The Curly-Coated Retriever is a breed of dog recognized for its unusual curly coat, which is the defining attribute of the breed.

The following are some salient features and facts regarding Curly-Coated Retrievers: As the name suggests, Curly-Coated - Coat: Retrievers have a characteristic curly coat that is water-resistant. When they are out in the rain or snow fetching game, they can stay dry and warm thanks to their tight, curly hair. - They have a distinct look and are strong and muscular dogs. They have a striking, tight, curly coat with a wedge-shaped head and long, powerful neck. Their tails are held straight and may be feathered, and their ears are small and shaped like pendants. - Curly-Coated Retrievers have an independent spirit and are noted for their intelligence and loyalty. They have an air of self-assurance about them, and while they may be aloof or reticent with outsiders, they are fiercely loyal to their loved ones. They are a breed known for their intelligence and independence; therefore training and socialization may take some time. - Curly-Coated Retrievers are expert retrievers since they were originally designed for hunting ducks. Their water-resistant coat makes them particularly adept at collecting prey from bodies of water. They are outstanding hunting dogs due to their hardiness and resilience in the face of adversity. - Because of their high levels of energy, these dogs need plenty of daily walks and other physical activity. They like activities like swimming, running, and playing fetch.

Their coat will need regular brushing and combing, as well as the odd cut, to look its best.

Medical, Genetic & Behavioral Risk Factors of Curly-Coated Retrievers by Ross D. Clark, DVM Pdf

This book (Curly-Coated Retriever) provides you with a through description and positive attributes of this breed including origin, purpose, history, normal heights and weights, acceptable colors and behavioral traits. Our books differ from most books on dog breeds because this book also provides you with a comprehensive and authoritative source of all the known predisposed hereditary health syndromes for the breed. You will find extensive references for each problem described. We also provide the breed club address for this breed and a list of laboratories and organizations that can provide professional help and information. As a small animal veterinarian, I have always been intrigued by the way dogs have been bred to fill a purpose in life and further impressed that they also tend to love performing that service. Greyhounds and other sight hounds are built for speed with aerodynamic bodies consisting of small head, deep chest, narrow waist and large leg muscles. On the other hand Dachshunds take their name from German words meaning “badger dog” and they use their long nose, long body and short legs to both track, enter and dig into badger dens. After developing a practice that catered to clients with show dogs, my interest in each breed continued to grow as I studied and observed more and more about the unique predisposition and incidence of health problems in each breed. Breeders of purebred dogs for show were a challenge and inspirational for me to research and help them with their unique health problems. Historically references to hereditary problems are scattered throughout various Veterinary medical texts and journals such as ophthalmology, neurology, gastroenterology, cardiovascular and dermatology. This book, as well as the other books and articles I have written, is researched and compiled with the intention to provide both veterinarians and dog owners with comprehensive and authoritative predisposition information under the breed name. At the date of this publication, The American Kennel Club Canine Health Foundation and the The Kennel Club of England reports over 400 known hereditary health syndromes throughout the dog kingdom. At the writing of my first book in 1983, less than 50 hereditary issues are able to be predicted and or diagnosed. Sequencing of the canine genome, DNA tests, metabolic testing including blood tests and urine testing; plus, phenotypic examinations such as radiographs, ultrasound, and CERF or OFA eye registry exams by a Board Certified Veterinary Ophthalmologist have advanced the science of breed related health and behavioral problems. This book will provide veterinarians, researchers, pet owners and breeders with a comprehensive guide to all the known problems veterinarians and dog owners should consider during pet selection and throughout each life stage of our canine friends.
