Curly Coated Retriever Food can be extremely expensive to purchase, primarily due to the large size of the breed. Whilst no unique Food is required, Curly Coated Retrievers will eat Food in excessive amounts, easily working their way through bags containing several kilos of Food per week.
Many owners of a Curly Coated Retriever feed their dog on normal Food that is suitable for humans. This type of Food consists of fresh meat, such as chicken or fish, mixed with equal amounts of a naturally produced Food such as brown rice and organic vegetables. Becoming increasingly popular, particularly with larger dog breeds, this Food can save a great amount of money on Food budgets, due to the ingredients being suitable for both human and dog meals.
With the excessive amount of Food that the Curly Coated Retriever can consume, regular exercise is required to ensure that the dog does not become overweight and develop health problems, but also that they maintain healthy growth rate throughout the life - particularly when the Curly Coated Retriever is still growing at it's fastest time when it is a puppy.
