Frequently Asked Questions
About Flat Coated Retriever Puppies

What makes Flat Coated Retrievers special?
Flat Coated Retrievers are close relatives of Golden Retrievers. They are happy-go-lucky at all times, and love people. Flat-Coated Retrievers have a never ending lust for fun, and food. They love people, and will always know how to put a smile on your face. Full-grown, they typically weigh 60-70 pounds and stand 22-25 inches tall.
Do Flat Coated Retrievers do well in a busy household?
Flat Coated Retrievers are generally excellent with children of all ages. They can be a little overzealous for toddlers, but are otherwise great with children. Flat-Coated Retrievers can get along just fine with your other pets, especially if they are raised with them around. They're moderate barkers — they'll alert you when something's up but aren't excessive.
Are Flat Coated Retrievers high-energy dogs?
Flat-Coated Retrievers have the stamina of a marathon runner, and then some. They need lots of exercise, every day. If you don’t exercise them properly, they’ll be frustrated, and may act out. Overall, their exercise needs are very high.
How much brushing and bathing does a Flat Coated Retriever need?
Flat-Coated Retrievers have a medium-long coat that’s actually pretty easy to maintain, but does shed quite a bit. As long as you brush their hair about once a week they’ll look as cute as ever, plus you’ll cut down a little bit on shedding. If your Flat-Coated Retriever hasn’t begged you to go swimming often enough, you’ll need to give them a bath every once in awhile. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.
Are Flat Coated Retrievers easy to train?
Flat Coated Retrievers are best suited for a house with a good-sized yard. With all that energy, a Flat-Coated Retriever fits best in a home where there’s easy access to a big yard or playspace. They are highly trainable and eager to learn.
