Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever fun facts

Fun Facts:

Often mistaken for Golden Retrievers, the Nova Scotia Duck-Tolling Retriever is the smallest of the Retrievers.

This breed’s function was to toll or lure. Hunters would throw something along a shoreline; the dog would retrieve it, attracting ducks or geese to come and observe. The hunter would then flare the ducks into flight, shoot, and the dog would retrieve them.

Like all "retriever" breeds, the Novia Scotia Duck-Tolling Retriever has an extremely gentle mouth so as not to puncture or ruin the duck before giving it over to the hunter.
