I had a friend who wanted a Brittany and didn't want to wait for my litter.
So I contacted Theo Whetzel at Willow Branch Brittanys to see if she had any pups. She sent me a photo of 3 male pups. Meanwhile my friend didn't wait and went out and bought one. Well I like the way the pup in the middle of the picture looked and I purchased him and  I named him "Roy" after my grandfather.
Roy was a natural since day one. He was pointing and retrieving at 14 weeks old.
I remember in Dec.91, my buddy who had a shooting preserve needed me to guide.
My guide dog was in heat and his dog was old and under the weather. I was a little nervous about using "Roy " because up until this point I'm the only one who had ever shot over him. The first bird when up and the 4 hunters shot at the bird. "Roy " got 31 birds that day on a 25 bird hunt. He found 6 extra's
and I was Proud of my 7 month old pup. Over the years any one who had seen him hunt knew he was a good bird dog. Dozen's of puppy buyer's who stop by to buy females changed their minds after seeing "Roy" He's the reason why we have a fine kennel of dogs today and pups in 28 states. I shot over 1000 birds over this dog and I'm heartbroken. He will be missed. He was a True Briitany!!!!

A Special Thanks to Theo Whetzel for giving me the once in a lifetime Brittany
