Meet RedFowler Tollers

Welcome to RedFowler Tollers, home of CKC registered Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers, and a life built around our love for this incredible breed.

Our journey began in the summer of 2019 when we met our first Toller and instantly knew this was the breed for us. That moment led us to Laredo, our first Toller from Tara Tollers, and the dog that started it all. One Toller quickly turned into a passion for the breed, and RedFowler Tollers was born from that love. Ivy, from TruePatriot Tollers, and Whiskey, also from Tara Tollers, joined our family not long after and helped shape the foundation of our program.

Our dogs are so much more than breeding prospects, they’re well-rounded family members who participate in a wide range of activities with us. From conformation shows and trick dog titles to sprinter events, and training for agility, scent detection, and working certificates, our Tollers are versatile, intelligent, and eager to please. Each fall, they also join us for waterfowl season, where they get hands-on experience with different birds and real-world retrieving.

At the heart of it all, RedFowler Tollers is about raising happy, healthy, and driven Tollers who are a joy to live with. We’re proud to share our love of the breed with fellow dog lovers and are always excited to connect with others who feel the same way.

At RedFowler Tollers, our breeding philosophy is centered on preserving and protecting the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever as it was meant to be: a sound, intelligent, versatile dog with a joyful temperament and the ability to excel both in purpose and in the home.

We believe a Toller should be far more than a beautiful little red dog. They should be thoughtful, capable, and resilient; able to work in the field, compete in performance sports, shine in the conformation ring, and seamlessly transition into life as a devoted family companion. Producing well-balanced dogs that embody both function and companionship is what we strive for.

We're dedicated to:

Temperament: A stable, biddable, and affectionate temperament is non-negotiable. We carefully select dogs known for their friendly, confident, and joyful nature.
Health: We complete all recommended health testing through CKC and OFA, ensuring our breeding decisions are responsible, transparent, and rooted in long-term breed preservation.
Structure: We strive to produce Tollers that meet the breed standard, maintaining correct form, movement, and purpose-driven structure.
Purposeful Exposure: Our dogs are raised with intentional experiences that build confidence, adaptability, and drive, preparing them for success in any environment.

At RedFowler Tollers, our dogs are family first and foremost. They are raised in our home, share our daily lives, and are given the foundation to become confident, capable companions. This commitment ensures every RedFowler Toller is not only well-prepared for the world, but deeply connected to their families.
