The Flat-coated Retriever is a gundog originating from the United Kingdom. It was developed as a retriever both on land and in the water.

The Flat-coated Retriever standard call for males to be 23-24.5 inches (58-62 cm) tall at the withers and for females to be 22-23.5 (56-60 cm), with a recommended weight of 45-75 lbs. (24-34 kg). Flta-coated Retrievers have strong muscular jaws and a relatively long muzzle to allow for the carrying of birds and upland game (info from Wikipedia).

    Beautiful. My aunt has an adorable two year old, and this is a stunning portrait.

  • I believe they come in two colors so I’m probably going to do another with both colors represented. And thank you!
