Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever

Description:
The Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever who was once known as the Little River Duck Dog is one of the smallest retrievers. He uses the art of tolling which is to frisk and leap about at the mouth of a funnel-like net in order to lure ducks into the trap. Strong and reliable, he never hesitates to jump into icy-cold water. A wonderful companion, a great playmate and a flashy show dog, he is a willing and happy bird dog.
