The first of the waterfowl-retrieving
breeds, the Curly is of British origin. His
likeness is depicted in sporting works of
art dating back 300 years. At one time,
the Curly was the gamekeeper's
favourite hunting dog, and is still
regarded as the most efficient retriever
of them all in New Zealand and Australia,
where it is worked on upland game as
well as waterfowl.
The Curly Coat is an active, well balanced dog that is "just off the square," only slightly longer than it is tall. It is at home in the water, in the field, or in your living room. Distinguishing it from all the other Retriever breeds is its uniquely textured, curly coat. This unusual coat is composed of very small, tight, waterproof curls which ideally extend from the back of the head down to the elbows and hocks and to the tip of its tail. The crisply curled coat forms a striking contrast to the face devoid of any curls -- the short hair growing naturally smooth and straight.
