 We are Bill & Dawn Crites and we are located in Blythewood, SC.  We have been owned by our beloved Boykin Spaniels since 1991 when we got our first Boykin Maggie Belle.  When Maggie passed away in 2000 we were blessed to be selected to get a pup that we named Lily.  Lily was the love of our lives and we do all that we do to honor her memory and continue her legacy. We currently have four little girl-kins, Piper, Story, Ever & Rumor,  one little Boy-kin, Hal, and one female English Setter, Maizey.  Piper Anne is the daughter of Lily. Our wish was to keep a piece of Lily with each generation.   Story, Ever & Hal are all Piper Anne's "babies" and Rumor is Story's "baby".   All of our "kids" are inside dogs, are hunted and participate in field trials and hunt tests.   Bill has served on the Board of Directors of Midlands HRC, the Boykin Spaniel Society and the Boykin Spaniel Foundation.  He has also chaired the BSS Retriever & Upland National Championships since 2004.   Dawn served as secretary of the Carolina Boykin Spaniel Retriever Club from 2002-2012 and has worked for the Boykin Spaniel Society since 2012.    Bill and Dawn both help with the CBSRC’s HRC hunt test held yearly usually in May.   Bill has served as judge and chairman of HRC events and and Dawn has served as HRC secretary/treasurer.     We are both dedicated to the Boykin Spaniel breed, to The Boykin Spaniel Society, The Boykin Spaniel Foundation and the regional Boykin spaniel clubs that serve the brown dog community and help educate the public and better our Boykin spaniel breed.   Our Boykins excel at upland hunting,  it is what they were bred to do and they love it.  They also enjoy dove and duck hunting.  We have traveled throughout the Southeast and the Midwest so that the girls have every opportunity to do what they were meant to do, hunt. Our wish for each of our wee little babies is to be loved and cherished and to be that one in a lifetime companionable gun dog.

Are Boykin Spaniels good house dogs?

The Boykin Spaniel is a tough, energetic, and enthusiastic hunting dog, yet gentle and contented in the home. An affectionate and fiercely loyal personality is a hallmark of the breed, and Boykins make wonderful family pets. They thrive on companionship, enjoying the company of children and other dogs.

What two breeds make a Boykin Spaniel?

Boykin crossbred several breeds of hunting dogs—including Chesapeake Bay Retrievers, Springer Spaniels, Cocker Spaniels, and American Water Spaniels—to develop the Boykin Spaniel as it's known today. But according to local lore, it all started with a mixed-breed spaniel named Dumpy.

Do Boykin Spaniel dogs shed?

The Basics of Boykin Spaniel Grooming The coat sheds moderately, but regular brushing will help keep dead hair off your furniture, floors and clothing. The rest is basic care. Trim the nails as needed, usually once a month.

Do Boykin Spaniels bark a lot?

Unlike other hunting breeds like the Redbone Coonhound, Boykin Spaniels aren't prone to howl or bark a lot. They also typically don't bark as much as the English Cocker Spaniel.
