Moose the Boykin

Here's to my first all-mine dog: Moose, born 3/15/18. Also featuring my cats, Hallie and Nova, along with my mom's dogs, Gracie and Cruz.

Do your ears flip-flop? Can you use them as a mop? Are they stringy at the bottom? Are they curly at the top? Can you use them for a swatter? Can you use them for a blotter? Do your ears flip-flop?

Moose frolicking in an actual meadow! I'd say his first park trip was a success!

Double browns!

This boy is feeling a bit off after his last round of puppy shots, but he's still too cute for words. He's finally got the first bit of that Boykin head fluff coming in too! Hopefully the Mohawk stage lasts a little while!

IF MY DOG COULD TALK A classic, with illustration.

I'm housesitting for my friend and his mom, so I get to spend lots of time with this lovely lady! Hershey was my inspiration to get Moose, so it's nice to hang out with her and look toward the future with my own Boykin!

I'd say Moose's first puppuccino was a hit.

Somebody's growing up fast and hanging out with the big dogs!

Moose is home! I’ve had him for 4 days now and he’s already shaping up to be a great puppy! He’s fantastic in the car and we’ve already been on adventures to the vet, the school where I work, and the academy where I practice jiu jitsu. He’s tough and loves playing with my mom’s 4-month-old Springer like there’s no size difference. He’s also showing us how smart he is! He’s already figured out sitting on command, including before getting toys, treats, and going through doors (for the most part 😆). He’s just what I wanted in a puppy, despite his definite mischievous streak and love of tugging EVERYTHING (towels, clothes, cords, you name it).

Here’s to many more amazing weeks, months, and years to come! I love you Moose!

The Boykin Spaniel. 01/30/14

The Boykin Spaniel is considered one of the best field and family dogs to be bred. They were bred by South Carolinians in the 1900’s who desired a mid size retriever ideal for duck and turkey hunting. The first reported Boykin began as a stray in Spartanburg whose name was “Dumpy” and owner was Alexander L. White. White took the pup home and noticed its desire to retrieve. Dumpy was sent to White’s hunting partner, Whit Boykin who trained the dog to become a superb turkey and waterfowl retriever. Dumpy became the foundation stock for the Boykin Spaniel and a breed was born. Today, Boykins can be found across the nation filling duck blinds, dove fields and family beds.
