The Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever is the smallest of the retriever breeds. They are good with children however they should not be left unsupervised with young children who have not yet learned how to interact correctly with dogs. If you have cats or other small pets expect a great deal of exercise since the Toller will chase them around your yard or house. Developed in Canada to lure curious ducks towards lake shores and river banks with his playful antics (called Tolling), the highly intelligent Toller is an all-around dog.

They are a great hunter, a willing obedience dog, a joyful agility competitor, and make an affectionate and playful pet. Although he is relatively easy to train and willing to please, he can be stubborn and very creative in the ways in which he disobeys. The Nova Scotia Toller is 18-20 inches tall and weighs 35-50 pounds. They also have webbed feet. His water-repellent soft wavy coat is always shades of red or orange, often with white patches on chest, paws, and tip of the tail. Tollers hair is longest on his underside, legs and tail. His coat needs fairly frequent brushing to remain free of tangles. Country of origin: Canada
