Wouldn’t be a FT in the PNW without some (or a lot) of rain. 🤣 Red was the color of the weekend with Sassy placing secong in both the Open Derby and Amateur Derby at the Oregon Brittany Club FT. Thank you to the hard working club members that put on the trial and to judges Jason Sanko, Rick Axtell and Bryan Adams for the placements.

A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.

She did it! New Dual Champion!🎉🎉

Skye laid down an impressive run at the Washington Brittany Club’s trail winning a 5 point major in rainy and less than ideal conditions to finish her FC/DC (pending AKC confirmation). Thank you Burchett Bird Dogs, Bob, Valerie, Jim and Leslie for all the support over the years with her and pushing Ben to keep at it! Thank you judges Laura Myles and AnnaMaria Marchiconne for awarding Skye this win.

American Brittany Club Western Futurity, IEBC, and the WBC Field Trials in Ritzville, WA made for a fun filled weekend with friends, and a great introduction to field trials for our Skye x Oudi pups.

Campbell’s Sorry, Not Sorry “Sassy” placed 3rd in the Gun Dog Stake at the ABC Western Futurity.

Campbell’s What Can Brown Do For You “Bubba” placed 3rd in the Amateur Walking Derby at the IEBC FT.

As a breeder we strive to improve on each breeding and produce dual quality Brittanys and these two are on their way.

10!! I cannot believe you are 10 and how time has flown! You will always will be my favorite, the one who cemented my love for showing, won a national (BSCC), and took on the challenge of being campaigned when others didn’t believe you had it in you. You are a true showman with a zest for being in the ring to this day, shining as a juniors dog and making an occasional appearance in the veterans ring. But most importantly, you are my perfect pet, couch snuggler and ruler of the house.

In the end you only get to keep the memories made.❤

The rainbow bridge got the best boy there was earlier this week. Odin was the first of the pack of Norse god named Brittanys, got us started on this crazy journey in the dog world, and was Ben’s go to hunting buddy. He never loved the games, and could be a Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde in the ring and field, but achieved so much more than just being our pet and my mom’s pet these past few years. Enjoy all the birds up there and hanging out with Loki, buddy. You will be greatly missed.

The following is copied and reposted and is good advice.

NEW PUPPY AND ANY AGE NEW DOG OWNERS ...…….
As puppies head to their new homes I wanted to touch base on a common issue that breeders come across with new owners.
Realistic Expectations
You see the breeders pictures and videos and The pups are all social. They are quiet in the pen. The breeder shows you videos of them being totally relaxed, happy, playful. All looks amazing and you bring your puppy home.
Then reality hits. The puppy may cry in the crate for the first few nights making you tired and agitated. The happy social puppy is refusing to greet the half dozen overly excited friends you invited over to see your new puppy. Or the overly excited playful children you have at home. The puppy refuses to walk on a leash. Many are wondering how did my perfect puppy turn into a nightmare.
So let’s discuss realistic expectations of when a puppy goes home. First of all the puppy has been in the breeders home since birth. They had their mother and often littermates. They had their routine, were taught expectations and were completely in their comfort zone.
Now suddenly they are taken to a totally new environment. Picture yourself being dropped into an unknown country, often in a different part of the world. You know only a few words of their language. Different trees, animals, smells, temperature and people. Now in the middle of this we are switching up your routine, decide to have a party with people you don't know, and ask you to do jobs you have no idea about. Overwhelming to say the least.
This is what every puppy goes through when going to their new home. Stress manifests in different forms. From not eating, reluctancy to play and greet people. Being apprehensive at the vet’s office or as strangers reach for them. Diarrhea, vomiting and depression can occur.
So what can you as a new owner do to help your little one acclimate?
- most puppies take 3-4 weeks to acclimate to their new home. Repeat after me THREE to FOUR WEEKS sometimes even Longer! Not a 1-2 days. I can’t stress this enough about how much time is needed for a dog or puppy to feel comfortable in their new home!
- limit guests during the first week. We understand you are excited to show off your new baby but they need time to adjust. Plan on waiting 1-2 weeks before inviting people over
- ask guest to sit on the ground and let the puppy approach them. No squealing and grabbing the puppy
- set up a good routine
- restrict the puppy to a small area of the house. This not only reduces them being overwhelmed but also allows you to watch them
- don’t expect a 8-13 week old puppy to walk on a leash. Instead work at home with a leash where they are comfortable. Let them drag the leash, use treats to encourage them to walk with you
- if your puppy is refusing to walk give them time. My first trips to town with puppies a walk around a small block took 1 1/2 hours. We only move when they initiate the movement as they need time to take in the different environment
- understand your puppy needs time to see you as family. Expecting an immediate bond is unrealistic
- train your puppy. This not only helps you to bond but the puppy to look to you for direction and input
-Children are also big stressors to tiny fragile puppies, please keep an eye on puppy at all times when around children.
- lastly be patient. Don’t declare “omg there’s something wrong with this dog”. Nothing occurs overnight. Outings should be planned at puppy speed. So while you might imagine a fun walk around the lake in reality your puppy might only be able to handle walking a short distance that day.
Most outings for me take a long time, as I am often just standing still as the puppy cautiously explores the new environment. Patience is key!
Remember if the puppy was wonderful at the breeder’s house but now is struggling, you as the owner, need to help the puppy adjust which takes time, patience and training. Have realistic expectations and give the puppy positive experiences. Each puppy is an individual, don’t compare your current puppy to past pets and judge their behavior based on how another dog handled things. Lastly, try to see thing’s from a puppy’s perspective and adjust situations accordingly.
