Visits to France
 

The original French Brittany (Epagneul Breton) was developed in the Brittany (Bretagne) region of France. That region is its original homeland.  Many of our imported dogs came from that region.

We have traveled to France twice in the last 13 years for agricultural and various other reasons. While there, we grabbed the opportunity to visit some kennels and see some Bretons. The following are a few of the photographs of those visits. We hope you enjoy them.

At a field trial: Conductor (handler) vehicles with Bretons inside. French Brittany people in France rarely use a pickup truck.
