Sounds like an excuse to me… we don’t judge here, y’know

They're here for training or running on...my name isn't on their paperwork!
