- UPDATE: The lovely Artemis passed away on May 11, 2022 at 9 1/2 years old. She was truly loved and will be missed by many.
We brought home our Flat-coated retriever in Dec. 2012 - she just turned 10 months old...and I've been taking pictures and videos of her the ENTIRE time!

Beautiful.... ❤ i just lost my flattie 3 weeks ago. He was 10 years old. Little love of my life. Miss him terribly..
Absolutely the best breed, in my experience. One of the most family friendly, kid loving, and outdoors trail hiking/hunting dogs ever. Flat Coats do it all, and they do it without reservation, of unconditional love. Sadly, we lost our Oct. 2019, after 14 years of adventures, and enjoyment. She was rescued from Louisiana during the Katrina Hurricane, and quickly fit right in with our family of small grandkids. My constant companion all those years, is sorely missed.
Flats... the most awesome dog breed ever! :)
I agree! Thanks for watching.
loadofscrap Who doesn't???:D
Agreed 120% I miss our recently passed Molly Mae dearly. So much so, that it hurts watching this video.
Our Flat Coat is now 10. Those photos bring back great memories!!!
Nate J I love hearing about Flatcoats living long and happy lives. Thanks for watching.
I had a flatcoat who was my greatest companion. This video brought both laughter a tears to my eyes. Thank you!
So glad you liked it!
Beautiful, sweet pup!
I got our flat coat in September of 2013 and she is wonderful.
Susan Bergstrom Thanks for watching - have fun with you flatcoat!
I was like ‘’awww’’ every time a photo appeared 😂😭 she’s a lovely dog 😍
Now with my fourth Flatcoat and loving every minute, got a rescue 3 months ago who is now 18 months old and all the same, complete idiots, but absolutely adorable and will give you all the love you can handle and some more! Artemis is a fantastic looking Flatoat, keep the pics and videos coming, I love it.
+Blu i boy Four flatboats - that means you've led an extremely happy life! Thanks so much for watching and for the comment!
Thank you! Artemis is so much like our flat-coat, Nina. We drove from Denver to Illinois to get her as a puppy; she loved big sticks, is ball- and water-obsessed, learned to open our back door when she was about 8 months old -- and she is the sweetest, smartest, best, most beautiful dog we ever had. We are so fortunate to share our home with her while we can: she was diagnosed with lymphoma 9 months ago and despite chemo, the cancer returned once already. We wish Artemis a long and happy life!
My dog Rupert died a month ago from leukemia! Beautiful babies but they get cancer
Thanks for sharing. I lost my Flat Coat last August and I miss my Baci Boy every day. Definitely the best breed ever!
She's beautiful. Love this breed! They are so sweet.
To watch other Flatcoated retivers makes me feel alot better after our loss of our beloved Mimmi, 11 year old flatcoated female
Hi Eric - thanks for watching and posting. I'm sorry Mimmi is passed, but glad to hear you had 11 years with her. That's a day I don't even want to think about.
Thanks :)
remeber to enjoy every minute :)
I got a lump in my throat just watching this. What a beautiful dog. I have a 50/50 labrador & flat coated retriever and she is such a joy.
+Elan Morin Thanks so much for watching and commenting Elan! They really are a joy! Have fun with yours…I'm sure you will.
I lost my flattie last year at 15 years , "STEAM " - this helped my grief today.
I'm actually crying right now because I just recently lost one of my flatties, and I remember the days when he was little.
My mum just got her flat-coat a couple of weeks ago and we love her already so much! Can only imagine how much you miss yours. These are really awesome dogs!!!
this was weirdly emotional for a stranger who's never met the dog
Hi Hollay1000 - I will take that as a complete compliment. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. I was missing my "puppy" today. He just passed after 12 years with us as our alpha dog. We had three shelter dogs and the smartest one we found out was mostly a flat-coated retriever. We have tons of pictures of him but very little (only on an old phone) video. While we got him when he was around seven months, he still had that playful exuberance every day, even to near the end. He died two weeks ago of old age. Flat-Coated dogs are great. People just don't know how smart the dogs are. There are actually some in shelters too. We're not ready yet and probably can't bear to get another one so soon (especially a Flat-Coated because it would be probably too painful as a reminder of our Smokey every day).
