History:

Explore the origin of the Chesapeake Bay Retriever in England, but there is no complete and reliable record of its development. But its breeding origin described here is probably correct, and so far it is accepted by most people.

In 1807, a British brig wrecked off the coast of Maryland, USA. The crew and cargo were rescued by the American ship "Conton", as well as two dirty red males in Newfoundland and one. The dogs were named "Sailor," and a little black bitch named "Conton" was named after being rescued and given as a gift to a gentleman who was very friendly to the wrecked crew. Although we don't know Whether the two dogs "sailor" and "conton" were ever bred together, but many common dogs used for hunting at that time were cross-bred with them. Gradually, other distantly related dog breeds were also used for cross-breeding with them. Of all these dogs, the English Otterhound is claimed to be one of the most influential breeds. However, such crossbreeding could have produced different results, since the Chesapeake Bay Retriever did not exhibit the ability to track. If some breeding methods had been purposefully adopted at the time, it was probably the Flat-Coated Retriever that carried out the most important outbreeding.

By the time the AKC was formed in 1884, a definite Chesapeake Bay Retriever breeds have developed and are known for their outstanding performance in the violent, icy waters of the Chesapeake Bay. These dogs are often required to hunt 100 to 200 teals in a day from the waters of the bay. One named Anthony Bliss There are several differences noted in his history between this type of dog and the present Chesapeake Bay Retriever. For one, the dog was found to have only one color - dark brown, graduating to a A reddish sedge color (a dull grass color popular in the American Midwest). Also has a head that is more wedge-shaped and has a longer and thicker coat.

Today, in 1918 Under the leadership of the American Chesapeake Bay Retriever founded in 2000, the breed is active in all areas of AKC racing. The club held its first licensed test in 1932, and in recent years this activity It has gradually become important in show competition, obedience and tracking tests. To this day, the Chesapeake Bay Retriever is still an unusual water dog and a subject of debate in some clubs. Club (wD) or Excellent Dog The club (WDX) has issued a certificate for this breed that has passed the land and water game inspections.

The coat should be thick and short, no more than 1.5 inches long anywhere, with a thick, fine, wooly undercoat. The hair on the face and legs is very short and straight, and the hair on the shoulders, neck, back and waist is slightly wavy.

The texture of the Chesapeake Hound's coat is very important. In the Chesapeake region, hunting is possible in any harsh weather, often working in ice and snow. The oils on the outer coat and undercoat are extremely important and valuable, protecting the Chesapeake's skin from cold water and helping to dry out moisture quickly. The Chesapeake Hound's coat is as waterproof as its feathers. When he got out of the water and shook his body, the coat held no moisture at all, just a little damp.

Disqualification: A curly coat or a general tendency to curl is a disqualification. Feathers longer than 1.75 inches on the tail and legs are disqualified.

Disqualification: Black; disqualification is white anywhere on the body except on the chest, abdomen, toes, and behind the feet.

[gait]

The gait should be smooth, stretch without effort, and give the impression of great power and power. When viewed from the side, the forequarters move in unconstrained extension, the hindquarters generate great thrust, and the knees and hocks are well flexed. As it comes towards you, you can see that the elbows are not turned outwards. When the Chesapeake Hound leaves you, there is no sign of bull legs on the hindquarters. As speed increases, the claws converge toward the centerline of the body due to gravity.
