historically bred to lure ducks within range of hunters by
playing along the water's edge, capturing the attention of
the birds. Once the ducks were in range, Tollers would
retrieve them from the water. This distinctive technique
requires intelligence, agility, and a playful demeanor.
Today, Tollers can still display these tolling behaviors,
even in non-hunting settings.
