What a joy it is to bring a Brittany puppy home! These soft and energetic bundles seem to never get tired. That’s why it’s important to start your puppy training early, as Brittanys require lots of daily mental and physical activity. They love to please their humans, so training with treats, pats, and praise will go a long way and they will quickly get through their awkward puppy phase, establishing an unbreakable bond. Reward your puppy with a variety of tasty treats so that they stay interested, and save the best ones for dedicated training sessions. It’s also important to socialize your Brittany puppy as much as possible to people, animals, and sounds as to avoid developing shyness or skittishness.
Healthy puppies will have clean ears with no signs of discharge, redness, inflammation or pungent odour. If the puppy is aggressively scratching or pawing their ear, tilting their head or excessively flipping their head, it may also be a sign of discomfort. Breeds with floppy ears are more prone to infection or disease.
