Curly-Coated Retriever Puppy For Sale

The Curly-Coated Retriever is a unique, family-friendly dog. They love exercise, especially playing in water, hunting, or retrieving anything you’re willing to throw their way. Curly-Coated Retrievers can be a little headstrong, but if you’re patient and can provide them with good ways to channel their energy, they’re wonderful companions. Full-grown, they typically weigh 60-95 pounds and stand 23-27 inches tall.

Curly-Coated Retrievers are generally excellent with children of all ages. Curly-Coated Retrievers fit best in families who will be able to spend plenty of time taking them out for daily exercise and are willing to be patient with a somewhat headstrong dog. They're moderate barkers — they'll alert you when something's up but aren't excessive.

Curly-Coated Retrievers need daily exercise, which will help them burn off energy they may otherwise spend chewing on your couch cushion! A daily walk, hike, or game of fetch will keep your Curly-Coated Retriever happy and tired enough to curl up in your lap for a snuggle at the end of the day. Overall, their exercise needs are high.

In keeping with their moniker, the Curly-Coated Retriever’s coat consists of small, tight curls that won't comb out when brushed. You’ll want to brush them before you give them a bath, which only needs to be done about once a month or less, depending on how much outdoor fun they've been having. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.

Curly-Coated Retrievers are best suited for a house with a good-sized yard. They usually don’t do too well with being left alone in the house when they're younger, so you’ll need a plan to for them if you work during the day. They fit best in a home with a yard but can live without one if you are diligent about taking them out to play every day. They are fairly easy to train.
