Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever Information

The Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever packs a lot of strength and muscle into his medium-sized frame. The smallest of the retrievers, this breed weighs up to 50 pounds and grows up to 21 inches in height. As the name implies, they are used to draw water fowl within range of a hunter. As the dog runs along the water’s edge, the fowl will be drawn in out of curiosity. After the bird is shot, the pup will retrieve it for his master.

As a pet, the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever is affectionate, friendly, obedient and smart. He needs to stay active, so make sure he gets regular walks and lots of play time.
