Dear BSCBAA Members,
I would like to thank the board for reelecting me for another
term as your president. I look forward to the coming years’
opportunities and challenges as the club continues its journey to becoming fully licensed by the AKC to hold various
venues. I thank the three board members ending their tenure (Ginger Hurley, Pat Watts, and Carole Thomas) for the
time and effort they have provided this club during their
three year term on the board. I also welcome our three firsttime ever board members (Jeff Engelmann, Jacquelin DeAngelo, and Troy Blalock) and two returning board members
(Dan Reel and Butch Norckauer). I look forward to them

BSCBAA President’s Letter Continued
helping us grow and prosper
in the coming years.
We have completed a very
busy May/June with our Annual meeting being held in
conjunction with a four day
dog show in Biloxi, MS. As
part of the four day event the
club held our first supported
entry show on Saturday and
had the largest entry of
Boykins ever at an AKC event.
I would like to thank Leslie
Kern and my wife Sharon who
co-chaired the event and
made it a success. It was
good to see all the Boykins
and their owners many who
traveled some distance to be
at the show. For the four days
of the show we had many
different dogs placing, achieving Majors, or finishing a title.
This just showed the quality
of the dogs we were able to
assemble for these shows.
See below a note from our
Supported Entry Judge, Debbie Verdon:
Dan, President
From Judge Verdon
Members of Boykin
Spaniel Club:
It was my honor to
judge your first AKC
supported entry in Biloxi.

The board has started the

the events. We do plan a

BSCBAA SUPPORTED ENTRY
Written by Sharon Kauzlarich
Boykins in Biloxi
June 1, 2013 marked a historical event for the Boykin Spaniel Club and Breeders Association of
America with nineteen Boykins competing in the BSCBAA’s first Supported Entry at the Riverside West Kennel Club’s dog show in Biloxi, MS.
A supported entry is one where the parent club organizes special events around an AKC allbreed dog show. Most supported entries will draw a larger- than- normal entry for the breed
thus allowing dogs to vie for those hard-to-find “Majors”. The BSCBAA chose the Pelican Cluster held in Biloxi for our event. This venue not only allowed participants to show their dogs in
the Supported Entry but also to showcase their Boykins in three additional all-breed dog shows.
The entries for all four days were the largest number of Boykins to show in one location. It was
a sight to see so many “Little Brown Dogs” in one ring.
For the Supported Entry the Riverside West Kennel Club supplied beautiful rosettes to each
class winner and to those Boykins taking home Best of Breed, Best of Opposite Sex, and Select.
In addition, the BSCBAA presented an
engraved stone or brick trophy to each of
these winners as well. The trophies, in
part, were sponsored by members of our
club. Each trophy was personalized with
the BSCBAA logo as well as the event
name and date. In addition Club president, Dan Kauzlarich, presented flowers
to the Best of Breed winner, GCH Pocotligo’s Nama Karoo MH, owner Christina
Gebhard & Kim Parkman. BSCBAA Members that won will be featured on page 6.
Judge Deborah Verdon was appreciative of
the nice entry presented to her.

BOYKIN SPANIEL JUDGES EDUCATION
SEMINAR AND HANDS ON WORKSHOP—BILOXI
Boykin Spaniel Judges Education
Seminar and Hands On Workshop
Saturday, June 1, 2013, the BSCBAA
provided a Boykin Spaniel Judges
Education Seminar and Hands On
Workshop in Biloxi, MS, copresented by AKC Parent Club Approved Seminar Presenters. The
Seminar and Workshop were held
in combination with the first Boykin
Spaniel AKC Supported Entry Dog
Show in conjunction with the Riverside West Kennel Club of Greater
New Orleans. In addition to judges,
a number of BSCBAA members also
attended to further their education
on conformation of the Boykin
Spaniel.
The hands-on workshop portion of
the seminar was very exciting due
to the number and variety of Boykin
Spaniels that the judges had an opportunity to physically view and put
their hands on. When judges questions arose, it was nice to have such
great examples of the breed readily
available to help answer with a
stack, a gait, a look or a touch.
To Submit
A couple of the judges
joined the BSCBAA members at
our annual banquet. All the
judges were excited about the
relatively new AKC breed and
were already very knowledgeable with the Boykin Spaniel
Breed Standard.

