Julia and I would not have missed Sherwood's first real point for the world. He fumbled around the first two points by the other dog and then he magically went on point on the third . . .
A sign of good bloodlines and breeding!

Carey Knowles Boykins and Brittanies in McRae, Georgia, is where we found Sherwood. I would highly recommend them. A friend has a Boykin from him too

Parker, a recent Boykin rescue, turns four in April. He's almost push button and we are working on double retrieves. Unfortunately, he's afraid of fireworks, etc. (That was his name when I got him.)

Gator was a rescue and he made us a big believer in rescues

Sherwood celebrated today by going out in the marsh and coming back the same color as Harry's Boykin.

I have never met a dog that didn't like mud.

Dad called tonight just to say how proud he was. Something he never does. Mom won't let him have hunting dogs now and they are stuck with her ornamental dogs

A friend has a setter who has never met a mud puddle she didn't like. It took some work to get Ike but it was even harder to get him a girlfriend I just up and put the deposit on her now we wait for the breeding to take place.
