They make a delightful companion who loves to hunt, dig and investigate.

Abrigo
They have a hard, wiry and straight coat. The shaggy, medium-length, waterproof coat is relatively easy to care for, but daily combing and brushing is important. This breed is a light shedder.

Because a Norwich has strong hunting instincts and typical terrier curiosity, most breeders require fencing as a prerequisite to owning a Norwich puppy or adult. Excessive heat can present problems for many dogs, so shade and water is vital in hotter weather.