Boykin Spaniel Rescue
AKC QUICK TIPS FOR THE SUMMER
If kept outside, make sure your pet has plenty of shade. Remember that doghouses are
not good shelter during the summer as they can trap heat.
Make sure your dog has access to plenty of cool, fresh water 24 hours a day. If your
dog travels with you, bring along water and a bowl.
Never leave your dog in a vehicle on a warm day. Even with the windows open the
temperature inside a car can rise to over 100 degrees in a matter of minutes.
It's fun to take your dog with you to run errands, but if you can't bring your dog inside
the store, it's best to leave him home. Tying a dog outside a store is dangerous because he is exposed to the hot sun and strangers who could be unkind.
Avoid strenuous exercise on extremely hot days. Take walks in the early mornings or
evenings, when the sun's heat is less intense.
Make sure your dog's vaccinations are up-to-date. Dogs tend to stay outdoors longer
and come into contact with other animals more during the summer months.
If you are interested in saving a
Boykin, visit the Boykin Spaniel Rescue - link is below:
www.boykinspanielrescue.org/
Or email [email protected]
Keep dogs off lawns that have been chemically treated or fertilized for 24 hours (or according to package instructions),
and away from potentially toxic plants and flowers. Visit www.akc.org/pdfs/public_education/hazardous_plants.pdf for
a list of toxic plants.
Mosquitoes (which carry heartworm disease) along with fleas and ticks are more prevalent in warmer months. Ask your
veterinarian for an effective preventive to keep these parasites off your dog.
Chlorine from pools and bacteria from streams, lakes and ponds can be toxic for a dog's system. Always rinse your dog
with clean water after swimming. Beware of the wildlife that may pose a danger to your swimming pet.
Many airlines will not ship animals during summer months due to dangers caused by hot weather. Some will only allow
dogs to fly in the early morning or in the evening. Check with your airlines for specific rules. Shipping policies can be
found at www.akc.org/pdfs/canine_legislation/airline_chart_0605.pdf.
If traveling by car, keep your dog cool by putting icepacks such as frozen water bottles in his crate. DO NOT use freezer
ice packs which contain poisonous materials. Make sure the crate is well ventilated. For more traveling tips visit
www.akc.org/public_education/travel.cfm.
Be aware that asphalt can quickly get hot enough to burn the pads of dogs' paws. In hot weather, walk your dog on the
grass or dirt where is it cooler.

DOG OWNERSHIP BRINGS FAMILIES TOGETHER
Dog Ownership Brings Families Together
Owning a dog can be a great way to bring your family together, get exercise and become involved in activities that are enriching for both
dog and owner. In fact, according to the AKC 21st Century Dog Owners Survey, 88% percent said that they consider their four-legged friend
to be a member of the family. And, not surprisingly, 90% said they got a dog for companionship. So I've developed my Top 10 list of things
you can do with your dog as your family member and companion.
1. Travel "canine" style: Pile your family into the car for a daytrip and visit dog-friendly parks, or beaches, (most parks indicate on their web
sites whether and in what areas of the park dogs are allowed). Or if you're up for a bigger excursion, consider a vacation with your best
friend. Check ahead for lodging that accepts dogs. If flying, ask about travel accommodations for your dog when you make your reservations.
2. Enroll in canine training classes: Puppy kindergarten, agility, obedience, rally or performance courses are great ways to train your dog,
and if your entire family attends, all will be on the same page in regard to training techniques.
3. Become active in competitive dog sports: Showing your canine companion in AKC Conformation, or participating in Obedience and Agility competitions is a family affair. AKC's Junior Showmanship program allows children from ages 9-18 to compete in conformation and performance events, attend seminars, and earn scholarships while bonding with your dog. The events offer opportunities to get involved, stay
fit, meet new friends and just have fun!
4. Take the AKC Canine Good Citizen challenge: Enlist your family members to train your dog to achieve her AKC Canine Good Citizen certification, designed to reward dogs that have good manners at home and in the community.
5. Dogs with jobs: Keep your dog active and alert by giving her tasks to complete. Kids can teach her to fetch their dirty laundry and put it
in the hamper, while Mom and Dad can train her to fetch the morning paper, carry groceries or empty the dryer.
6. Encourage breed behavior: Find family activities that will encourage your dog to fulfill her breed's purpose, such as retrieving (playing
fetch in a swimming pool) or becoming a certified therapy dog (ideal for small companion breeds).
7. Responsibilities don't have to be "ruff": Assigning roles and responsibilities to care for your new four-legged friend can help you and
your family work together. Decide who will be responsible for feeding, walking, grooming, etc. Prepare a schedule before bringing your
puppy home and assign each family member a task.
8. Visit the vet: A trip to the veterinarian can be a good learning experience for the entire family. Routine check-ups will help keep your dog
in top form and can also help teach the children a thing or two about the importance of health and well-being.
9. Help your dog help others: Dogs are invaluable in providing service to humans — visiting the sick, helping the disabled, locating missing
persons, and much more. If your dog is of the correct temperament, your family and she can reap the rewards of helping others together!
10. Spend some downtime with your dog: Simply put, one of the greatest things you and your family can do with your dog is play! So start
a game of fetch with Fido - playing with your new friend isn't only fun for her — it is guaranteed fun for the entire family!

TEXAS ALERT: WACO MAY CONSIDER MANDATORY SPAY/NEUTER
Tuesday, July 9, 2013
The American Kennel Club (AKC) has learned that the City of Waco, Texas, may soon consider a mandatory spay/neuter ordinance. The idea is currently under development by the
Waco Animal Welfare Advisory Board, and would have to appear before the City Council
before it becomes law.
The American Kennel Club strongly supports and actively promotes a wide range of programs to educate the public about responsible purebred breeding practices and the responsibilities of dog ownership. We oppose the concepts of breeding permits, breeding bans,
or mandatory spay/neuter of dogs. Instead, we support reasonable and enforceable laws
that protect the welfare and health of purebred dogs and do not restrict the rights of
breeders and owners who meet their responsibilities.
As currently drafted, the idea would require all domestic animals in the City of Waco to be
spayed or neutered, except:

animals under four months of age;

animals due to health reasons certified by a veterinarian to be unfit for sterilization
procedures;

animals trained for and used in police and rescue work; and

animals used for show.
The draft ordinance would also make numerous other changes to the City’s animal ordinance. These changes would include a new definition of animal abandonment, humane
tethering provisions, mandatory microchipping requirements, and repeal of the current
intact animal permit.
