Singleton on Jul 28, 2008 In November of 2007 my wife and I lost a dear member of our family in our black lab, Tucker. By December I started researching on the breed that I wanted to replace him. I had always wanted a Brittany Spaniel because of good eperiences I've had with a friend who is an advid quail hunter. After much research and disappointment with other breeders, Ed Bullard, was recommended by a store in Starkville, MS called Gun Dog. Since I've nothing but respect for the owner, I immediately got on Mr. Bullard's websight via Gun Dog Breeders and began to read testimonials. If that wasn't enough after talking to Mr. Bullard for the first time, I knew exactly who my breeder would be. I have found Mr. Bullard to be a man of great entegrity who seems to make you feel like an old friend during the first conversation you have with him. In July of this year I received a call from Mr. Bullard that my puppy was ready and headed off to Alabama from the Mississippi Gulf Coast. I arrived at the Bullard's house right at supper time and was very apologetic for the inconvenience. Mr. and Mrs. Bullard had other ideas, however, because my place was already set at the table. I have known few people with the ability to make you feel so at home with your first visit to their home. After dinner all my expectations were exceeded when I received a tour of his kennels and met his dogs. The puppy I took home that day, a black and white male, has been an instant member of our family ever since I returned home, has pointed everything in sight, and is already retreiving. Needless to say we are simply in love with our dog. My wife and I also just had our fist born in July and it warmed her heart to see our puppies tail wag when our daughter is in the room.Mr. Bullard has already called to check on our girl and the pup. Every experience and conversation I've had with Mr. Bullard has been a pleasure. We have definetly found life time friends and a breeder in the Bullards. Russell D. Singleton Biloxi, MS Submitted by: Billy Bonds on Jul 24, 2008 I just wanted to let everyone know what a good and honest fellow Ed Bullard is and the quality of dogs he keeps and lets go to select "Brittany lovin" homes. I got a started male pup fron Ed in November 07 and a finished female a week or so later and I couldn't be happier with them. I have a litter from the two of them now and you can bank on what he say's about in their blood. Just today I took a picture of one of the litter pointing the wing and 2 of her litter mates backing her, at just 7 weeks old! When you see a puppy lock up on point at a wing and tremble with excitement at such a young age you know the breeding and instincts are all there.Submitted by: Krista Collins on Jul 23, 2008 I can just not say enough great things about Ed Bullard and Austin Creek Farms. When we started looking for a Brittany I found the Gundogbreeders website and read all the testimonies Ed had. I knew right then that Austin Creek Farms was the place to go. We have had Scootie for just a little over 3 weeks and she is 8 weeks old today and she is all we could have asked for. She is smart, energetic and one of the prettiest brittany pups I have ever seen. I just can not thank Ed and his wife enough. They are wonderful people and you will feel like family when you meet them. Ed let us come see the pups when they were about 2 weeks old. When I met Ed I was so glad we choose Austin Creek Farms. Ed has great dogs and he really takes pride in them and runs a great farm. If you are looking for a Brittany then I would definetly call Ed at Austin Creek Farms.~Krista Collins Submitted by: Amanda Howard on Jul 23, 2008 By pure luck we found Mr. Bullard and our new pup Hank after loosing our Brittany, Duke, to cancer. We have had Hank a little over a week and he has been an absolute joy. We can already tell his is going to be a wonderful dog and hunting companion (he is so smart!). We could not have found a nicer more loving family to get a Brittany from and we are very thankful that we were able to get Hank the Tank. We hope one day we can get another Brittany from Austin Creek Farms. Thank you!Amanda & Doug Submitted by: Brent and Robbi Anne Adamson on Jul 16, 2008 Well, what else can we say!! The testimonials below truly say it all about Austin Creek Farms - not only the quality Brittany's but the world class Bullard family. We will have our sweet Lola two weeks tomorrow and she has been a wonderful addition to the family. This experience has been great, from the moment we first spoke to Mr. Ed, we knew we had found the right breeder (we didnt realize we had also found a new friend) Our Lola is energetic, eager to please, and a quick learner (and based on her bloodlines will be fantastic in the field). We wouldn't think twice about recommending Austin Creek Farms to anyone looking to add a Brittany to the family. Submitted by: sandra posey on Jul 14, 2008 I bought my Kelleigh Belle from Mr. Bullard in May. He hand picked her from a litter and said I could make a trip down to see her at 3 weeks. She was just beautiful