Description:


According to www.dogbreedinfo.com , Norfolk Terriers are active, courageous, affectionate, balanced and without any nervousness or quarrelsomeness. They are easy to train, and need consistent rules to follow. These little dogs love everyone and are good with children. He will dig and bark if left outside for long periods of time with nothing to occupy his quick mind. They love toys and balls and are generally good with other pets, but can be difficult to housebreak. Norfolk Terriers should not be let off of their lead unless secure. They are okay joggers for short distances. Do not allow this little dog to develop Small Dog Syndrom , where the dog believes he is pack leader to humans. This can cause many varying degrees of behavior problems including, but not limited to, separation anxiety , jealousy and guarding behaviors .
The Norfolk and Norwich Terriers started out as one breed, but were officially separated in England in 1964. The AKC followed suit in 1979. The Norfolk has dropped ears and the Norwich has prick ears; also Norfolks are angular and the Norwich Terriers are more round. Norwich Terriers adapt more easily to urban life, preferring the company of humans over the other dogs. The breed was officially developed in England as a small ratting dog. Later they were also used to bolt foxes that had gone to ground during a fox hunt - so the horses and hounds could resume the chase. This small terrier could get in and out of a small burrow quite easily. As they were bred to hunt in packs, the Norfolk and Norwich Terriers 
tend to be more sociable than many other terriers. Today the Norfolk Terrier serves primarily as a companion dog, but can still take care of vermin.
The shaggy, medium-length, waterproof coat is relatively easy, but daily combing and brushing is important. Little clipping is required. Take extra care when the dog is shedding. Bathe and dry shampoo only when necessary. This breed is a light shedder.  They have a life expectancy of 12-15 years.
