Meet the Chesapeake Bay Retriever, an American original bred to brave cold water and tough conditions along the Chesapeake Bay. This Sporting Group dog comes with a streak of independence, loyalty, and drive. Beyond the field, Chessies have made their mark in sports, search and rescue, therapy work, and other K-9 roles. This year, the breed made headlines with Cota, the 2026 Reserve Best in Show winner, a reminder of what makes this retriever a standout. | Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show
