They originate from Little River Harbour, Nova Scotia, which is about 30 minutes away from me.  We call them Little Rivers or Duck Dogs around here

So, it would more of a regional thing than or no?


It says in the Wiki article I posted:

Other namesYarmouth Toller
Tolling Retriever
Little Red Duck Dog
Little River Duck Dog
NicknamesToller, Scotty, Novie

So it's just another name for them.  They are Nova Scotia Duck Dogs aka Little River Duck Dogs.  
I saw that, but I am guessing the people that would call them that, are people from the area that dogs is original from. So, other words a regional thing.
