My 14 year old female Toller past away 6 months ago. She was one of the most beatiful animals that I ever had a relationship with. First few months she chewed everything including two tv remotes, car key remote, baseboards, chair legs, socks and my hands but after those puppy months she was my best friend. I miss her daily. This breed is unbelievable.

They're like a gorgeous cross between a Golden Retriever and a Border Collie. And those puppies! OMG! What beautiful little cuddle puffs. Sooo cute! Want one.

We have one. She is extremely high energy and high anxiety. Needs to constantly be swimming or chasing balls. If you get a Toller, make sure you have a VERY active lifestyle. Our girl isn't super cuddly but she's beautiful and super intelligent.

I just came here to confirm that the dog found wandering about today by someone -- then brought to the rescue agency I volunteer with -- IS in fact, a NS Duck Toller. It definitely is -- I had not heard of them before -- what a gorgeous breed. (Another uncommon dog was found 'playing in traffic' yesterday -- no collar, no tags, etc. -- it is believed to be a "Cane Corso". I was unfamiliar with it also -- another gorgeous dog.) We have breeders of both looking into them -- very odd -- dog trafficking? Anyhow -- enjoy yours -- he is adorable in your photo.

always wanted a golden retriever esque dog as i lost mine a few years ago, but never exactly a golden bc it wouldn't feel right to me. this breed hits the spot- super cute and active, but unique looking and suited for compact spaces as well. i love how theyre smaller and jumpier yet have that easy training quality

kinda want one for college bc i know ill be lonely and i am usually 12-16 hours outside or in semi outdoor spaces and walk everywhere. might be hard to take the dog everywhere though. i want one so bad but have to make sure they wont be cooped up all the time

@@kvalenti53 Aww she’s the best! We named her Willow and she’s a little over 2 years old. Toller puppies nip and chew EVERYTHING in the early puppy stage but they’re the best 😌 We got her from a local breeder, the waiting lists can be pretty long though be warned! Really important to properly look into the breeder you get your pup/s from to make sure they’re responsible and legitimate. Also be warned, you’ll want to get another! 😂

Smart, if you want them as house pets then Tollers are actually better. Having border collie level intelligence would be like having another child.
