From Our Litter By
FC CHAMPION CHATTAHOOCHEE X CARTER'S HOT HONEY 

 

As a veterinarian owned/operated kennel, we take great pride in ensuring our puppies get the very best start to life by beginning socialization of our puppies on the day of their birth.  We build a strong bond with every single puppy prior to their ears and eyes opening so they experience the tenderness, love, and care the human touch provides before they can see and hear us.  We earn their affection and trust in the early developmental stages through bottle feeding once a day so they are drawn to us in the same way they are drawn to their mother through feeding.  We get them accustomed to being held in our arms, tummy up, to communicate human dominance, rub their feet so they are not touchy in this area as they grow to make nail trims easy as they mature, and gently open and close their mouths so any future medication dosage is not a battle to be won. We massage their ears to make cleaning time simple and efficient and talk to them to get them used to our voices.  At approximately 2 weeks old, their eyes and ears finally open and their hearing and vision becomes sharper with every passing day.  At 3.5 weeks old, their teeth begin emerging and they slowly learn to stand and walk. We begin them on a premium quality food at this age as nutrition is the foundation of a healthy dog.  As they continue to grow we expand their horizons and introduce them to a wide variety of sounds and situations so they transition easily to their new homes when the time comes.  Puppies are released to their new homes between the 7.5-8.5 week old mark, which is determined by the age of which the litter hits specific milestones and also when the mother is fully ready to ween them.  We always let nature take it's natural course and we will not release puppies until the mother has decided it is officially time for her babies to be without her.  Together with the mother, we will make this determination ourselves and we will not be influenced by new owner's schedule demands.  It is important that we listen to the mother and follow the mother's lead and not the requests of the new families.  When the mother is ready to ween them, she no longer requests to visit them and no longer allows them to nurse.  Puppies are introduced to the basics of crate training, bathing, nail trims, and how to heel (stay with us when walking) in preparation for your preference of collar/leash or harness training.  At the time of release, puppies will be nearing the age to be mentally ready for the early stages of puppy training.  Please keep in mind that our voices and our environment is completely different than your voice and your home and environment.  When taking a new puppy home, you will need to allow time for the puppy to adapt to their new surroundings and be patient and understanding with them as they have never met you and have never been in or around your home.  To them, you will be a completely new person that they have never seen, heard, touched, or licked.  They have only been with us at our home and we are "their people." You will need to show them how you wish for them to behave as they slowly learn your voice and the commands you are wishing to teach them or remind them of that they learned while they were with us.

​

Pedigree is extremely important, no matter what your aspirations are for your puppy.  Our litter pedigrees are full of champions in the early generations of the puppies which helps guarantee their soundness, as people do not spend vast amounts of money to campaign dogs in events that aren't healthy or have difficulty learning.  We have planned this exceptionally high quality litter with expectations of producing highly versatile puppies that will succeed in any environment and activity.  Our focus is on producing elite quality hunting dogs that heavily bond with their humans, are incredibly intelligent, highly sensible, biddable, and are able to adjust their energy level to different situations.  Our puppies are extremely easy to train with an eagerness to learn which makes everything from housebreaking to learning specific commands fun for all.  These important features are the foundation of a superior quality dog that will succeed and be satisfied doing whatever their people enjoy doing - whether it is training for hunting competitions or companion plantation hunting, agility events, conformation events, service/therapy animal needs, or a constant, well-mannered companion for neighborhood walks, snuggling by the fire, or catching up on your favorite television show on the sofa.  Of all the hundreds of different dog breeds on the planet, we can't imagine owning any other breed than the Brittany for our family.  One dog can meet the individual needs of each and every one of us and it is remarkable how versatile they are.

