I am looking to purchase a Brittany within the next six months and am looking for some info and advice. This is my first field dog and have a some questions regarding what to look for in a pup, and how well they respond to training. +/-? Any info will help. I' ve been doing some research on the web but find that first hand knowledge and real-world experience by others to be helpful. This will also be a family pet.

Any good breeders in the Mid_ Atlantic region (Maryland)? I know of someone who has breed them in the past, but I' m not sure of the history, and from what I' ve been told good dogs come from good bloodlines.

Thanks
