Summary
About Curly Coated Retriever
The Curly Coated Retriever is an athletic, medium‑large gundog with a dense, waterproof curly coat in black or liver. Intelligent, independent, loyal and reserved with strangers, it needs substantial daily exercise, thoughtful training, and moderate, curl‑specific grooming.