I wanted take her home then. I picked up a few weeks later. She is my second Brittany. I am enjoying her very much. Mr. Bullard was a joy to work with and very professional. Ive got a great pup and she is growing like a weed. Thanks Mr Bullard!Submitted by: Jim Kelly on Jul 02, 2008 About 4 years ago I was ready to buy a dog that my entire family could enjoy and that would bring years of pleasure in the field. After a good deal of research I settled on a Brittany. I contacted Ed Bullard and that was one of the best phone calls I have ever made. Three days later we picked up Ripp, a ten week old male liver and white Brittany. Mr. Ed intended to keep Ripp for his own, but for some reason agreed to part with him. Ripp is perfectly content to lounge on the kitchen floor, but when he hits the field he is all business. To say he trained himself is an understatement. He knew what to do and all I had to do was keep from messing him up. Needless to say, Mr. Ed and Austin Creek Farms are first class in my book. I can only imagine the type of dog he is producing today after four years of continued breeding.Submitted by: Scott Clemens on Jun 20, 2008 Quail Season had just ended in Oklahoma and my youngest son was really working me to buy a bird dog. After doing some research I felt a Brittany would be the perfect new hunting dog for our family. I then got lucky enough to find Austin Creek Farms- Alabama Brittany Spaniel Breeders on the Gun Dog Breeders website. Austin Creeks Nothin’ but Brittanys! caught my eye. I scrolled down the page and began reading the testimonials and thought I had just found the breeder of our first Brittany bird dog. I contacted Mr. Bullard the next day and explained what I was looking for. He informed me that all he had available was a 6 month old black and white female that came from 2 of his best dogs. The passion that Mr. Bullard has for his dogs and hunting were the deal clincher for me. I could not pick my pup for a month but was extremely impressed when I did. When I arrived Mr. Bullard and his wife invited me in for lunch and treated me as though I was an old friend. I also got to meet Jeremy & Anissa Crow who had also purchased a pup from the Bullard’s and have a testimonial posted on this site. We named our pup Piper, and she is one bird crazy dog. We have spent quite a bit of time playing in the field and are now starting to do some yard work, which she is picking up very quickly. My wife thought I was crazy to drive from Oklahoma to Alabama to buy a dog but I couldn’t be happier. I told her I wanted to buy another one and said only after we have a bigger yard. We are still in negotiations. I would highly recommend a Brittany from Austin Creek Farms. Thanks, Scott Clemens Enid, OK Submitted by: Allen Smith on Apr 12, 2008 I purchased a black and white female from Mr. Ed in Feburary, Dixie was born on January 12, 2008. I have worked her with a wing and tennis ball for since I got her, and my 3 kids have fell in love with her and treat her like the 4 kid. She is not scare of anything. I put out 3 quail this moring in pretty good cover and released her to hunt. The first bird she pointed for a second and then jumped in on him sending him flying and she was off after him. I called and she came back, as we moved forward she pointed the second bird and held for over a minutes before my son kicked the quail up and she chased it. The 3rd bird picked up from a good distance and worked her way in until her nose was inches from the bird. She couldn't take it and jumped the bird. That bird cound't get over a couple of feet off the ground and go a few feet, so we had a good 5 minutes of fun watching her chase and jump at the bird until she finally caught the bird and gave it to my son. It was amazing to watch a puppy this young to work so well. It was clear she was born to hunt birds, she went crazy on these birds. I can't wait to continue to work with her and get the male that I have a deposit on with Mr. Ed. We are all so pleased with our little Miss. Dixie and how she has fit into our family. This is my first time training a bird dog, but she is making it easy for me.Submitted by: Natalie Corey on Apr 08, 2008 Ed and his wife are wonderful to work with. Ozzie, our stunning liver and white male, came home to us in Feb 2008. He's smart, strong, handsome and all puppy! Ed spent alot of time advising us on Brittany's and sharing his passion of these great dogs. I would recommend Ed to anyone looking for a Brittany pup. Thanks Ed!Submitted by: alex mclennan on Mar 29, 2008 I bought a puppy from Mr. Bullard a year ago sight unseen, just on his word. We call him "Blaze" Put him with a trainer 4 weeks ago. The trainer keeps trying to buy him from me, says he is the bird findingest dog he has ever seen. Went to watch him work last saturday A fellow from Virginia was there with one of those fancy, high dollar english pointers. My trainer put out 6 birds and old Blaze found 5 of them before the pointer started hunting good. The dude from Virginia ask my trainer would he please hold Blaze to see if