If you've not experienced these guys (or girls), they are a joy. Enjoy your girl. She looks like a fantastic dog.
Michael, I'm so sorry for your loss. Flatties really are a joy. Thanks for watching and commenting!
That was so wonderful it made me cry. We're animal lovers too, and I don't know what we would do without our dog.
So glad you're giving your flatcoat a great home. Thanks for watching the video and for your comment.
I have a Flat Coat. His name is Gilbert.He weighs about 35 kilos and is the most fantastic companion ever.He is 20 months old and incredibly stubborn but the most amazing fun. Good luck with yours.
Colin Broad HI Colin...yes, Artemis is stubborn too, but she's growing out of that a little. She's 2+ now and acting more like a dog than a puppy. Have fun with Gilbert!
Thank you lulujay! This is my first Flat-coat...they really are the best dogs!
My daughter was given a Flatcoat retriever when she was away at college, After a year she brought her home to us maybe 2 years old then. She is such a sweet natured dog and has my heart. She is maybe about 7 now and has slowed down a great deal and I worry so at her aging as I know the worst day of my life will be when she passes
Stan Hughes They are such great dogs...I know how you feel - Artemis is 2 now, but I cannot even bear to think about that inevitable day...so I try to enjoy every moment with her now. Thanks for watching and posting!
I'm sorry to hear she has recently passed. I have always enjoyed this video throughout the years. I really like her favorite giant bone. My family had 4 flat coats overall.
Gorgeous dog, First I must say what kind of person would dislike a video this special? I will never understand. I just rescued a flattie. Sadly someone ran over his mother and I did not want him to share the same fate. Awesome breed and a great companion :)
Yanki Turan Thanks for the nice comment - I commend you for rescuing that dog! They really are fantastic dogs.
Rescued a year old black pup back in '08, planned on fostering her and adopting her out.
She'd spent the first year of her life alone in a backyard, was wild, no manners, but wanted to learn. We thought she was a springer/spaniel mix. Later we identified her as a flatcoat, and I tool her to a dog park every day for a year to reign in that wildness.
Needless to say, I fell in love with her, and she with me. I'll always have a flat coat from now on!
Loved this tribute to the most wonderful dogs in the world !!!
I will never be happy without a flat-coat in my life!! They are
the best !! Thank you !! and my flat-coat Zoe thanks you too!!
she's beautiful and so lucky to have such love
Thanks for watching!
Fantastic! Our FCR Bodie died few months back, we are getting psyched up for a new puppy!
+cv4wheeler Sorry about your dog. Have fun with the puppy! Thanks for watching!
She is Beautiful x i don't know what we would do without our flatty
Thanks Sara...they are simply great dogs.
thank you so much, she's at our home now, her name is vilma and she is so wonderful and cute. flat coats are the best!
Thanks so much, Terry.
Just want to say this is a wonderfl video of a bewautiful funny dog. I tripped across it researching Flat Coated Retrievers. You guys obviously love Artemis as much as he loves you! Nice job!
***** Thanks so much for the nice comment Douglas - glad you enjoyed it!
Artemis is so cute! Ive got a flat coated retriever called Zephy. He's now 14 weeks
This is fantastic!
Thanks!!
What a great dog and looked after by true dog lovers, thanks for this video.
Thanks for watching!
HI! what a beautiful flat coated!!! and compliments for the movie.
I' m waiting for mine flat coated , I will pick up her in 15 days and hope she will be funny as your. my fantastic golden retriever dead 2 weeks ago and I'm sure he would be happy to know we will have a new puppy.
