Congrats on the new addition to the family, Pat!

Puppies love to "EAT THE COOKIE!!!"

Congratulations Pat. Good luck with the new pup!!!

I know where Lizzie got the name from... How did you come up with Josey?

Congrats, Pat... I know how you feel!

Congrats bud...can't wait to meet her!

That's funny Blaine that you figured there was a story behind the name... your right. But this ones not an axe murderer.


Because Black Brits are a little unusual I wanted a name that was about her color. Her actual full AKC name is "Josey Jet Black". Ever hear someone describe the color as "jet Black" as in his hair was jet black.

Well "JET" is a shiny black semi-precious gemstone that is used to make jewlery. I once read a story about it and the men who mined the stone were refered to as "joes".

So there you go.... "Josey Jet"

Wow! She's beautiful!
Little chit doesn't even realize she just won the parent lottery...

Have fun and enjoy Josey!!

have fun pat

Parent lottery.... that's funny Jon. Very true too!! Dogs in our house got it made.

What a cutie !
She has that intent look , very focused on what is going on around her .
I like that look in a pup .

Thanks ecurB... your avatar makes me think you know your dogs!! So far she is picking things up way faster than any other pup I've ever had. And I have had a bunch of pups...

It's gonna be a blast to train her, this is the first time I had a pup while working from home.

No pro , just someone who has an affinity for dogs .
Every new one I meet is subject to being my buddy !
The "mean" ones are a challenge , but as of yet my success ratio is 100% .

The Labs in my avatar are my buddy's , I've been privledged to know 5-6 generations of them and they've taught me some things .
Presently I'm "dogless" , but I have a standing order for the first pup who's born with any disability that would preclude it's sale .
So far , so good , no pups who "need me" !
Someday maybe , but for now I live vicariously....

ecurB,

OK... but it sounds like you need to give some lucky pooch a home.

Cute as a button Pat.
Evidently old age has made you forget the "joys" of having a puppy in the house .
Spoil her rotten.

She is beyound Cute!!
She is one lucky pup, good luck with her.

Pat,we want to see Josey in your boat next year,front paws on the bow pointing to where the fish are

Cute pup Pat...

Can I assume her first rubber chew toy was a hook free 3' bubblegum tube

sd... never had a boat dog before. I think thats worth a try.

starker... you know that tube toy is a great idea. Will Do!

Pat, if you want a boat dog, the tube toy thing is a Very bad idea.

Never listen to Starky, the only dogs he was around were his dates in college .

Paul,his DATES on the nuke subs too!

Ha!

Cute pup! Have fun with her and enjoy her company!

Boy, that is one cute pup!

PAT a boat dog is cool but the tube idea sucks She plays with one with no hooks now and will not know the diffrence till she gets hooked with a REAL ONE

Yup.. the tube toy idea is not good I agree.

Too many drawbacks:

Hooked dog
Lower inventory
Customer returns for dog spit

Thanks for nothin Stark...

A few things that we do with a new pup Crate training is a must / if she is wining at night take a little travel alarm wind up clock . wind it up and put it inside a old pillow case and place it in the crate she will think it is moms heartbeat and sleep curled up to it /another thing for inside the crate is a glow in the dark frisbee which will become her best friend and she will retrive quickley for ya when thrownOur Springer would dive under water 7 feet for that dam frisbee she was nuts BEST DOG WE EVER HAD

I always crate train them. Right now she sleeps in a small cage. we also have a large cage in the garage where she will stay as she gets older and lastly we have a nice 5x12 outside kennel with overhang from the patio shed. A little corner of the shed has a cool dog box to hang out in.

1st s nights have been very good. a little whinning when she 1st gets put in the cage and then about 6 hrs of peace before she starts up... but thats mastly because she has to go out to do her business. Tiny pup tiny bladder.

Gotta love a new puppy and that one is a real cutie!!!

Crates are like dens to wild dogs, a comfortable/safe place for them to rest/hide.

Good luck with her !! Purdy pup.

OMG- What a heart melter
I had a Brit for 14 wonderful years- She will be an excellent pet and a terrific hunting companion.
Good luck with her.

I'm having a blast with this pup....

Looks like she's having a blast with you too !
I get the feeling that her breeder is very good at one of the most important aspects of raising pups for sale (IMO) , socialization .

Your right... check out mom & dad...

Very, very cute Pat!!!!!!! Congrats on the new pup!

Wow, a cutie for sure.

When she falls asleep on the floor after playing I put her in her cage with the door open to continue her crate training. But if she wakes up she comes out and goes right to my sneaker to finish her nap.

it's funny I just saaw this Pat, I had a long talk with the wife about "my next brittany" My wife really does not want anymore dogs, I on the other hand can't imagine life without one.

Josey Jet, what an awesome name, for an awesome pup.... You know I love the smell of puppies ~ The old sneaker trick lmao... when my brittany was a pup she had to sleep with one of my old "stinky" hunting socks! enjoy her Pat

Nice.

Beautifull pup. Looks like she is training you well.

Congrats Pat... Great looking pooch....

That's a real cute pup! Good luck with her!

Hey Pat!!!

She's beautiful. Happy hunting.

Pat If you got an old hot water bottle put some warm water in it warpped up in a old blanket and put it in her cage along with the alarm Clock had an OLD Big Ben for many years the pups seem to like it alot. The water bottle will help keep her warm since she doesn't have anymore littlermates to sleep with.
