Thanks!! But there are days where I think any training has gone out the door with her.lol

Oh wow, they're sooo pretty!!!

Hello! Well, I am getting more and more excited as Pepper gets older.:) She's such a fun girl! She seems to be at some stage when we take her out where she'll encounter other dogs.. She puffs up and acts all big and bad until I bring her on up to the dog.lol Then she shows just how big and bad she i...

I experienced the same thing with Daisy Mae when she was younger. When I first got her for about 3 years she really didnt enjoy petting as much, as other said, always too much to do. She' come over kinda check your hands (for treats) then move on to something more exciting. Now that she's 5 (I can'...

Thnk you everyone for the replies.:) I think it might be age related too - or if not age then - what she's used to or comes to like. When she was young she was just plain old stand-offish. She had her own agenda and it didn't really include me. We had to teach her a command "closer" so she'd get clo...

Or can it just be my girl's thing? But she seems to not like the top of her head touched. It's kind of sad though because she's so soft there.
She's not very loveable still except when she's tired. Is that normal too?lol

Paint is beautiful!:)

Thanks again for letting me share! She was following me around today in our RV while I was stocking it up. Being it's a smaller area and I can watch her easily, I let her leash go and she'd just pick it up at the handle part and walk around.lol

Yep.. She likes to have the leash in her mouth all the time and just carry on with her business. If we drop our end, she'll even pick it up and just go on ahead.lol She'll also try and pick up her toys with keeping the leash in her mouth. :lol: I took a pic in case she ever stops..;) http://img.phot...

Britts are made to work all day, and then go out and do it again. If your dog is keeping up with you just fine now, then using your abilities as a gauge is probably fine...and he can probably still do more. Trail hiking, scrambling over rocks, wading streams, etc. They can do all that. If you're go...

Totally agree there..lol

I'd be happy to share more pictures as she grows since I'm constantly taking them. My kids are so happy for the break since the camera is aimed more at Pepper for now than just them.lol The pup is a really good girl except when she gets bitey and I can see her growing and changing almost daily. It's...

Thanks Cindy! Yeah... This is the last time I ever do the puppy stage again.. I even postponed my school this term when we got her. With her so young and also homeschooling two kids, it was more than enough. Adding in my classes would have done me in.lol

THanks dmedric!

Hello! New here and have been reading like crazy.:) Lots of great info here and I love it! We got a puppy in January and are loving her to pieces. She's a smart little thing and my hubby is over the moon with having a brittany. He grew up with them and is so thrilled to have one in the home once aga...
