Care Tips for Curly coated retrievers

1

Regular Grooming: Curly Coated Retrievers require consistent grooming to maintain their unique curls. Brush their coat weekly to prevent matting and remove loose hair, and consider professional grooming every few months to keep their coat in optimal condition.

2

Adequate Exercise: These active dogs need plenty of physical and mental stimulation. Ensure they get at least an hour of vigorous exercise daily, such as running, playing fetch, or swimming, to keep them healthy and happy.

3

Socialization and Training: Start socializing and training your Curly Coated Retriever early to ensure they develop good manners and confidence. Use positive reinforcement techniques and expose them to a variety of people, pets, and environments to foster a well-rounded temperament
