The Kooikerhondje, also known as Kooiker, Nederlandse Kooikerhondje, Dutch Spaniel, Dutch Decoy Spaniel, is a small, intelligent, active dog that originated in the Netherlands, where it has always been highly prized for its job of luring ducks into the traps and nets of hunters. Some people believe that these charming dogs are the foundation of the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, and they are sometimes referred to as Kooiker Hounds.
