English Cream Retrievers are bred from an English line which descends from Golden Retrievers. In fact, they are widely considered to be the same breed. English Creams carry the same liveliness, and charm, and instincts as the Golden Retriever, but in an ivory package.
Retrievers are loyal dogs who love to please their owner. They love people of all ages and are easy to train, picking up new tricks quickly.
English Cream Retrievers have a lifespan of 10-12 years. They are predisposed to the same health problems as Golden Retrievers: hip issues, knee problems, and eye disorders. The parents’ health plays a large role, so it is important to find a responsible breeder.
English Cream Retrievers require minimal grooming. Brushing them once or twice a week helps with shedding. Otherwise, their nails should be trimmed monthly along with regular teeth and ear care.
Proper exercise is important when it comes to the physical and mental health of the English Cream Retriever. This breed thrives on a daily exercise, with the length of these sessions lessoning as they age. They enjoy active adventures like hikes, swims, and walks.
English Cream Retrievers stand 21-25 inches tall and weigh between 55 and 75 pounds.
