  Description:
Named for a Dutch duck hunting technique he is seldom seen outside the Netherlands where he is kept as a companion dog. He is a medium sized dog much like a small setter or spaniel in appearance especially with his bushy tail which he uses to lure wild ducks so they can be banded. Cheerful and easy to manage he is affectionate with his owners making him a good hunter's companion or a delightful family dog. Some historian mentioned the Kooiker as possibly playing a part in the development of the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.
