Puppy Love/ Curly-Coated Retriever

Considered the oldest breed of retriever, the Curly-Coated Retriever was developed as early as the 1500s in England. Its bloodline may include the Irish Water Spaniel, the Poodle, and various breeds of setter.

This dog loves water and grows to a fairly good size, weighing in at between 55 and 75 pounds. If you own a Curly-Coated Retriever, you need to give your dog a lot of exercise.

What “breed” do you consider yourself, the Happy Couch Potato or the Gotta Get Moving? I think I have a little of each!

I hope you enjoy the puppy photos below!

Blessings!
