What are the primary differences between the American and French Brittanys?
A compact, closely knit dog of medium size, a leggy dog having the appearance, as well as the agility, of a great ground coverer. Strong, vigorous, energetic and quick of movement. Ruggedness, without clumsiness, is a characteristic of the breed. He can be tailless or has a tail docked to approximately four inches. 30-40 pounds, 17 1/2 to 20 1/2 inches at the highest point of the shoulder. So leggy that the body length is approximately the same as the height of the shoulders.
