Product Description
Developed in France from working setters and spaniels to produce a hunting dog who would be a biddable, loyal and versatile companion, the Brittany has proven itself in both fields. Although bred for function, the Brittany is a natural beauty in his handsomely fringed coat and appealing expression. The breed s affinity for children and its affection and playful personality have made him a favorite choice as a family pet. For the owners who can provide this energetic dog with the activity, stimulation and training he requires, the Brittany will not disappoint. Written by one of the country s most respected dog show judges and authors, Richard Beauchamp, this book provides insightful chapters on the breed s history, characteristics and standard as well as puppy selection, grooming, health care and feeding. The new owner will welcome advice about puppy-proofing the home, preparing for the pup s arrival, housebreaking and preventing puppy problems. The book is not only well written and informative but also beautifully illustrated with over 135 color photographs. Helpful hints and important information are highlighted to provide easy access to everything the reader needs to know about life with a Brittany from puppyhood to the senior years.

Excellent Resource April 7, 2008
Cindee L. Miller (Adamstown, Maryland)
I recently adopted a seven year old Brittany Spaniel from The American Brittany Spaniel Rescue. I found the book to be full of great information on Brittanys. It was very helpful to me.
Comprehensive Guide for Brittany Owners November 5, 2006
Joseph C. Grappi (Walnut Creek, CA)
As the cover states the book provides a comprehensive guide for Brittany owners. It cleared up misconceptions about the beginning of the breed that I acquired from other "authoritative" sources. For any one interested in a highly energenic affectionate companion dog this book and contact with good examples of the breed will bring pleasure to your life.
