Important to know
They are prone to pee when they are exited or nervous.
They need to be very well socialized from puppyhood for them not to become fearful and shy.
If you are not willing to go running, hiking, swimming and have a very active lifestyle, this breed is not for you.
And no… despite their name, they have nothing to do with Great Britain. They come from the French province of Brittany.