his dog could find the last bird. I have never been so happy with a dog. Alex Mclennan Ventosa plantationSubmitted by: R. Schofield on Mar 22, 2008 I got a black and white brittany pup from Ed a couple of weeks ago. She is all puppy... cute and full of energy! It was very nice to do business with Ed.Submitted by: Gary Maylon on Mar 17, 2008 I spent several wonderful hours on Saturday with Mr. Bullard to get a feel for the person and place where my next hunting dog will come from. I was happy to find a man who loves is dogs and his vocation. Mr. Bullard has the most beautiful Britts that I have ever seen and I have already begun to prepare myself for next hunting season. I know I will love my "wee Las" (it's St. Patrick's Day) and I can see from the adult dogs that they will be great hunters and outstanding pets. If you are looking for the best Brittany mony can buy I believe you have come to the right place.Submitted by: Gary Maylon on Mar 16, 2008 I have just returned from Austin Creek Farms to see for myself the way Mr. Bullard raised his dogs and just paid my deposit for a puppy from the next litter. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the kennels and the obvious love that he has for his dogs. Don't walk in to Mr. Bullard's thinking your just going to buy a dog. No sir you better show him that you will be willing to love and train this new member of your family or you probably won't get in line for a puppy. He can tell you where his dogs are, how good they hunt and he would be happy to have everyone of them back. I got the impression that he hates to let them go, even to a loving home. i am really looking forward next hunting season.Gary Maylon Submitted by: Mark Payne on Mar 12, 2008 I got my puppy from Ed thid Feburary 2008. He is a black and white brittany he is so smart. Knows his name and is doing small retriveing and made his first point on a bird wing today,a little over 8 weeks old.He also stays in the house right now and not to many accedents. I love Gus.Hope to get a female from another litter later. Thanks Ed.Submitted by: Allen Smith on Feb 28, 2008 We drove up form south alabama and got our first little Brittany from Mr. Ed last weekend. Dixie is a great little black and white female. She is great with our 3 small kids, they are all in love with her. We where so impressed when we saw Mr. Ed's dogs that we put down a deposit on a Orange Male pup when he has anouther litter. Dixie is the best little dog, she has great attitude but comes to her name. She has already pointed several things in the yard. I can't wait to see her start working birds. The experience of meeting Mr & Mrs Bullard was well worth the trip, it is clear how much they love thier dogs and will go out of their way to help you make the right choice and explain how train your dog. I am so glad I found his site and purchased my first of many dogs from him.Submitted by: Shea Wiggins on Feb 26, 2008 My husband and I have just bought our 2nd brittany from Ed. Nelli our first (and my husband's second love) is a champion bird dog. However, my pride and joy is Lady Belle at 5 months old she is only 12 lbs. She's so tiny, with a little pink nose and the most beautiful green eyes. But dont let her size fool you, she can point a bird like clockwork. I cant thank you enough for Lady. Ed, you will always hold a special place in my heart. Lady Bell is my snuggle at night, my kisses when i wake up, and my little hunter on the weekends. What more can a girl ask for? :-)Submitted by: Dusty Skelton on Feb 25, 2008 We recently picked up our second Brittany from Ed. We are more than pleased with our little Mollie. She is beautiful, full of energy, and super smart. I can't wait to see how she turns out. If I had the room I would own ten more and every one would come only from Ed.Submitted by: Bobby Ingram on Feb 17, 2008 A very good friend of mine Ben had purchased a Brittany from Mr. Ed Bullard. I was invited to go on a hunt with them. Nelli, Ben's dog was doing very well and we had so much fun watching her work. I told Mr. Bullard that I would like to purchase a Brittany from him. The male I got from Ed was almost out of the box ready to go. We named him Tader and he is an inside dog and loves to hunt. Thank you EdSubmitted by: Bob Jones on Feb 02, 2008 I can't say enough good things about our new Brittany pup we got from Ed. He was 8 months old when we got him. My wife and 4 year old daughter love him. The only thing he does better than be a wonderful part of our family is hunt. At 8 months old, he is more than I ever expected. He holds point and retrieves to hand. I am by no means a trainer, so whatever he does in the field is all genetic. As soon as we get home from a hunt he's ready to lay down and have the whole family pet and love on him. Mr. Bullard was very honest, easy to deal with, has great knowledge of his dogs and their pedigree, and otherwise just a great person to be around. Submitted by: Jeremy & Anissa Crow on Jan 24, 2008 We are truly blessed to have met Ed and his wife, Donnie. They have helped us pick out a new