Q&A
answer · Chesapeake Bay Retriever
Yes, I highly recommend the Chesapeake Bay Retriever. They are incredibly loyal and great for active families. One thing that stands out is their love for water; they were bred to retrieve waterfowl, so they thrive around lakes and rivers. They are also protective and make excellent watchdogs. Just be prepared for their thick coat, which requires regular grooming.

Yes, my Chesapeake can be surprisingly determined when she wants something. It's impressive!
answer · Chesapeake Bay Retriever
You are not imagining it. I stopped expecting dignity. It makes life funnier. We have a running joke in the house that the dog thinks they run security, entertainment, and quality control.

She once tried to chase after a squirrel and ended up in the fountain. It was so funny to watch!
answer · Chesapeake Bay Retriever
No. Next question. Morning run plus afternoon training or we pay for it at night.
