Default PARRY SOUND 162

Hi All, I picked up this badge today and have found only 1 picture of this badge and only a mention of a collar dog on the forum, Google seems to have nothing much apart from.
Based in Parry Sound, Ontario, the unit began recruiting in late 1915 in that city. After sailing to England in November 1916, the battalion was absorbed into the 3rd and 4th Reserve Battalions on January 4, 1917.
It was a small battalion with only 758 or so members.
So would i be right in thinking that it is one of the harder to find badges of the CEF ?.
Thanks Andy.
