Welcome to "All Things Brittany !"

"All things bright and beautiful, all things great and small, all things Brittany, the Lord God loves them all."
Our blog began 5 years ago while awaiting the birth of a litter of Brittany puppies. Early posts shared pregnancy confirmation, first movement of pups, whelping, development, weaning, and ongoing evaluations right up to the first day of the rest of their lives with their happy new owners. Eventually we discovered that a lot of people looked forward to the posts even when puppies were not involved. We then added more variety while keeping with the original purpose of the ATB blog, which is to provide updates about J&A's Brittanys in Acton, Maine. More photos and videos were posted in frequent, diary type journal entries. The writing became more transparent by sharing more openly about God, family, and the value of friendship. Blog posts now include personal stories, situations that challenge, thoughts about prayer, anectodes, and inspiration. Some may evoke joy and laughter while others share feelings of sadness and sorrow. ATB is "All Things Brittany" all things God, all things family, and all things friendship. All for the love of the dog, both given and received. And don't forget - the Brittany is first and foremost - a GUN DOG! Sincerely, John and Ann Short
