The Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, also known as the "Toller," is a medium-sized ball of energy disguised in a handsome red coat. This breed boasts a thick, water-repellent outer coat with a soft undercoat, perfect for their love of swimming and retrieving waterfowl. Their coloring ranges from a light orange to a deep red, often with a touch of white on the face, feet, and the tip of their ever-wagging tail. Built for agility and endurance, Tollers are smaller and more athletic than most retrievers.
