I knew a standard poodle that could climb trees.

Speaking of standard poodles, I saw one pass its HRCH. It caused quite a crowd.

I also saw a Boykin Spaniel get its HR. That had a bunch of people scratching their heads.

Since we're right next door to South Carolina, Mother Church of the Boykins, I've seen a lot of Boykins doing quite well.

We always run into a lady from Columbia SC who has a big dog truck with 12-15 Boykins on it, running at all levels. She's real good with them, and has the UKC high point Boykin, Mule, on her truck. I think he's a GRHRCH but I'm not sure.

We just got through hosting the Grand in our local club this past weekend. I worked the Banquet and came on home (didn't have motel reservations and my dogs of course aren't anywhere near that level) so I didn't see them run. But I saw from the premium list that Pam was there with a Boykin or two. (The good news is that I won a raffle for a training bag full of goodies, including 4 Avery Real Bird dummies! I never have won a raffle before in my life! I also got a really good deal in the auction on a new multi-dog E-collar! Of course, now I have to sell my old one . . . .)

Upthread I mentioned some folks in our club who have 3 Standard poodles and are trying to emulate the one who got its HRCH (and made the UKC Hunting Retriever News too). But it's not going very well for them right now - dogs don't like to get their fur wet.

These would be field tests? Sorry, I’m not a regular dog person, I guess.
