Norwich and Norfolk Terriers:
Frequently Asked Questions


Who wrote this web site?

Let me introduce myself.



Are you a breeder? I'd love to buy one of your puppies.

No, I train and show in obedience and agility, and I write books about dogs. For information on finding Norwich and Norfolk Terrier breeders and puppies for sale, and buying Norwich and Norfolk Terrier puppies, visit A Norwich or Norfolk Terrier For You.



I'm bringing home my puppy next week. Which pages should I read first on your web site?

Congratulations on your new baby!



What kind of personality do Norwich and Norfolk Terriers have? The good points and the bad points?

Norwich and Norfolk Terrier Review will give you a terrific introduction to their personality and temperament. What's good about 'em...what's bad about 'em.



If I just want a pet, do I have to bother with AKC registration papers?

First, you must understand what they really mean...and don't mean. Visit Registration Papers and Pedigrees.



There is an adorable Norwich Terrier puppy at the pet shop. The store manager assures me they only buy from good breeders. Could this be true?

Absolutely not. There are no good breeders -- none -- who would ever place one of their puppies in a pet shop. Visit Norwich and Norfolk Terriers in Pet Shops



Do you recommend male puppies or female puppies?

There are advantages and disadvantages to each! Visit Males versus Females.



How can I pick the best puppy from a whole litter?

You can do personality tests with Norwich and Norfolk Terrier puppies, and also physical exams. Visit Choosing Norwich and Norfolk Terrier Puppies.



My Norfolk Terrier barks too much (or chews my belongings, runs away when I call her, etc.). What can I do to stop these behavior problems?

Most behavior problems stem from either miscommunication (you may not have clearly gotten across to him exactly what you expect) or disrespect (he may be deliberately ignoring your wishes). Visit Respect Training Program.



I want to train my Norwich Terrier puppy to really understand what I say.

You'll love the information in this article: Teach Your Dog 100 English Words!



Help! My Norfolk Terrier still isn't housebroken!

Visit Housebreaking Your Norwich or Norfolk Terrier. You will need to go back to the beginning -- into a pen or crate. No more freedom in the house until your new housetraining takes effect.



What is the best dog food I can buy for my Norwich Terrier?

Real food! Visit The Best Food For Your Norwich or Norfolk Terrier.



Which shots does my dog need?

Many vets are not giving their clients the latest information on booster shots. Visit Vaccinations...Needed or Not?



My vet doesn't agree with some of the things you've written about health care.

That's not surprising. There are two veterinary organizations in the United States. They disagree on the most important canine issues such as feeding, vaccinations, and dental care. Your vet no doubt belongs to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA). The health information on my web site comes from vets who belong to the American HOLISTIC Veterinary Medical Association (AHVMA). Visit The Right Vet For Your Norwich Terrier for more information on the crucial differences between these two organizations.



I have a web site about Norfolk Terriers and I'd like to add your link to my site.

Sure! Visit Norwich and Norfolk Terrier Links. And thank you!
