I live about 1/4 mile from Dan and he runs a great kennel and his results speak for themselves.  Super nice guy to deal with.

Had Dan work with my chocolate lab when she was a pup. I was deploying and knew i would be gone along time. When I came home he had her sit and tossed live birds at her. She didnt flinch..... I was pretty impressed. Today when i put her on that leather collar I bought from her sher is in the zone. I have heard alot of good about Dan and his kennel.

It was probably food allergies. They are called hot spots. Some dogs have them and are sensitive to the foods they eat. Our Chihuahua's get them if they eat the wrong type of food.

Ive heard very good things about Dan Dunfur.  But, if you have a brit you might look into taking it to Dave Walker in Idaho.  You won't find a better Brittany trainer in the U.S..  He used to campaign Brits on the Trial circuit and he is very, very good.

I had my GSP with Dan for three months of training back in 1998, and I was happy with what he did with him in that short time. I never did any more training after that, but if I would have had the money, I definitely would have taken him back to Dan. It would have been nice to have a more fully trained dog and to have more control, rather than just following a dog that is hunting where he wants, and how he wants. But my dog was only seven months old when I brought him to Dan, and I hadn't even seen him point anything yet. When I picked him up three months later, he was pointing birds and retrieving after they were shot.

I have Dunfer breeding in my dogs and have been around more of his breeding Its top notch breeding, Dan's accomplishments speak for themselves his dogs are very well trained he puts out effort that is required for a Clients hunting dog I have seen it first hand.. as for Allergies in dogs, food is the #1 cause carpet can cause allergies fleas and one that people don't no about is how your house is heated radiant heaters dry the air so bad that the dogs skin get so dry and then they can get a dermatitis from it. I would rule all those out and just talk about the dog as an individual before I blamed it on the Dunfur Kennels..I'm confident in the Dunfur pedigree and breeding program that's why I'm, going there Monday and leave one of my Bitches to be breed to one of is many field champions..

KF, it seems Dunfur is mostly a gsp trainer. Brits are total different ball of wax, consider what jetjockey said for your Brit.
