HEMI: 12 Week Old Brittany Puppy Fun In the Field

(Pause the PlayList to the right before viewing, there is sound!)

12 week old Hemi's early fun field training continues. This time he's let off the check cord with his bell and runs free with very little guidance. A Bobwhite Quail lies in the grass awaiting discovery. At this point in time young Hemi knows his name and when off leash will usually come when called. He is accustomed to wearing a bell collar in the field. Little britches has casually been introduced to birds. He has sat observing the sights, sounds, and scents of our finished gundgogs via several trips to the field with them. The only interaction has been when the big dogs come back to cool off. This video shows the result of our efforts in taking things very slow as Hemi successfully points the bird and continues on with enthusiasm. A major milesone with no need to rush things from this point on. He clearly has been awakened and we look forward to yet another exciting journey with a Brittany from our breeding program! We enjoy a casual approach to gundog training which pays off in the fall during bird hunting season. And besides, Hemi is CUTE CUTE CUTE! Hope you really enjoy this, I know we sure did and DO!  Take care and God bless you and yours as always, John, Ann and All Things Brittany
