Looking for a living Teddy Bear? You can't get much closer than with the Norfolk Terrier, and adorable terrier breed that hails from the Emerald Isle. Thought to be a mixture of Irish Terrier, Border Terrier and Cairn Terrier, the Norfolk Terrier has an identical background to that of the Norwich Terrier. Breeders and exhibitors at one time considered the two breeds to be one and the same, however two ear types eventually emerged - drop and prick - with the drop ears being assigned to the Norfolk Terrier and the prick ears to the Norwich. Norfolk Terriers were recognized as a distinct breed in the 1930's. Drop ears give the Norfolk Terrier it's gentle, inquisitive and highly adorable expression. Norfolks are small, active little dogs that measure just 10 inches at the shoulder. The coat is hard and wiry in shades of red, wheaten, black and tan or grizzle, and it is very easy to maintain in both shape and condition. Norfolk Terriers are great companions who will provide their owners with plenty of love and laughs - and they make wonderful watch dogs!
