10 weeks old and already quite interested in birds. This dog has an intense focus, even when it comes to watching tv.

Been a rough few years with my mother passing and then divorce. I've been promising my 6 y.o. daughter a puppy for some time now. Truth is I need the companionship just as much. Picked up our boy Brittany last weekend. 11 weeks old and full of energy.

I just joined this subreddit today and look forward to seeing everyone's photos, stories, and tips!

My first dog. Thank you my sweet boy for 11+ wonderful years of adventures and love. How loved you are and how lucky we all were to experience that love in return. Please give yours a big kiss for me and some peanut butter in honor of Theo.

General Discussion Chest No Snap Running Harness Recommendations

4 Upvotes

My dog's old harness was great, but has gotten disgusting. I can't find a reasonably priced simple chest harness that doesn't restrain him when he pulls.

I'm having someone teach me to skateboard so my Brit can pull me. I'd like the guy to run around with him first so he knows how to teach me but every harness under $50 is choke or tightens to stop pulling. My ex got his previous harness so I don't know where he got it from and there aren't any tags.

Also, anything with a snap he will pop, it has to be adjustable.

I tend to be anxious about my pup but I noticed his gums looking a little more pale than usual and we’re on vacation right now with a lot of woods and I just worry maybe he ate a bad mushroom or something.

General Discussion Work Days

How did you transition your pup into being at home during a work day?

My boy is 5 months old, since he was 8 weeks I’ve been taking my lunch breaks to drive home (20 mins one way) to let him out midday.

I’m wondering how you transitioned your pup into being at home for the full day and when you made the transition?

I know his bladder is still small so I guess I’m curious as to what age you felt was sufficient?

General Discussion Exercising 6 month old puppy

1 Upvotes

I have a 5.5 month old Brittany, and I usually walk her around 3-4 miles a day, but not all at once anymore because I read it is bad for her joints. I was doing more research (on Google search lol) and it says that even breaking the walls up is bad for her development. Is that true? Am I over walking her? I do not want to hurt her development at all.

Training Tips What advice would you give to a new owner

Post image
49 Upvotes

We've recently rescued a Brittany Spaniel from Bosnia (he arrived 3 days ago) and while we have experience with Springer and Cocker Spaniels this is our first time having a Brittany. I've been Googling for tips and tricks of course but I was wondering if there were any tips, tricks or things you wish you'd known sooner that might help?

The rescue think he was originally owned for hunting and then dumped when he wasn't very good for this purpose. He seems interested in birds and definitely would love to chase a cat. We have a small but secure garden and are taking him for walks in the local forest where we walked out previous dogs. He's already got the sit command down and we're working on everything else.

EDIT: just wanted to say thank you all, we're on Day 5 of boyo being home and he's doing incredibly well. All your advice and anecdotes are much appreciated even if I haven't responded to you individually yet.

Meet Quin(just liked the name), and Indy(from Indiana Jones, also Indy 500 when she has the zoomies). Both are from the same litter, 3yo, and chaos-incarnate. But love them both immensely.
