Remember that genetics can be random and sometimes puppies will take on the dominant traits of either Poodle or Retriever, no matter what label of generation. We have had super curly coats and flat coats come from lines that surprised us even after reviewing DNA tests. By 8 weeks of age we can usually tell how a puppy’s coat is going to be and we can help guide you towards your needs.
