New addition: French Brit puppy

[Firelight]

We made a whirlwind trip down to Arizona last week to pick up our new puppy and even squeezed in a little hunting while there. This little gal is "Belle" (I know, a very over-used name but I think everyone needs a Belle at some point in their life and the ones I have met tend to be really good dogs.). She is cute and smart although she sure is more active than the ryman setter pups I have gotten used to. She almost evens up our French:English ratio of dogs.





Belle loves "grandma" our 14 yr old setter.



The scenery in Arizona makes for a beautiful day hunting. We managed to find some birds but we failed to put any hurtin' on the population. It was fun to get away though for a few days.....returned home to a blizzard the next day.

And she has already been pre-trained on the "frog-leg pose." Awesome pics and a pretty little pup.

"Belle" Good looking EB and the name has a nice ring to it!

I'm picking up a French Brittany later this spring and have been wundering what will happen when I introduce her to our current house princes a 7 year old Gordon Setter. I see your setter sleeping next to the pup, any suggestions for first introductions?

Thanks.

Whatsnext - Belle is from Sun Country Bretons. Corey x Ellie, both confirmed and both have MH, the Rice's work hard with their dogs.

Grousetter - these EB pups are really lively, my setters are a bit overwhelmed by her at this point. Right now we keep them pretty much separate and will ease her in. The setter in the pic is 14-1/2 and it seems that all puppies adopt her as grandma and love her. Keep an eye on your Gordon to see his/her reaction and go slow. The big dogs often don't realize how easily they can hurt these little whirlwind puppies. We use a crate to give the big dogs a break at times during the day. Pup will grow and they can all be together before we know it.

My pups grandparents are rosie and titus from sun country bretons, when I get another french britt they are one of the breeders I will try to get a pup from. Congrats on the new pup and keep us updated I am very curious to see how the pup does.
