A Chesapeake Bay Retriever is a powerful, muscular retriever with a slightly wavy, rather short coat that comes in shades of brown, red or tan ranging from a dead-grass-straw color to a deep dark brown with red overtones.

Both the harsh outer coat and dense woolly undercoat are oily for water-repellent. The head is round and broad with a medium stop and muzzle. The lips are thin. The small ears hang down and the eyes are yellowish colored.

The height of male Chesapeake Bay Retriever ranges from 23-26 inches and females from 21-24 inches.

While the weight of a male ranges from 65-80 pounds and female from 55-70 pounds.
