Boykin Spaniel Invasion Tour

Meet Branch

Hello everybody! Boy, am I glad to see you. My name is Branch and I’m a Boykin spaniel. My breed is pretty special—it was born and bred in South Carolina.

Learn all about me and my relatives in the video below. Then, find me and my friends scattered about Camden.

The Story of the Boykin Spaniel

Find Me & My Friends

Now that you know who I am and where I come from – I need your help. I came to Camden with all my friends and now I’ve lost them. We’ve scattered all over downtown Camden looking for places to play. Can you help me find my friends? Tired of looking? Check here for the answers.

See If you find all twelve of the puppies, take your picture with the puppies and post them to our Facebook page or bring them to the Revolutionary War Visitor Center at 212 Broad Street. Everyone who finds all of the puppies will receive a Certificate of Discovery.