​

We strive to find the right family for each puppy, which includes an evaluation of the temperament, attitude and energy level as well as physical qualities to ensure the best home for each puppy.  Puppies come with a complete 26 month health guarantee against congenital genetic defects. Our sires and dams undergo breed specific health tests that they must meet and/or exceed prior producing a litter of puppies.  All dewclaws will be removed, tails will be docked, and they will be up to date on all vaccinations and dewormer.  We do ship puppies within the continental United States via airline at the age of 8 weeks old.  Prices do vary depending on the airline used.  We generally fly puppies out of the Atlanta, GA (ATL) airport and generally are able to secure direct flights to most locations.  If we are able to use Delta or American Airlines, all-inclusive pricing for airline transfers are $515.00 which includes booking, health certificate, airline approved travel kennel, food and water bowls, plus the airfare.   We are also able to arrange for ground shipping for door-to-door transportation.  Ground shipping costs will vary by location. 

​

When you are ready to take the next step and move forward with our kennel for your next four-legged family member, we kindly ask that you compete the puppy questionnaire/application that can be accessed using the link above or through the contact us drop down menu.  If you have difficulties locating the application please feel free to contact us for assistance.  We do accept early deposits in the amount of $100 to be added to the reservation list for first selections upon the birth of the litter.  We also accept deposits in the amount of $250 (or) up to 1/3rd of the total puppy cost for available puppies that have been born until they are ready for homes.  We will respond to your puppy questionnaire/application with complete deposit details and additional information and details should you be approved for purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

QUESTION:  The puppy looks fat. Why does it look fat? Is it always going to be fat?

ANSWER:  Have you ever heard the saying that the camera adds 10lbs? That is true for puppies. too.  Animals on video or in pictures always look more plump than they look in person. Additionally, puppies are actually fed here.  We are a veterinarian owned kennel. We feed our puppies and purposely ensure they are a healthy body weight before going to their new homes. When they leave our kennel, they will drop weight immediately due to home change and stress which causes them to not eat. A healthy weight here before they leave ensures they over the home change hump and come out of it still healthy.  Skinny or underweight puppies have a higher likelyhood of becoming sick due to the stress of a home change.  Skinny puppies are ugly, in our opinion, and are an indication of the breeder not feeding them like they should or possibly indicative of the puppy being sick or having another condition that may affect weight - like having parasites.  All puppies naturally start leaning up around the age of 12-16 weeks old as they mature. Human kids are generally pudgy for the first 1-2 years (a least ours were) and then naturally lean up as they transition to the toddler stage.  Like human kids, young puppies less than 12 weeks old are pudgy, too, while in our care, and then lean up naturally.  Being plump while here while still in the young puppy stage is a good thing.  YES! They will ALL lean up.  You can also manually control food intake by feeding the puppy less food to reduce the weight if you want to speed up the process of leaning up if the puppy's weight bothers you when you take the puppy home.  HOWEVER! PUPPIES IN OUR CARE WILL BE PUDGY ON PURPOSE while they are under our care.

​

QUESTION: That puppy doesn't look as big or as active as some of the other puppies. What's wrong with it?

ANSWER: Is the puppy you are comparing to the same age as the other puppy you are referring to?  Huge strides are made EACH week between the ages of 5-12 weeks old.  A 5 week old puppy and an 8 week old puppy are not going to be the same size, have the same confidence, or have the same activty level. Older puppies are more confident and bigger and more active than younger puppies. That's simply how it works. Consider the differences between a kindergarten student and a 4th grade student.  Puppies will only get bolder, more confident, more active, and prettier as the transition from the newborn/toddler phase.  Generally, if you like a 5 week old puppy, you are going to LOVE that same puppy at 8+ weeks old and older.  Also consider other circumstances. Not all videos are done at the same time. Colder or hotter weather affects how puppies respond.  Are our kids tired of running around in the yard with the puppies? If they are, the puppies don't look as active because our kids aren't as active to encourange the puppies to be more active.  Did I have to wake a puppy up from a nap to take the video? If you are wanting a very active puppy or a puppy that isn't as active, ask us which puppies would be a good fit for you. Be truthful in the application so we can learn more about your needs and preferences to enable us to offer puppies that will be a great fit for your family.

