Short answer, no. While the Braque Francais is also an amazing house dog, they are first and foremost a sporting breed that is hard-wired for bird hunting. We put great effort into developing our program so that we have the best hunting bloodlines we can get. Our early socialization for these pups are geared for bird hunting. We foster opportunities for early training where they will use their noses for tracking scent, retrieving, and will be exposed to loud noise to eventually transition to gun shot. Pups as young as 4 -weeks old will exhibit prey drive and the ability to point. They are already passionate about birds and for that reason we feel a responsibility to place them in a home where they will be able to do what they love for the rest of their lives.
