Nobody said it was going to be easy....

And it wasn't.  Ubu, a one year old Brittany Spaniel has been apart of my family since he was 8 weeks old.  At times he has drove me crazy but he makes up for it with all the great times we have together.  My girlfriend had wanted to get a dog for a while, she had always grown up with dogs and was used to them always being around.  I had different feeling about it as I had not had dogs growing up.

So we started to look into it and went to the SPCA and look at dogs online.  There were some we liked and some we didn't but nothing that really got us too excited.  We also did a lot of research online trying to find the right breed.  We took quizes like Animal Planet Dog Breed Selector and the Dog Breed Info Center Search.  Every time the search results were very similar with various breeds of retriever, setter and spaniels.  One morning we were out for a run and we ran by a beautiful Brittany Spaniel who was just hanging out in the drive way off leash.  When we ran by a second time we decided to stop and say hi, at that moment we decided to look for a Brittany.

A couple weeks later we found a breeder who had just had a litter of Brittany puppies.  We went and visited them and instantly feel in love with who would become Ubu.  If you are interested in Brittany Spaniels check out Animal Planets Dog Profile, the Brittany Wikipedia page or check out the video below.