​

QUESTION: I only want a puppy with blue eyes. Do your puppies have blue eyes?

​

ANSWER:  As long as you pick the puppy up prior to it being 8-9 weeks old, you will have a blue eyed puppy as all puppies are born without pigment in their eyes. Eyes without pigment are blue.  As puppies age, the pigments in the eye slowly form and they change from blue to hazel or amber.  Blue eyes are short term only. An adult brittany will not have blue eyes unless there is a unique genetic condition/issue that causes eyes devoid of pigment.

​

QUESTION: I really like one of the puppies you have but I want the puppy to have more orange fur or more liver fur than it has right now. Will the puppy grow more big spots?

ANSWER: No, the predominate markings of the puppy are set.  They do have little freckles that may appear between 5-9 weeks old, but the larger spots will not change and the puppy will not "grow" more big spots. We encourage you to look past the markings on puppies. Once a puppy reaches adulthood, the SHAPE of the dog is what people see instead of only the markings, like with puppies.  It's strange to us that people generally only look at the markings when selecting a puppy and not the actual conformational quality of the puppy. We look at body shape and not the markings when we are evaluating puppies. If you have a conformationally correct dog, you will have a GORGEOUS dog no matter what the markings are. Think of a beautiful person you know.  If you changed the person's hair color or skin color, will that person still be beautiful? The answer is YES, because the SHAPE of the person's features are what makes the person beautiful.  If the markings on a puppy are what you consider PERFECT...but if the shape of the dog isn't pretty, the dog, as an adult, will not be as pretty as a dog who is built beautifully but doesn't have perfect markings. It is the SHAPE of the dog that affects visual appeal when adulthood is reached and it is the markings that become irrelevant.

​

QUESTION: I don't want to have to train my puppy to respond to basic commands. Can you keep it and train it for me and allow me to pick the puppy up after basic command training is complete?

ANSWER:  We do not offer this service and encourage you to really think about why you want a puppy. We don't think you need a puppy right now if you are asking us this question. We do have trainers that we can place you in contact with if you prefer to not do the work yourself.

\

QUESTION: Why is there one puppy that is left out of this litter? Why is this puppy still available? Why didn't anyone purchase it? What's wrong with it?

​

ANSWER:  This question makes ZERO sense to us. Seriously, it's like asking why did God decide to paint the sky blue and the grass green? We don't always understand why people pick one puppy over another puppy, but THEIR choices DO NOT affect the quality of puppies that ARE available at this moment.  The better questions is, do you like the puppy?  It's up to date on age appropriate veterinary care, vaccinations and preventative treatments. The puppy has an outstanding pedigree that is full of some of the top ranking and most decorated dogs in breed history.  The puppy has simply been loved by us a little longer than usual. As they age, we also start working on basic life skills, like walking on a leash. If you choose an older puppy, you're simply getting a head start on training and veterinary visits while also getting a very well socialized puppy that has some basic training underneath it's belt. Cheaper puppies generally sale first and the pick of the litter quality puppies tend to stay longer due to pricing. Older puppies that remain in our care have simply been loved by us a little longer than usual. Why do people think something is wrong if there is a puppy over 8 weeks old on the website or there is only one puppy left in a litter? We have absolutely no clue why people think this way because it makes no sense to us. We could have the most beautiful brittany to have graced the earth available for purchase, but if it is the last puppy in a litter, people won't purchase it. Is there something wrong with the dog? No, there is nothing wrong with the dog.

​

QUESTION: Do your dogs hunt? Are they trainable? Why does a high end pedigree matter if I don't plan to hunt?