addition to our family--a beautiful liver and white Brittany female. Hotty Toddy Andie is a sweet, smart, vivacious puppy who has won our hearts. We are thrilled to have her and look forward to spending time with the Bullard's bird hunting this spring. Thank you both for everything!Jeremy & Anissa Crow Gardendale, AL Submitted by: Steve Findley on Jan 09, 2008 I bought a 2 year old Brittany, Hank, from Ed on December 8th 2007. I had owned the dog approx 2 hrs when he was accidently released in downtown Anniston Alabama. Not knowing me, and in strange surroundings the dog ran and I could not catch him. I called Mr Bullard who drove 70 miles and walked with me until we spotted Hank. After a couple of whistles and calls, Hank came running. Needless to say not many folks would be willing to go to this extent to help someone they barly knew. But, Ed Bullard is not like many folks. Not only do I have one of the finest little Brittanys I've ever been around,(he points, backs, and retrieves), but also a great new friend. If you don't want a fine little dog or if you don't want to deal with a class gentleman then you need to stay away from Ed Bullard and Austin Creek. Because from my experience that's all you will find there.Submitted by: Dusty and Rachael on Jan 03, 2008 Right after my husband and I got married I decided to surpise him with a dog. I was very worried because I had never owned a dog. My husband always talked about wanting a brittany. I found Ed's number and gave him a call. After talking with Ed and hearing how much he loved his dogs I knew I made a great chioce. When I picked up Gracie, Ed and his Wife showed us all his other dogs. I coiuld see and hear the love he had for each dog. With that much love, I know it must be hard to see any pups go. He called us a few days later to see how surprised my husdand was. We love Gracie. She has a personality like nothing I have ever seen. My in-laws call her their granddaughter. We enjoyed her so much, when we moved a cross town we decided to get another brittnay from Ed. We can not wait!!Submitted by: Tracie Burkett on Dec 31, 2007 We bought two Brittany puppies from Mr. Bullard two years ago one was a male which has turned out to be a very good hunter. The other one was a female which we got for our daughter as a family pet; she has a wonderful disposition, intelligent a great addition to our family. We are very pleased with our dogs they are healthy and have made us very happy. If any one was looking for a Brittany I would tell them that Mr. Bullard is the only man to call, he is very helpful, knowledgeable about the dogs and most importantly HONEST. Submitted by: Cindy Housel on Dec 14, 2007 My family and I bought one of Ed's puppies about a year ago. Due to some personal issues, we had a problem that included our precious puppy. Ed was the first one to jump in and help. What a great guy! This situation proved without a shadow of doubt what kind of man Ed is as well as how much he loves and cares for his dogs. If you are looking for a Brittany, there couldn't be any better place to get one than from Ed Bullard. Submitted by: Donny Powell on Dec 09, 2007 I bought a young started female dog from Mr. Bullard at the beginning of season this year and I have hunte this dog several times. I have been very pleased with the her performance. She will point, back, and retrieve. It was a pleasure doing buisness with Mr. Bullard and would recommend his dogs to anyone looking for a good brittany.Submitted by: Lindsay Waltman on Dec 06, 2007 The Bullards are very good and honest people. I remember the first time I talked with them on the phone I instantly fell in love with them. They were willing to answer ALL my questions, and believe me there were alot. I was very impressed with how much Ed knew the blood line of his dogs, and the way he talked about each of them with love. At first I wanted a female, but when I got there to pick one out I fell in love with a copper male. We took him home and few days later he called to check on how the pup was doing. I am very honored to have found Ed and his wife. I recommened him to anyone who wants a great pup and breed!Submitted by: Joshua Rotch on Nov 30, 2007 Over the past few weeks, we have watched our beautiful little puppy grow to be a young strapping dog with enourmous potential. Mr. Bullard and his wife were very helpful in making our wildest dreams come true. We have always wanted an active yet obedient brittney spaniel; and there simply are not words which could truly do justice to the pure beauty of being out in the hunting fields with "Felix", and his capabilities in the field are second to none. I have owned brittney spaniels before; but I have never owned a puppy of this caliber. He is smart, obedient, and very easy to teach; and in only 3-4 weeks, he is now completley housebroken. He gets along very well with our other dog "Munchkin", who is a Pomeranian; and he is even very nice to our little kitty, "Sunshine". Submitted by: Charles McCoy on Nov 30, 2007 We bought our first Brittany, Patches, from Ed over 30 years