Mount Pleasant Pets 2021-22

The Boykin is first and foremost a hunting compan- ion, but they are also very versatile dogs. Boykins are loyal, affectionate and social, always ready to go for a walk or boat ride. There are other avenues to explore as well, such as obedience training, therapy dog train- ing, scent work, dock diving and more. You may find yourself interested in conformation and the oppor- tunity to educate the general public about Boykins. Whatever activity you choose, these devoted dogs are easy to please, with a willingness to learn. If you want to foster or adopt, there is a Boykin Spaniel Rescue that can always use volunteers to further its mission to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home at-risk purebreds. Having a Boykin — or two, or three — is a reward- ing journey. And, of course, there is something to be said for enjoying the great outdoors of our state with the official dog of South Carolina by your side. Leslie Kern at Thornhill Kennels has been a Boykin spaniel breeder for 15 years and is a Gold Level Preferred Breeder with the Boykin Spaniel Society and a Breeder of Merit with the AKC. Her dogs hunt and compete in hunt tests and field trials, as well as many of the other sports opportunities available in the BSS, UKC and AKC. She lives in Beaufort with her husband, Beau, and their eight Boykin spaniels.
