Good for you Mike! There is nothing quite like puppy breath, enjoy it.
It does not look as though you chose another AWS, a Springer this time?

Hi Steve-
Brittany.
I'm in a rent house because of the house fire last November, and the landlord said no to a puppy. I should be in my new digs end of November, and the breeder is going to keep and train him til then. Drove down to Houston area today and back with the girlfriend to meet him and pay the balance. Hated to not take him home.

Glad things are working out for you since the fire, Mike. Getting a new pup is a sign that you are coping, and that life goes on. Beautiful pup. The girlfriend loves puppies too? Man, you are doing fine.

Anyone who said you can't buy happiness has never bought a new pup.

Love a new puppy. Any new puppy. Was at the "block party" this evening and a 12-14 week old lab was there. He was awesome. It's been 10 yrs and 1 month and 20 days since we had a new puppy on board. I'm gettin' the itch again.

Mike, great choice of pooch. But then with me it's like preaching to the choir regarding Britts..Gil

We have a nine week old cocker spaniel that is a real joy.....when she is asleep. Otherwise she is a perpetual motion machine! Sure a challenge for old folks. Whoever said puppies would keep you young didnt know what they were talking about. Right now she is curled up in my lap and appears to be an angel but after a little snooze it will be pandemonium. What a joy!

Cute little critter, for sure. Must be a French Britt from the colors? It will be an interesting transition from flushing to pointing dog. But going from a flusher to a French Britt should be a good choice. Best of luck!

I have run Springers for over 20 years and currently have a 9 and a 3 year old. Thinking about transitioning to pointing dogs in the future myself and have been looking at the Small Munsterlander breed. I sure do love those French Britts from what I have seen of them, beautiful dogs.