ago. At that time, Ed was working a "real" job and only had a few dogs. Patches quickly became a part of our family and remained so for the next 10 years. He was a wonder pet with our children and an excellent hunting partner for me. Ed and his wife, Donnie, have always taken great pride in the love and care they give all of their animals. They are truly very special folks.Charles Pinson, AL Submitted by: Jon Peterson on Nov 29, 2007 I got in contact with Ed Bullard in October after hunting pheasants in Minnesota and deciding I wanted a BRITTANY. I finally got the whole family to go up to his place the Friday after Thanksgiving and pick up SCOUT. The liver and white boy is just beautiful and full of life. We also arranged to hunt together the next Tuesday. It was a blast to hunt with some of his best dogs (specifically CHIEF and DOC) as well as give SCOUT a chance to point several quail and even have a few shot over him at 4 months old !! These pups truly come into this world knowing wh at to do as Ed likes to say- it's true because I saw it two days ago. Thank you Ed for your time and effort. Folks.... this man and his wife care about their Brittanys and it shows!! Thanks again from Jon in Acworth, GA. Submitted by: Mark Depew on Nov 28, 2007 Purchasing a Brittany Spaniel from Austin Creek Farms has been an absolute pleasure. I received an quick response from Ed, the owner, who is clearly devoted to his dogs and a true gentleman. Ed took every opportunity to insure that our 16 week old pup would come to us in good health, spirit, and with proper socialization and early field exposure to give us the best chances for success. No question about it, our next dog comes from Austin Creek Farms. (By the way, Ed can spin a few good dog stories too if you've got a few minutes).Submitted by: Carolyn Whitmire on Nov 27, 2007 Ed and Donnie Bullard are at the top when it comes to raising Brittanys! They give love and care to each and every puppy as it they are going to keep them all. We got our Brittany from them and "Sugar" is absolutely beatiful and full of energy! Ed and Donnie are wonderful Christian folks! I wouldn't go anywhere else for a Brittany!Submitted by: Jerry L. Jones on Nov 25, 2007 As co-owner of Mountian Shadows Farms Hunting Preserve, I have had the pleasure of having Ed Bullard and some of his Brittanys hunt with us on several occasions. From the first time out it was apparant that Ed was serouis about producing quality Brittanys for his hunting use.Recently my wife and I visited Austin Creek Kennels for the first time and found the same care and professionalism as I had seen in the field. Bottom line, I was impressed with what I saw. My family and I have been raising, training and hunting over Brittanys for 45+ years, and I woudn't hesitate to add one of Austin Creeks puppies to our hunting family! Submitted by: Diane on Nov 21, 2007 I am NOT a dog person, but I wanted to make my children's Christmas one that they will never forget. My husband talked me into taking a road trip to Mr. Bullard's home. Once we got there I fell in love with the precious puppies he has and the bigger dogs he introduced to us. Mr. and Mrs. Bullard were so nice and wanted to make sure we knew that their dogs came from a loving Christian family and they also took the time to get to know us so that they knew we would be a good family for thier puppies. I cannot wait to see the look on my kids face when we tell them they are getting puppies. Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Bullard for helping my kids Christmas dreams come true.Submitted by: brett barnard on Nov 21, 2007 If you get a chance to visit Austin creek farms you wont want to leave. The love that Ed Bullard shows for his dogs and bird hunting is just fun to be around.If you grew up bird hunting like I did you know its hard to find the old time bird dogs that live to point back retrieve and most of all please thier owner. But Ed bullard has took a bloodline dating years back has put the time love`and care into making the finest birdogs and friends you will ever see. He is one of the best friends i have ever had. If you visit austin creek farms you will have one of the best dogs and friendships you have ever had. I cant say enough about these wonderful people and their dogs. thanks Ed cant wait to go hunting again. Submitted by: Patrick Shaddix on Nov 20, 2007 After searching extensively for a family pet to make our childrens' dreams come true, we wound up at Austin Creek Farms. Our brief phone conversation told me my wife and I had to meet this man! Ed and his lovely wife couldn't have been nicer, and their Brittanys are just gorgeous. After all was said and done, we ended up with not one, but TWO beautiful pups. Thanks again to these fine people and their love for these animals and people in general!Submitted by: Tonya W on Nov 09, 2007 The anticipation of driving to Austin Creek Farms was only surpassed by the friendly and inviting nature of The Bullards. What wonderful folks! With great dogs to boot! My orange and white, Reb, is great with the