Boykin or Springer
Hey guys, I'm new to the website and I need some advice. I am hoping to buy my first hunting dog and I have narrowed it down to the Boykin spaniel and the Springer Spaniel. I am from northern Wisconsin, so I've grown up hunting ruffed grouse (without a dog). This dog would primarily be used for ruffed grouse, pheasants, and ducks. Which do you guys feel would be best? I went to a boykin breeder and his dogs were amazing! My only concern is they are quite small. Does that matter much for pheasants or ruffed grouse? People who have or have had these breeds have any suggestions?
