Some Brittanys will stalk and kill cats. However, a majority of rescue Brittanys are good with cats and other dogs. Because of their sensitive natures, Brittanys can be trained to live with cats, and usually they are not aggressive to other dogs. Before adopting a Brittany, please inquire about its ability to be with cats or other dogs. Also, foster homes will provide this information whenever possible.
Older dogs make excellent pets.
These dogs are usually well socialized and will bond rapidly to anyone providing them with food, love and attention. Even dogs that are 10 years and older have closely bonded with a new owner. Under-socialized dogs can also learn to bond, if given enough time and attention. Some dogs take more time that others to transition into a new home, and we ask that anyone adopting an older dog to give it 3-4 weeks, or even longer, to transition. Most rescue dogs are between the ages 1-5 years old.