kids and is already a great addition to our family. Look forward to seeing you all again soon and the covered bridge is great!Submitted by: Beth R. on Nov 06, 2007 We purchased a dog from Ed Bullard that has turned out to be a great pet, as well as a great hunting companion for my husband. We are very pleased! Submitted by: Blake S. Jones on Oct 30, 2007 Anyone looking for absolutely great dogs and even better breeders should look no further. The Brittanys at Austin Creek Farms are amazing and I would never think to buy one from a different breeder. Mr. Eds years of experience coupled with champion bloodlines led to the little liver and white boy I took home last sunday. He is beautiful and already at 14 months is one of the smartests dogs I have ever owned. If your looking for a dog that will hunt go visit Mr. Ed in Hayden, AL, I promise it will be worth the ride even if just to look. Submitted by: Danny Womack on Oct 30, 2007 Sometimes in life we cross paths with someone who can both lighten our load and inspire us to become a better person. In my case, Mr Ed Bullard is one of those people. Having done the research, I have begun the wait for what I'm sure will be a wonderful addition to our family here in Georgia. Mr Bullards plesant demeanor and willfullness to freely give of his abundant knowledge is inviting from the start. I'm truly excited about the upcoming puppy and just as excited that God has made my path cross with such a wonderful man. Thanks for all of your guidance, Mr Bullard, and may God continue to bless you and your family!Submitted by: Emily Hohneck on Oct 30, 2007 My husband and I live @ Reelfoot Lake in Tiptonville, TN. We have been searching for a puppy for several months. We wanted a Brittany Spaniel, but was unable to find one in our area. I started searching the internet and found Austin Creek Farms which was only about 35 miles from my grandparents. After talking to Mr. Ed, I knew I wanted to drive to Alabama asap. He and is family were wonderful and our 3 month old orange and white puppy is precious and playful. We were very pleased with this kennel.Submitted by: blake jones on Oct 30, 2007 Mr ED and his wife at Austen Creek farms completed my search for a great Brittany. They have great dogs and you can tell right off the bat they take a lot of pride in what they do. Mr. Bullard personally knows the bloodline of every dog and puppy he owns, and he will tell you about all of them if you go to see him. My pup I got from them is wonderful and I would never have even thought about getting a dog from somewhere else. He is fifteen weeks old and looks as if he is going to be the best dog I have owned. If you want quality Brittanys look no further than Austen Creek Farms Hayden, AL. Submitted by: Sarah on Oct 27, 2007 Where do I start? Ed Bullard and Ms. Donnie had me smiling all the way back to Georgia. Not only did I get the prettiest lil' girl this side of the Mississippi but they were an absolute treat. Look no further if your lookin' for good people with good dogs. I look forward to crossing that covered bridge again! :) Thanks again, ya'll!Submitted by: Lee Cayse on Oct 17, 2007 A family friend told us about Ed Bullard and Austin Creek farm - they knew we were looking for a family dog as well as a hunting companion for my husband. After talking with Ed we knew he was the breeder for us, he was very knowledgable and so friendly. We requested a Brittany female (liver and white) and boy did he deliver. Eight weeks later we picked up the new addition to our family. "Ally" is a very smart, interjetic and loving dog. At 3 months old she went on her first hunting trip (opening day of dove season) everyone on the field was shocked at how well she retrieved birds. Ally's natural instincts were beyond all expectations. We highly recommend Ed, his wonderful wife and their well bred Brittany's.Submitted by: doug bresee on Oct 16, 2007 I am from Louisiana and found Molly at Austin Creek Farms/Mr. Ed Bullard. She went on her first hunt at 12 weeks with our other two Brittanys. We went to Clear Creek Quail Preserve in Lumberton, Ms. She backed the two older dogs,made 3 retrieves, hunted dead birds on her own and also pointed butterflies (but we will forgive her for that). Molly hunted for 3 hours and never gave up. Dealing with Mr. Ed was a pleasure. He was very hospitable on our visit to see the puppies and one can tell that his dogs are truly loved and cared for. Submitted by: The Stranges, Tony, Chris,& Jake on Oct 05, 2007 My wife and I, along with our six year old son were looking for a dog that could be a family pet but also one that could learn along with and teach my six year old about bird hunting. We decided on a Brittany and began looking for a reputable breeder. After seeing the ad in Covey Rise, I called and was introduced to Ed Bullard for the first time. He had a liiter of puppies right then but I explained that we were moving and were not quite ready but I would stay in touch. After doing a little homework, I learned that Mr. Bullard was a man of his word and could be trusted