Boykin Spaniel
“The dog that doesn't rock the boat”
The Boykin Spaniel is a medium in size, sturdy and typically spaniel. It is first and foremost a hunting dog with proven retrieving and flushing abilities characterized by boundless enthusiasm and endurance, moderate speed and agility. Being intelligent and possessing a great desire to please make the Boykin easy to train. He is a strong swimmer, taking to water easily and is valuable for water retrieving as well as field retrieving. They are solid, rich liver or dark chocolate allowing for a small, white spot on the chest. No other white markings are allowed. This little brown retriever can be found on hunts and in homes across America. Stamina in hot weather and eagerness to please make this dog a favorite in the Dove fields, but Boykins have retained their spaniel flushing abilities and readily adapt to a variety of upland game hunting including pheasant, quail, chuckar and grouse. An aptitude for water retrieving combined with their compact size assures these dogs a place in the duck boats and blinds as well. They are even effective in deer driving or in tracking wounded deer. Like many of the sporting breeds, Boykin spaniels make the transition from hunting companion to family pet easily. Boykin Spaniels are true dual-purpose hunting dogs.
