Brittany Information
Brittany Description:The origin of the Brittany lies in the province of Brittany, France. However, the exact origin of the dog is unknown. It is believed to be a result of crossbreeding between the White Setter and Orange Setter. Other theories suggest that it might have descended from the Welsh Springer Spaniel. In the olden days, the breed was primarily used as a gundog for hunting small game and birds. Also called Brittany Spaniel in some parts of the world, it was first recognized by the AKC in 1934. |
Brittany Care & Grooming:The Brittany sheds little hair. Its coat needs to be brushed at least 3-4 times a week to maintain a healthy looking coat. It should be bathed only when necessary and must be dried properly after each bath. Its eyes, ears and teeth should be cleaned properly to avoid any infection. The hair around its eyes, ears and paws, and nails should be trimmed regularly. Its floppy ears tend to trap moisture in the ear canal and get infection often, so special care should be taken to clean its ears regularly. |
Brittany Health Problems:The Brittany is a healthy breed with some health issues like hip Dysplasia, Epilepsy, Ear infection etc. |
