More than 100 years ago an English brig was drecked off the coast of Maryland. The crew and cargo and two Newfoundland puppies, a male and female, wore rescued by au American ship. These dogs proved wonderful retrievers. They were bred f with the Maryland hounds and, through years of breeding and cross breeding, there emerged what we now know as the Chesapeake Day Retriever. By 1SS") there had been developed a type of dog which often, retrieved more than 200 ducks a day In the icy, rough waters of Chesapeake Day, but that, of course, was a long tune ago.?Prom The American Wildlife Institute.
