Puppies
We are very much a hobby kennel here at Caliah Brittanys! We breed when the opportunity arises to improve on our dogs. We want to be producing extraordinary multi-purpose Brittanys each and every time we breed! We want them to be placed into extraordinary homes as well. We take every effort to ensure the health of every dog and/or puppy that leaves our keeping. We expect to be producing around 1-2 well-planned litters a year. As a part of our contract, we require that dogs be offered to us when the owners can no longer care for them. This assures us that our dogs are not placed in less-than-desirable circumstances and the dog's welfare is always placed first. Occasionally, you will notice dogs that are available for re-homing on this page.
To understand how we place our puppies, please read The Options of Buying a Puppy. This will help you when filling out an application.

Common Questions:
What is the process of picking our puppy?
We will be monitoring the puppies as they grow, evaluating their temperament, structure and as well as testing their 'birdiness'. We will do our best to match each owner with the puppy that best matches what you are looking for.
What is the best spay/neuter timing?
We ask that you hold off on spay/neutering your puppy until they have matured. There are many discussions about early vs later spaying and neutering, but we believe that letting the puppies mature naturally has more benefits than down sides.
Puppy Names
We will be using very generic names for the puppies while we have them all based on the color of the collar that they are assigned at birth such as 'Orange Girl' or 'Blue Boy'. When you receive your puppy you will end up with two names for it; your everyday 'call' name and a registered AKC name. The call name you are free to name your dog anything that you would like. For the AKC name we want to stay with a fixed structure; that structure is starting the name with the kennel name "Caliah" or "Caliah's" and then up to 40 additional characters, the one twist that we ask that you follow on this the rest of the name be associated with the theme of the litter.
What happens if I can no longer keep the puppy?
If for any reason you can not keep the puppy, it must returned to Caliah Brittanys for re-homing and is not to be released it to a Rescue, Animal Shelter or a Humane Society.
Puppy Health Statement
We follow the American Brittany Club breeders Code of Ethics. To the best of our knowledge your puppy will be healthy when you come to pick it up. From our research, the puppies' pedigree are free of congenital and/or hereditary defects. Your puppy has received the best possible care and has had vaccines appropriate for their age at the time that you pick it up. To insure good health it is critical that you continue your puppy's health program and complete their immunization record. There are no health warranties beyond what is listed here. For a full year from date of birth, we will provide a refund for any of our puppies which has a congenital defect so serious that your and our veterinarians agree it disqualifies the puppy as a pet; beyond that you understand that a puppy is a living creature and may require veterinary care for any number of reasons and we will not reimburse you for any veterinarian bills you may incur, or boarding, maintenance, loss of emotional benefit, consequential damages or any other liability.