***** I'm so sorry you lost your golden, but I'm sure you are having fun with your flatcoat! Thanks for the comment.
LOVE your video...we are picking up our 3rd flat-coat this May...super excited. Amazing creatures and you captured their true spirit and beauty. Artemis is one lucky flat-coat!
Thanks so much! I hope you're having fun with the puppy!
We drove to Idaho to bring back our Flattie, Persie, to Bozeman, MT in October of 2012. This video reminds me so much of that trip, thanks for sharing! He also does "zoomies" just like your Artemis...now I know what to call them!
HI -- thank for posting. Good luck!!
she is awesome like my flat, amazing dogs ! I enjoyed this video a lot
it's a awsome breed, our Flat is now 11 years old, but even when some days the age is hard - on other days he's so full of live and wants to play more than other younger dogs :-)
Stunning, simply stunning.
Love this film hopefully i will buy a Flattie in may. Just the alergic reactions are good. Then i will
She loves him to pieces!!!!
AWESOME ! I love my flat and Artemis is beautiful! ... I want more flats here in México
Thanks for the comment Cristian!
my flat coated retrvied died a few months ago. I usually watch this video when I miss her.
Auroron I'm so sorry you lost your Flattie. They really are the greatest dogs.
Auroron heartbreaking - my flattie will have pups in the next six months - let me know if you would like one. Only to very good homes!
What a lovely girl! I have my first flat also. He is my heart dog. I love my goldens but flatties are special! July 20, Obedience Club of Daytona, 6th leg of RAE

Thanks Sara...they are great dogs!
Whouah !!! Beautiful vidéo !!😀😀
What an awesome video.....great dog and owner, too!
3:15 is how my Molly would greet me whenever I came home. Whether it was a quick trip to the store, or after a days work. The memories that brings back, is choking me up, since her passing in Oct 2019. :'(
So sorry for your loss. Thanks for the comment.
Dear Artemis,
You're terrific. We should be friends.
Love, Simon the flat-coated retriever.
Hi Simon.
My daddy says thanks for watching.
Maybe we can meet some day.
xoxo
Artemis

Sally Woolf Hi Sally - I come on here every once in a while to read the comments...I was like - hey, I know who that is! Thanks for watching and commenting!
What a beautiful video !
Thanks a lot for sharing, I love it. Artemis is so sweet...
+Pierre27180 Thanks so much!
So sweet!!!
Love this video. Wish that I spent more time recording my flatty. Although I can remember the ride home from the shelter as if it was on video. Had no idea what type of dog I had picked up or how old he was. The shelter thought he was a Newfoundland... Regardless, he let me know from the time that we started walking to the car that he sure was glad to be my campanion, and he still tells me, five years later.
Thanks so much for the comment...I agree: dogs really are remarkable creatures!
This is one of the best videos I ever saw! Love it and I love Artemis!!
Thanks for watching and for the comment - much appreciated!! Artemis says 'hello'
Awesome video. She is so beautiful. we just got our flat coat pup Mr Tibbs 10 days ago .
I do not believe that's exactly my dog Miska :) greetings from us (Poland) and our dog
Dariusz R. Hapoń Hi Darius & Miska! Thanks for watching
What an adorable dog! The video was great as well C: We recently got a flatcoat pup, his name is Willem haha. I hope he grows up to be as beautiful and happy as Artemis!
Nice we have also bought a flat just a few days ago, are you going to do some hunting with him or just gonna have him as family dog? :)
He's a family dog that will get training for competitions.. I'm not sure how they're called in english though haha. What's your new pup's name? C:
We named her Wilda, we are also going to do some competitions with her :)
Ah, such a cute name! Give her extra treats and hugs from the Netherlands, haha.
Cyarin Haha the same to you good luck with your new pup! :)
I love Flat Coated Retrievers! I am only 14 but my family has had 4 of them. I only have 1 right now and he just turned 1. A couple days ago my 11 year old flat coat passed away but I cant imagine living without one.
