Is it free to advertise here?

Yes. A breeder profile and your litter and stud dog adverts are free. Premium profiles, featured placement and sponsored articles are optional paid extras; see pricing.

Do I need a licence to advertise puppies?

In England you need a dog breeding licence from your council if you breed three or more litters in 12 months or breed and sell dogs as a business, and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own schemes. Licensed breeders show their licence number and issuing council on every advert. Puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they go to new homes.

Is my listing already here?

We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.

Buying a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever puppy

Searching for Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever puppies for sale? The UK breed club says demand for Toller puppies currently far exceeds supply, so plan for a wait and make contact early. Each listing on this page is supplied by the breeder and shows their kennel name, website, social media, location and categories, which makes it easier to draw up a shortlist. When you get in touch, ask for both parents' DM and prcd-PRA DNA results plus any eye, hip and elbow certificates, and ask whether autoimmune conditions have appeared in the family. In England, anyone who breeds three or more litters in 12 months and sells any of the puppies needs a council licence and must show the licence number in adverts. We are an independent directory, not an inspection body; read how we verify listings and make your own checks.

Health tests to ask about

The RKC places the Toller in Breed Watch Category 1, so no breed-specific points of concern have been flagged for show judges beyond those the breed standard already covers.

Under the RKC health standard, the Good Practice tests are the minimum a breeder should complete before breeding, and Best Practice means completing both lists below. For this breed the Good Practice list also includes prioritising genetic diversity, which the RKC's inbreeding coefficient calculator can help with. Results for registered dogs are published on the Health Test Results Finder.

The UK breed club's health page describes further conditions seen in Tollers. Autoimmune diseases, among them steroid responsive meningitis arteritis (SRMA) and immune mediated polyarthritis (IMPA), have no DNA test. Hypothyroidism has none either, and the only test linked to Addison's disease covers the juvenile form, so a clear JADD result does not rule the adult condition out. The club advises against breeding from affected dogs, and it reports that mast cell tumours are diagnosed more often in Tollers than in dogs generally. No test result can guarantee a healthy puppy, so ask breeders what they know about these conditions in their lines.

- Prioritising genetic diversity
- DNA test for Degenerative myelopathy (DM)
- DNA test for Progressive retinal atrophy (prcd-PRA)

Best Practice (in addition)