to always do the right thing. As time went on we visited several other Brittany breeders some of which felt more like a puppy manufacturing facility but always came back to Austin Creek Farms. In speaking to Ed one Sunday he explained a situation that landed him in an armful of puppies from his own line that were ready and in need of a good home. My family drove over to Alabama that night (we didn't get there until about 8pm) and was graciously met by Ed and his wife. Needless to say my son was "smitten" by a liver and white 9 week old female that he promtly named "Coco". We sat down at the kithchen table and did the paperwork and Coco became a part of the Strange family. Coco and the six year old are inseperable. She is healthy and happy and has already pointed a bird albeit a toy. Thanks Ed for making a little boys dream come true.Submitted by: Jim Walker on Oct 03, 2007 I have invited Ed to quail hunt on my farm several times. It is always fun watching his dogs work. His Brittanys are agressive,hunt hard and cover the fields very well. They stay close enough that we can keep up with them.His dogs enjoy pointing and retreiving the bird we shoot. It is always enjoyable to hunt with Ed and his dogs. Submitted by: The Stanfords on Oct 02, 2007 We purchased a female Brittany from Ed Bullard after shopping around for just the right breeder. We visited several breeders but settled on Ed because of the quality of his puppies, his kennel and the breeder himself. It is obvious that Ed really cares about his dogs and the people who purchase his dogs. Our female puppy is a beautiful orange and white who won our hearts immediately. We intended to eventually breed her with our beloved liver and white Brittany we?d had for 9 years, but he became ill suddenly and we lost him. We were so impressed with Ed?s puppies that we got a liver and white male from his next litter, and we couldn?t be happier with him. These puppies are delightful family pets and are already displaying the quality of their bloodlines in pointing and retrieving. You will not find a better person to do business with than Ed Bullard, nor will you find any better dogs for your pet/hunting needs!Submitted by: Cory Smith on Oct 01, 2007 I began my search for a Brittany around the first of August. I almost gave up when a friend told me about gundogbreeder.com. Mr Ed Bullard was one of the first I called. He happened to have a litter ready in 2 weeks. I picked out a liver and white female and man what a dog. She was pointing a wing @7 1/2 weeks and pointing and holding on birds @ 10 1/2 weeks. Mr Ed is the nicest and easiest to talk to fellow you will ever meet. He loves his dogs so much that I think he really hates to sell any of them. If you want a family dog, field trial dog or anything in between Ed Bullard is the man to call.Cory Smith Loxley, Al. Submitted by: Scott Arledge on Sep 27, 2007 My wife and I purchased a liver and white male (Sir Charles)from Austin Creek Farms in March of this year. We were looking for a friendly, loving and smart dog for family enjoyment. I tell you, "Charlie" has been a joy for the entire family. He's healthy, happy, smart and energetic. You can tell he is well bred, and comes from a fine line of dogs. Mr. and Mrs. Bullard run a great breeding program, and I highly recommend getting a Brittany from them. It's worth the trip to the farm just to see all of the good looking Brittany's and meet some very nice people. You can tell that they are in the Brittany business because of the love they have for them.Submitted by: Mike Tipton on Sep 20, 2007 I'll second what good things everyone else has said. I've had the pleasure of helping train a few of Mr. Bullards dogs and can tell you first hand that you'll not find a pup that would be easier to train than one of Ed's. You can tell when the dog's come to you that they are well socialized and are eager to please. As for Ed, he seems well socialized and eager to please also, just kidding I don't think you'll meet a nicer person I haven't met his wife yet but I'm sure she's the same. By the way Ed, How's those 16 inch haybale's? Cya next weekend.Submitted by: Cindy Housel on Sep 18, 2007 My family and I got an orange and white Brittany from Mr. Bullard in January 2007. My boys were so excited about Hero. Mr. Bullard and his wife were kind and welcoming. It was obvious that they take great care of their dogs. Hero is a very energetic and very smart dog. He is a great addition to our family.Submitted by: David Yates on Sep 18, 2007 I got a nine week old liver and white female from Austin Creek two days ago. I cannot say enough about Ed and his operation. He was an extremely nice man who is very knowledgeable about this breed. He answered every question I had with ease. After the first conversation with Ed I knew I had found the right breeder. My new puppy is amazing! After two days she is sitting and knows her name. She is almost housebroken and will retrieve anything I throw at her. In addition to being smart she is also very sweet and affectionate. If anyone is looking for a quality