Retriever
From Academic Kids
A retriever is a family of gundogs that retrieve game for a hunter. These dogs were originally bred to retrieve birds or other prey and return them to the hunter without damage. As a result, retrieving breeds have extremely gentle mouths and a great willingness to please, learn, and obey. These traits have made retrievers such as the Labrador Retriever and Golden Retriever popular as Assistance dogs.
