Brittanys are a pointing breed, unlike the springer which is a flushing breed. One speeds up on game, one slows to a stop

That explains the brittanys then.
I was not aware that they were classed as a pointer.
I see what you are saying about the flushing side of it as it would be a hard instinct to curb and require some serious training knowledge to make it work.
