About

Back in 1989 I designed Birchwood to be totally different with the care and comfort of all families pets when it came to boarding and grooming.Since 1982 Birchwood has stood for quality with the line of English Springer Spaniels I became involved with so it was natural that the quality and care went into the business. I derived the kennel name of Birchwood for it was on the corner of Keystone and Birchwood in Skokie, IL. that I had spent my childhood.

Keystone being the name of one of the English Springer Spaniel Clubs knocked that personal kennel name out so Birchwood was free and clear.There were two other English Springer Spaniel lines, long in the past, 1930's and 1950's that came and went with the name of Birchwood so I figured,
