The Washington Brittany Club
Established 1954
Welcome to the Washington Brittany Club! We hope you will find a great deal of information about our club, our events, and all things Brittanys. Please check back regularly as we post new information.
About Us
The Washington Brittany Club was formed by six people on August 11, 1954. We are sanctioned by our parent club, The American Brittany Club, and the American Kennel Club, and are recognized as a non-profit organization by the State of Washington. The club has conducted field trials, specialty shows, hunt tests, and other activities for Brittany enthusiasts in the Northwest. We are proud of our 70 year history, and invite you to be an active part of our future.

Goals and Objectives
Promoting cooperation and friendship among both breeders and owners of Brittanys.
Encouraging higher standards in breeding, training, and showing of Brittanys in the field and show ring.
Sponsoring and conducting events such as field trials, hunt tests, and specialty shows so Brittanys can achieve field, hunt, and show championship titles.
Discourage the breed from splitting into groups of "field dogs" and "show dogs" - striving forever to keep it "dual dog".
Supporting activities that encourage Brittany owners to become more involved in club activities, and promote the breed's primary objectives.
Cooperating with other clubs, organizations, and groups for wildlife conservation and wildlife areas; maintaining esxisting event grounds, and developing future event grounds.
The Brittany...
A compact, closely knit dog of medium size, between 30 to 40 pounds, and from 17 1/2 to 20 1/2 inches at the shoulder. He is a leggy dog that can cover ground with agility. He is strong, vigorous, energetic, and quick of movement. His small size makes him easy to carry in a car. His short tail, which can be either natural or docked, is an asset. He has enough coat to protect him from the briars but not enough to catch burrs to any great extent He can be either orange and white, or liver and white, with either clear or roan patterns. He is not a heavily coated dog, but is lightly fringed. He works in the same manner as a pointer, but without the great range. He points and holds his game. He retrieves both on land and in the water. He is used primarily on upland game in the United States, but is used on both fur and feather in France. He is noted for an exceptionally keen nose and a very biddable disposition. Many of the country's top dogs have been house pets as well as field winners and fine hunting dogs. The Brittany is a high energy dog who is bred to hunt. He does need lots of exercise or opportunities to hunt to keep him happy.
