One of the oldest types of retrievers, this breed is easily identified by his extremely tight, water-resistant curls, which can be black or liver in color. A multi-purpose pup, the Curly-Coated Retriever works very hard and can retrieve in the iciest of waters. He is agile, strong and highly intelligent.
This breed is great for families who enjoy the outdoors and like to stay active. If the Curly-Coated Retriever doesn’t get adequate exercise, he starts to get bored and can turn to destructive behavior.
