This website is about my Brittany's, not about me!

However, it might be useful to provide a little background for those who might be interested.  So, read on if you are.

My name is Robert Weaver, most everyone calls me either Bob or hey you.  I prefer the former.  I was born and raised in Rupert, ID graduating from Minico High in 1964.  That makes me 60 as I write this, born in 1946.  The day after graduation, with a hangover still attached, I left for the Air Force and spent four years in a combination of Texas, California and Montana.  The last 3 1/2 years in Montana. 

I graduated from College at Weber State University (then Weber State College) in Ogden, UT in May of 1970 and was hired by the Federal Government right off the steps of the college.  That's all that will be said about work, this site if for play.  After living in California, Idaho, Virginia, California and Idaho I have now retired and pretty do anything I want.  A little computer repair work just keeps me up to speed on the latest technology and spending money for the dogs. 

In the late 1970's and early 1980's, while living in rural Jerome, ID I got involved with raising Brittany Spaniels (yea, they used to be called Brittany Spaniels but the Spaniel reference was removed some years ago.  Their official AKC name is just Brittany's no matter what anyone wants to tell you.)   This is also the time when I started my freelance computer business which I named BrittanySoft MicroSystems.   While living in Jerome I raised and sold several hundred registered Brittany's basically for $50 each with papers.  Back then it cost $2 to register your dog and the vet charged $3 a puppy to dock their tails and give them a once over.  Now it cost $30 to register the dog and a vet won't let you in the door for less than $200.  You figure out why they are worth $300 and $400 apiece now.
