Canine Chronicle Virtual Dog Show – You Be The Judge!
It is time to put your thinking caps on! For today’s Virtual Dog Show, we are asking our readers to be the judge and place the following Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever Dogs First, Second and Third AND to tell us why.
The complete AKC Official Standard for the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever is available online here. As quoted from the AKC Standard, the general appearance of the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever is as follows:
The Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever (Toller) was developed in the early 19th century to toll, lure, and retrieve waterfowl. The playful action of the Toller retrieving a stick or ball along the shoreline arouses the curiosity of the ducks offshore. They are lured within gunshot range, and the dog is sent out to retrieve the dead or wounded birds. This medium sized, powerful, compact, balanced dog is the smallest of the ret rievers. The Toller’s attitude and bearing suggest strength with a high degree of agility. He is alert, determined, and quick, with a keen desire to work and please.
