    How To Find a Dog With a Good Temperament

    Picking a dog can be both perplexing and exciting. The one thing we all want to know is how our new dog's character will reveal itself.

    Finding out why a breed was created, and the country and climate it originally came from, can help you understand what to expect in terms of behaviour and personality.

    Some breeds demand much more attention than others. A breed's true temperament can also require time to develop: the boxer's spirited and extrovert nature means it takes longer to mature than other breeds.

    The puppies of particular breeds could be very hard work in the early weeks but can make amazing adult dogs.

    There are seven types of dogs:
    • Gun dog
    • Toy dog
    • Utility Dog
    • Hound dog
    • Terrier
    • Working dog
    • Pastoral


Norwich Terrier Temperament Personality

Norwich Terrier Information

This spirited dog, one of the smallest of the working terriers, is sturdy and stocky, of square proportion. Its small size is an asset when following vermin or fox down tight passageways. Its teeth are large, to aid in dispatching its quarry. It shows great power in its movement. The tail should be long enough to grasp firmly, so that the dog can be pulled from a hole. The double coat has a hard, wiry and straight outer coat that lies close to the body and is thicker around the mane for protection. The dog bears a slightly foxy expression.

The Norwich terrier, like the Norfolk, is a true terrier at heart, always ready for adventure and excitement. It is a hunter and may chase small animals. It is a pert, independent, amusing — but sometimes challenging — companion, best suited for people with a sense of adventure and humor.
