The Flat-Coated Retriever breed is known for generally producing great companion animals. Flat-Coated Retrieveres tend to be loyal and protective. Unfortunately for some people, their protectiveness tends to take the form of barking at anything unusual, a tendency they have to be trained to overcome. As a "bark" pointer breed, generations of Flat-Coated Retriever dogs were bred for their ability to locate hunted animals and bark.

Country/Region of Origin: United Kingdom

Original purpose: hunting birds

Name: often simply nicknamed "Flatcoat;" the breed was, a long time ago, called the "wavy-coated retriever," but successive generations developed more flat coats

Historical notes: The Flat-Coated Retriever breed was developed in the nineteenth century and was officially recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1915. In those early years, the breed's popularity and population spiked. But Flat-Coated Retrievers lost popularity to the new Golden Retriever, which had been bred by crossing the Flat-Coated Retriever dog breed with a few other breeds. By the end of World War II the breed was nearing extinction, only regaining some of its lost popularity in the 1960s.
