Fastest Flat-Coated Retrievers — Fast CAT Speed Rankings (2026)

Tazrus Ruled Under Mars is the Flat-Coated Retriever to beat this season: 28.02 mph, 100 yards in 7.30 seconds, chasing last year's 28.60 mph best, narrowly ahead of Sweet Bird's Dancing In The Moonlight (0.05 mph). 110 Flat-Coated Retrievers are ranked so far. The 25 mph club has 33 Flat-Coated Retriever members so far. The top 10 are averaging 27.2 mph, and with the season running through 2027, these standings can still shift.
