#10 Leaves, twigs and other things should be removed from the coat after the walk. If the dirt cannot be brushed out easily, the Brittany likes to be given a quick shower.
If you want to buy a Brittany, you will find a selection of breeders on the internet. However, animal welfare associations or associations that specialize in working with hunting dogs also occasionally offer Brittany Spaniels for sale.
In particular, appropriately oriented clubs can give tips on buying and keeping and often also put you in touch with a good breeder.
If you're looking for a breeder online, you may have to travel a long way to meet your new roommate. A reputable breeder will be happy to provide information on species-appropriate keeping.
Please avoid dubious breeders who only care about profit. A reputable breeder should belong to a recognized association and be able to provide proof of pedigree and information on the health of the parent animals.

Your Brittany Spaniel loves the water. If he was used to showering as a puppy, a shower is always a welcome change. Puppies should be introduced to showering slowly and in small increments.
#12 For a small dog, the shower tray and the shower itself can seem a little spooky at first. This fear can usually be taken away quickly in a playful way.
The average life expectancy of the agile Breton is 12 years. An age of up to 15 years is also quite possible. A healthy diet and species-appropriate husbandry, which correspond to the typical characteristics of the Breton, contribute to a long and healthy life.
