Until 1964 the Norfolk & Norwich Terriers were considered one breed, after this they became recognised as two separate breeds, those with the pricked ears being the Norwich Terrier and those with the ears that flop down, known as the Norfolk Terrier.
Norfolk’s are one of the smallest of the working terriers, a natural ratter, they display a great deal of courage. Although an outgoing, energetic terrier, the Norfolk is not quarrelsome, is a sensitive dog, and can become stubborn without an understanding owner.
They are a lovable little dog with a good nature, friendly with people and children, but can try to be dominate around other dogs. They are alert, smart and easy to train.
