I don't have one but they are one of my favourite breeds! I hope to own one someday:D Your dog is beautiful by the way, Welcome to PT I hope you enjoy it here.
Yup, sure is a cutie-pie!!! :D :D
By the way, what's the difference between a flatcoated one and the others? :confused:

Flat-Coated Retrievers are much different from the others, just like Labs are different from Tollers and goldens are different from Curly-Coats. Flat-Coats don't weigh as much as the other Retrievers usually and they have medium length straight hair. they can come in Black and sometimes Liver occasionally there are some yellow ones. Flat-Coats are sometimes a bit more active than other retrievers and they are more slender built. Their Heads are more wedge shaped than the others too:D They are gorgeous dogs!If you ever watch a show called good dog, the host has a Flat-coat named Oden and a Toller named Dancer. I hope I helped a little.
Thanks:)
One of the major differences between flatties and other retrievers (well, at least labs and goldens, don't know that much about the others;)) is that they aren't as divided into "show" flats and "working" flats. They're also often a bit more active, bouncy and silly than other retrievers. :D

That's really true too! I think they have similar personalities to Duck Tolling Retrievers in some ways:D do you have any more pics of your beautiful boy?

Yeah, they and tollers do seem to share some nice traits!;) :D I was actually considering gettomg a toller, but I prefer bigger dogs and flatties are taller.
