REDTAIL007 4 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 hi as regards braccos there nothing like spinones , i work gsps and bracco italianos and find them brill they seenm to be a lot steadier but with a better nose , and they dont range to far as suggested and absalute to all rounder and if i had to choose the one breed having had gsps for over 25 yrs and the braccos for around 8 or 9 yrs i think it would have to be the braccos 1 Quote Link to post
stroller 341 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Red tail what are they like to kennel I was talking to a bloke called Paul Keyland who keeps a large kennel of different hprs and he loves the Bracco but reckons they aren't easy with other dogs? Quote Link to post
REDTAIL007 4 Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Hi I know Paul he is down near Ipswich, my 2 bitches are spot on with the gsps but the dog came from Poland and he is ok with the girls but he can be a little dominant but if you have 1 dog running round with 5 bitches your going to get that I have some pups which are 16 weeks to the dog but they have never met him incase of any damage to them he gets a little too boisterous trying to play but the all kennel well Quote Link to post
Ruby Lakey 18 Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 If you listen to podcasts, check out the hunting dog podcast on iTunes. The guy who hosts breeds bracco's and there is hours of general and specific info on there. Quote Link to post
stroller 341 Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 What are they like in cold weather and can they jump fences? jumping a fence would be a must as they are too big to lift Quote Link to post
