The Boykin Spaniel Society was founded in
the summer of 1977 in Camden, South Carolina. Within the first year the Society
had over 300 members from 25 states. An
official registry for the breed was started in 1979. The Boykin Spaniel Society
has now grown to over 2500 members hailing from every state in the union as
well as Canada, Switzerland, Austria and Germany. The Boykin Spaniel
Society's first annual National Hunting Test was held May 23, 1980. Since then
the competitors have grown steadily in numbers and ability, attracting dog
owners and handlers from all parts of the country. learn more>> |
