Meet the breeder
I'm Donna B., the breeder behind Dtails Tollers located in Old Lyme, CT. I breed well-rounded Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers. The health of my dogs is very important to me, I do health testing on my dogs and provide lots of training and enrichment.
Q. & A. with Donna
Why did you start breeding?
My first recollection of dogs is from around five years old and sharing my sandbox with a litter of Border Collie puppies that my father had bred. He bred Collies and Beagles so dogs were always a part of my life. I have owned many different breeds over the years, from a mini Doxy to a Husky, Shepherds, and Retrievers.What makes your program special?
My dogs are my life, and I ensure they live healthy, happy lives. As a dog trainer, I make sure all of my dogs receive proper training. I also do thorough health testing to ensure I am producing the healthiest dogs possible.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
