No. Brittanys shed and, as a result, release pet dander into your home. Dander is the cause of most pet-related allergies.
Brittanys are often born with short tails, though sometimes they are born with tails longer than the four-inch maximum allowed in the AKC breed standard. In these cases, owners who want to show their Brittany will have the tail docked to four inches.
Brittanys have spaniel heritage, but they tend to hunt more like pointers and setters. Spaniels flush birds out from hiding for the hunter, while pointers and setters point or stand stock still in the direction of the prey to alert the hunter to their location.
Yes. Brittanys were bred to retrieve on land and from the water, and love to splash in the water to bring back a bird or a toy.
Brittanys are known to be hyperactive sometimes. Most often this occurs with owners who aren't able to meet the exercise demands of this high-energy dog. Brittanys don't tend to be hyper when they are kept engaged with 'work' and have ample opportunities for exercise.
