Might be wrong but I think I recently read that Roger Borine either has a litter due soon or maybe on the ground now. Probably see him this weekend and I'll try to remember to ask him.

Just starting the search for future breeding's -  Brittany

Anyone got any leads?

Absolutely nothing against your breed of choice, but given what you have running around in the woods up your way have you thought about a Drahthaar? You'd get a bare knuckles brawler of a bird dog that isn't afraid to hunt.

We just bred my Brit.  If she took, we will hopefully have pups on the ground in July.  Not sure if we will have any available or not though. If she has a big litter, we might sell one or two.  The sire is last years RuNC and currently the #1 AA Brit in the country.  My female's not too shabby either, and her littermate is currently the #1 SD Brit in the country.  We are crossing our fingers she took.  She only got bred once because she kept trying to kill the sire when they were trying to get her bred.

keep me in mind,  I might need one still or I've got a brother that might be ready.

do they cover ground like a brit?   

I dunno,  it took me quite a while to transition from training labs to training a brit.  Not sure if I want to figure out yet a different breed.

What's your definition of ground coverage? Not all Brittanys are equal in that regard. Drahthaars aren't known for extreme range.

If you want hellfire and brimstone ground coverage look at English Pointers.

Not sure yet.  My trainer bred the same sire a week earlier and that dam is showing.  He also has a litter that was born in May on the ground.  Those pups have pretty good lineage as well.

Kfhunter,

They aren't Brittanys, but if you mainly hunt grouse and want a dog with some wheels, I would not hesitate to tell you to look at this guy's dogs. If he has any pups left they would be money well spent to have shipped out here imo.

Nothing wrong with Brittanys and if that's the way you want to go do so. But Pointers are rather under represented out here and the coverdog breedings are worth checking out.

Perhaps a vet check is in order? The walnuts we call pups can be felt through palpatation with experianced hands.Seems I recall you used artificial chemical inductuion of heat.

We did bring her in, and if I had her home, I'd take her to the vet.   But she's already in SD for summer camp, and the closest vets aren't very close.  She will either start to show, or she won't, and we will try again later.  We wanted to breed her twice, but she wouldn't stand, and getting them locked up was nearly impossible.   I'm still optimistic since it's been just over a month, but when the second week of July rolls around, if she isn't showing, it's back to roading and getting her ready for the fall trials and Nationals.
