Geschichte


The Curly-Coated Retriever, or Curly, dates back to England in the late 1700's and was used in bird hunting and water fowl retrieval. It probably descends from the Irish Water Spaniel and later further crosses with the Poodle to produce an excellent water dog, with tight curls that repel water and prevent it being caught in under growth. It was one of the first breeds to be shown in England.

Verhalten


The Curly is a fun loving, exuberant dog, that enjoys family life. They make wonderful pets and are good around children. Often reserved with strangers, but rarely aggressive. They have a decent low bark, but rarely use it. Curlies are devoted to their family and benefit from early socialisation around people and other dogs to prevent future problems. They are quite slow to mature, acting like big daft puppies for the first couple of years, but are gentle and loving and will be happy to please you. They are intelligent dogs who get easily bored. As a working 'gun dog' breed they do need a function. If you are unable to 'work' with them in the field, then lots of play time is needed to prevent them becoming destructive. Agility, and retrieval competitions are a good way to expel their masses of energy. Recall is usually good once they have grown out of the puppy stage. They have a huge appetite for walks and masses of energy, so a long daily walk is needed to tire them out. Once walked, they will happily relax in the home and are undemanding. They make ideal pets for an outdoor-orientated person, as they have endurance and want to be with you all day. Curlies like to swim and be around water. Throwing a toy into the water for them to fetch will provide hours of fun for a Curly. Training needs to be calm, yet firm. They get bored easily with repetitive commands, so best to change tactics often. They are quite clever at picking things up, so you can train relatively quickly.

The coat needs brushing every so often when the dog is shedding, but brushing too often will affect the tight curls. Scissoring may be done to tidy up the coat, but this is usually minimal. The coat generally looks after it's self and dries quickly. Attention to prevent matting is needed. They come in solid black or liver. They are a healthy breed with only Canine Hip Dysplasia being more common.
