Known for its cheerful attitude and glossy flat black or liver coat, the Flat-Coated Retriever is popular as a hunting dog and a show dog. Slow to mature, these dogs need a patient owner who appreciates their long-lived puppyhood and can work on training activities every day. Flat-Coated Retrievers reach 60-70 pounds when fully grown, and their hunting background means they need lots of exercise and space to run and play.

The dogs of Connecticut are welcomed into many varied establishments, from breweries and salons to parks and campsites. If you and your furry pal are outdoor enthusiasts, you’ll enjoy the Southbury Dog Park, the Bear Mountain Reservation and the Jennings Dog Beach. You’ll find plenty of hiking trails and campgrounds where the two of you can run around and play throughout Connecticut. If you’re both looking for something a bit more cosmopolitan, take a stroll along Evergreen Walk and go right into the boutique shops you find along the way. Leashed dogs can explore the Mystic Seaport Museum shipyard and Mystic River in a small boat alongside their family members.
Like most Americans, the favourite dog of most people in Connecticut is the Labrador Retriever.
You can hike the Cascades trail at Mohegan Lake with your dog off-leash!
Dogs are allowed in the pet-friendly SoNo Collection Mall alongside their owners.
