Do you know this breed that has the longest name in the dog world?  It’s the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, or “Toller” for short!  They are the smallest of the retrievers and they were bred to lure, toll and retrieve waterfowl.  They were originally called the Little River Duck Dog….I think I like “Toller” better!  They have a water repellent coat that is red in color with white markings.  I can always recognize them because usually their nose matches their coat, though it can also be black.  This blog image is from the Bryn Mawr Kennel Club show earlier this month.  This pup’s ears look so soft!
