Brittanys were bred as gundogs, and they definitely have birds on the brain. Although they’re often called Brittany Spaniels, the American Kennel Club dropped the word “spaniel” from this pointing breed’s name in 1982.
These energetic dogs are versatile family companions and hunting dogs who work more closely to hunters than other pointing breeds. If you can satisfy their high energy and exercise needs, this may be the breed for you!