​

ANSWER: We encourage you to read the information on the home page as well as review the information on our adult dogs and other website details. The pedigrees detail the accomlishements of the dogs in the pedigree to learn more about the background of our puppies.  We are a veterinarian owned kennel and our dogs are healthy and fully up to date on all vaccines and preventatives. We are the breeder and trainer of multiple nationally awarded dogs, such as NGDC NAGDC FC AFC Peter Gunn who was the first dog in breed history to have obtained the National Gun Dog Championship title, the National Amateur Gun Dog Championship Title, the National Magnum's Masked Man award as well as the National Tri-Tronic's (now Garmin) shooting dog of the year award.  In laymans terms, those awards means he out hunted/performed all other dogs in the country. All of our litters have pedigrees full of national champions and/or hall of fame inducted hunting dogs on both the sire and dam side.  Why are national titles important? National titles are important because they designate the very best of the best of the brittany breed. To even have a chance at a national title, the dog has to be trainable, able to focus, smart, and sensible. Those traits are genetically linked. The reason you see champion after champion in the pedigree is because champions produce offspring that can have what it takes to be a champion. So you don't want to compete but just want to have a hunting dog? It's a whole lot more fun if you have a dog that is bred to hunt with an incredibly strong hunting background as seen in litters with pedigrees full of champions. All of our sires and the majority of our dams are national champion or hall of fame inductee sired at the FRONT of the pedigree...not just the great great great grandfather or grandmother as most kennels brag about. Did you ever meet your great, great, great, grandparents?  How much influence do you think ONE out of 16 pairs (32 total) of your great, great, great grandparents has over YOUR accomplishments?  Likely, not very much at all.  This is why you want to see national champions at the FRONT of the pedigree. Yes, our dogs hunt and have hunted well enough to earn our kennel multiple nationally awarded hunting dogs.  We are involved in AKC field events.  Jim serves as president of the Georgia Brittany Club chapter of the American Kennel Club's (AKC) American Brittany Club.  He has served as 4th vice-president of the American Brittany Club. We own a 1300 acre plantation that we host AKC field events at during competition season. Our oldest son was awarded junior handler of the year by the American Brittany Club in 2020. Yes, the dogs hunt and do it very well and we enjoy it as a family sport. If you don't hunt, this translates to having a dog that is intelligent enough to be trained to do things you are interested in - even if its just teaching them to heel and stay with you while jogging.  The brittany is very versatile and is so much more than just a hunting dog which is why we love this breed so much. At the foundation, it is important to have an intelligent dog that is sensible and highly trainable no matter what activity you plan to do with your puppy as it grows. The high end titles throughout all generations of the pedigree are evidence that the puppies should have extreme intelligence and can focus as well as withstand the high pressures of training for the activities that interest you and your family. Having a dog with intelligence will make life easier...even if its just housebreaking.
 

Question: Are your champion sired puppies higher quality that your non-champion sired puppies?

​

ANSWER: Puppies are all individuals. Littermates will have different characteristics and traits that will make each and every one them unique. Some of our non-champion sired puppies will be higher quality than some of the champion sired puppies. Some champion sired puppies will be higher quality than the non-champion sired. All of our litters are extremely highly bred and all of our sires are champion quality.  Jim nearly died of Covid in December of 2020 and was hospitalized in ICU for a month and he was totally out of work for 4 months and it took another 8 months for him to transition to be able to handle a full day of veterinary clients.  His lungs were shredded and being in a dusty environment (at the plantation working dogs) caused him to have severe and continued respiratory issues. As a result, we had to step away from AKC field compeitions for a few years as he couldn't train or compete.  All of our sires are highly bred and have what it takes to be a champion. Windy Hill Curly has a national best in class award at the national specialty show. We are focused on one goal, which is producing puppies that have what it takes to be champions. This starts with high quality parents and a high quality pedigree behind the parents. When it comes down to selecting the right puppy for you, we recommend looking at the individual puppy itself. The pedigrees are all very similar in quality and it is our pirmary goal to produce smart, sensible, and highly trainable puppies.  We have selected the very best puppies out of our prior litters to incorporate into our breeding program and to campaign in field events. Please complete the application truthfully and we can help you decide which puppy will be the best fit for your family.