Brittany there is no reason to look any further than Austin Creek.Submitted by: Ben Wiggins on Sep 06, 2007 I was looking for a good bird dog and a good family pet when I read about the Brittany.I found out about Ed on the web. After speaking to him over the phone a few times I knew I wanted one of his pups. Ed did everything he could to give me information about how to begin training my dog,good books to read and even gave me prints to build a qauil house.As for Nelli she is a great dog who loves a feather and aims to please. Thanks to the Bullards at Austin Creek Farms my wife and I have a great new addition to our family and I have an awesome new hunting partner.Ben Wiggins Hoover,Al Submitted by: Larry Baile on Sep 05, 2007 We got our puppy from Mr. Bullard when she was 6 weeks old. She is so energetic and has a lot of spirit. She keeps us moving and laughing. Next month she is going to start training. We're very happy with her.Submitted by: Dan Richards on Sep 05, 2007 I have 2 Brittany Spaniels that I got from Ed Bullard - Dan's Copper Hunter is a white and orange male, and a great field dog and friend. He has a winning personality and is very eager to hunt. I got Dan's Bonnie Brown Hunter from Ed last year, and she has so much energy and spunk! She loves to hunt, too. Copper and Bonnie have produce 9 of the finest-looking pups you've ever seen, and those pups are also showing great promise as field dogs. Ed has a first-rate kennel, and he and his wife are more than just dog breeders - they truly love each and every dog they have - and it shows!! I'll be going to get another pup from Austin Creek Farms again ASAP.Submitted by: Dan Tucker on Sep 05, 2007 My son and I heard about Mr. Ed Bullard from a friend who saw his Austin Creek Farm ad in Covey Rise Magazine. We bought a 6 week old orange/white Brittany female puppy and have been extremely pleased. At 8 weks old, our puppy will point quail wings better than any other I've raised. Friends can not believe the pictures. Ed's puppies are beautiful, very birdy, and really do "come into this world knowing what to do". It has been a great pleasure getting to know Ed; he is a very knowledgable Brittany breeder who you can trust. We will definetly buy from Ed again.Submitted by: Jay Bicknell on Aug 26, 2007 I am a dog trainer in Kentucky and have been mainly a pointer man since the 5th grade. I recently got female from the one and only Mr. Ed Bullard. Macy is hard going intense tough little dog in the field but calm enough for my 5 yr old little girl to do some of the training. Macy has got a home till the day she dies. I am a brittany and pointer man now!!! Not only is Ed breeding some fine dogs he is one fine fellow who will bend over backwards to help you out. You meet Ed once and he will be a friend for life. The Bicknell Family says thanks for our Macy and thanks for the new friendship.Submitted by: Scott Hendrix on Aug 23, 2007 Ed Bullard has a first rate operation in Alabama. He is honest and straightforward. His Brittany's are some of the best I have ever seen. My do, Buck is turning into a great birddog. Very smart, Very healthy. Can't say enough good things about Austin Creek Kennels.Scott Hendrix Submitted by: Scott Hendrix on Aug 20, 2007 I found Ed Bullard on the gun dog website and called him immediately. He had exactely what I was looking for, a liver and white male Brittany. After Talking to Ed I realized with the enthusiasm and honesty he spoke with I had found the right breeder. I arrived at his home early on Saturday morning to pick up my puppy and he and his wife were giving all the dogs their shots. His place is impressive and he has by far the best looking Brittanys I've ever seen. I brought Buck home and have been very pleased. He is already pointing a wing and became attached to me immediately. Ed Bullard has a great operation and best of all GREAT Brittany bird Dogs. I'll definitely buy another from him!Scott Hendrix Louisville, MS Submitted by: Olivia Reed on Jul 08, 2007 I have a female orange/white from the same litter born in Feb. She is the light of our lives. She is everything we wanted and more. Ed and his wife are the most wonderful people and have the best raised brittany's in the south. Submitted by: Phil Inman on Jun 22, 2007 I am fron New Bern, N.C. and I found Austin Creek Farms on your website. I checked the web for 9 mths. before I found these people. I drove to his farm to get two Brittany puppies. I brought them home one for me and one for a friend that hunts with me. The puppies were born Feb. 26. 2007. I could not pick them up until after mother day weekend. They had started to work the puppies and socilized them very well. The puppies are very birdie and want to retrieve for you like no other puppies that I have seen at that age. The puppies are all Ed. Bullard said they were and more. Ed. and his wife have a fine operation. I will be going back for another puppie as soon as I can get more room. These puppies are Champion quality and I would say if you are looking for a Brittany check out Austin Creek Farms. |
