Novia Scotia Duck Tollers. Not spelled correctly I think. Very interesting breed that is often confused with a under sized Golden. Strated to get one a few years ago just before I left the east coast. No Chesapeake Bay here to hunt ducks and geese.
They are a very nice size dog to hunt with and display an ability to attract ducks by running up and down the shoreline. Hard to explain but it works well most days. Most Goldens are about 50 - 100 % larger than the standard calls for. I use to have a 45 pound Golden female that was a joy to hunt with and carry in any boat. Now I see 80+ pound females and 100 + pound males that are a real pain to hunt with. Like sending a Clydesdale out to get a bird. Just about as easy to get back into the boat as a horse also.
