We LOVE Reggie!!!! Emma sends lots of woofs. She asked me if she could be related to him. They certainly have the same markings. I had to explain to her yes, but way, way back. The English Spingers were first imported to Canada in 1913. A decade later they had become popular and eligible for AKC registration. In 1924 The English Springer Spaniel Field Trial Association was founded in the US. I believe the first field trials were based on Fishers Island N.Y.? Like UK there is Show & Field lines of the breed. You don't really see many of the breed here. You mostly see them in Texas, Georgia & the Dakotas. I asked my breeder about Emma's line. She is from working line from PA & GA. Sure you know this but if not wanted to share.