I MISS ALL OF MY LAST FLAT COAT RETRIEVER THEY ARE SO KIND I WANT ANOTHER ONE , TO FILL MY HEART UP AGAIN WITH MY BEST FRIEND THAT WILL BE VERY TRUE LOYAL FOR AS AS LONG AS I CAN WITH MY PUP.
love flat coated retriver

Hello Elena I live in Milano and am keen on getting my second flattie My first girlie aged 6 passed last August 2022 after only a year I had adopted her due to a nasty sarcoma 😰
I don’t get to see flatties in Milano very often. Please say hello with Eva 💟
This is an amazing and beautiful video
Thank you Alejandra - for the comment and for watching!
she is so beautiful! I will also get a flat coated soon. i'm so surprised !!:)
Bro, you killed this
le plus parfait des chiens
Je suis d'accord! Merci pour regarder ma video.
Great Video! I have also a flat coated retriever since 6 years and this dog breed is just the best (beside the golden retriever ;) ) if you want to have a family-dog or someone to train. I hope that you will have a lot of pleasure and love with your artemis!
I will be so happy, when I am going to see my Flat Grace again in few days :)
Thanks for watching and for the post, Stephkoch. Say hi to your Flattie Grace!
She's beautiful, my Wilma is turning six in January, anyway awesome compilation, can't wait to see the next one!
Anders H Thanks so much Anders
Flatties - the best
I agree Samantha! Thanks for watching!
Wie süß! 🙃🙃🙃😃
Очень крутое видео. Спасибо. Душевно.
I love this breed, I am French, only English people have got flats hère.
beautiful! i have a flat as well, he turns 6 soon
Hi Tammy, thanks for watching and posting. I hope Nina is doing okay...from one flatcoat owner to another. Artemis also sends good thoughts to Nina. :-)
Just adopted my flat coat! He's 3 months and the cutest thing! Gets into a lot of trouble though haha
***** They sure do! Have fun with your Flattie!
first week with EVA. our fantastic Flat Coated Retriever.
I cri evertim
You are so fantastically creative and I love this video!! 💙
Artemis is absolute Flat-Coat perfection and is so handsome ☺!
We have adopted 3 flatties; all from Jan 😊. Sadly, Gypsy and Stella, who were from her first litter, and were litter mates, have crossed the Rainbow Bridge🌈... but we have their great-niece, Piper!
My parents actually drove down to visit yesterday to get their "Puppy Fix". I was shocked when one of those cuties didn't end up coming home with them lol! 🙄
hermoso es, tenemos una igual igual, saludos desde argentina
+jose rivero Muchas gracias por mirar y por el comentario !
nice have flat coated retriever too
Que hermosoooooooo
I love the video, I have also a flat coated but is a mix with a golden retriever. He is my father´s guide dog and is one of the most beautiful and intelligence dogs I ever met, his name is Dickens and is 7 years old now but he continuous being like a puppy( so get ready :D ).I don´t know about other countries but here in Spain the flat is not a very usual breed but for people like you, every time is going to be a known breed like other retrievers. They are awesome.
Thanks s01992nia for watching the video and posting. It sounds like Dickens really is a beautiful - and smart! - dog. The flat-coat is not very common here in the US either. Most people think she is a lab, but everyone thinks she's pretty - as all Flatties are!
hi. we have had 7 fcr and some have been large some smaller some with thicker hair than others but they have all had that same love of life, other dogs and especially people, so dont take any notice of that guy who says you have been ripped off, you have not. he is one great looking fcr, enjoy.
+Janet Bell Thanks Janet - I saw his post, and also saw that a couple others told him he was ridiculous, so I just decided that was taken care of and paid the hater no mind :) Thanks for watching and posting!
So adorable! So cute! Awww! How's she now
+Sara Beth Cox Thanks Sara Beth Cox - she's doing great - she just turned 3 last month!
awww!
