Charwin Curly Coated Retrievers


Read Dodger's and Proxy's training blogs!

Established in 1975, our goal is to produce Curlies that can do well in any dog sport; no other breeder in the US can come close to our record for producing winners in multiple venues. We also expect superb temperaments, high trainability and excellent health - we don't always get it all in one package but we keep trying! Located in sunny Southern California, we are a small operation with generally no more than four adults living here and no co-owned dogs or co-bred litters. Rarely more than one litter a year and usually less than that!

Currently, Charwin-bred Curlies hold 216 titles from 17 litters, a total of 101 individual dogs:

* 42 Chs, including 8 Group placers and 2 National Specialty BOB winners.
* 59 obedience titles, including three all breed High In Trial winners and the breed's fourth Obedience Trial Champion
* 28 agility titles
* 64 field titles - the first WCX, WCQ, SR, JH, WR, SH, MHR or GMHR Curly; & 4 CCRCA Field Trophy winners,
including the only 3 time winner
* 7 ROMs, 3 ROMXs and 6 HOF
 * 7 CGC/TT/TDI

This despite the fact that most of our pups go to working/pet homes where they never earn a title other than loving companion and/or "huntin' dawg". Of the Charwin bred dogs who have actually competed, they have an average of over 5 titles each!
