This thesis is concerned with six Retriever dog breeds whereas emphasis is put on
their hunting origin. In the first part, it provides a comprehensive overview of the history
of Retriever breeds genesis, beginnings of their breeding and a brief description of the actual breeding conditions in our country. In the second part of the thesis, the basics
of the inheritability of working abilities not only with hunting dog breeds are explained and
a comparison of various working ability heritability tests, including their results, is provided. The main part of the thesis deals with the actual analysis of the results of club hunting tests targeted at the disciplines typical for the given test type. Within my research I focused
on an analysis of hunting tests of Retrievers while using data obtained from the websites
of Breeders Club of Hunting Retrievers (Klub loveckých slídičů) and Retriever Club CZ.
I primarily studied the effect of the dog breed and year onto the assessment of certain disciplines. By means of the statistical method Anova I came to the conclusion that none
of the monitored parameters, i.e. dog breed and year, have any significant effect
on the assessment. The only statistically significant effect may be observed with the curly coated retriever breed in the discipline of tracking two pieces of furred game where
the average grade of this breed amounts to 1.00, whereas with other breeds it ranges
from 3.68 to 3.90. As far as the effect of the year on the assessment is concerned, only
the year 2008 and 2009 may be considered statically significant in the discipline of standstill at a standpoint where average grades reached 2.75 or more precisely 3.25.
