Hi, we have just bought a
Norfolk Terrier, yesterday, she is 8 weeks
old, and we called her Mia. Have been
looking around your site, and am pleased to
have found a club devoted to the breed of our
new little family member. She is the
loveliest little thing. Best wishes

166 Two of
the four puppies by Bricken Smart Disguise x CH
Glenelg Alden, BOW Montgomery 2006. Since the
1970's, never have I raised puppies in such
extreme winter weather! But I have more time
to visit your excellent and informative
website. Deborah Pritchard, Glenelg
Norfolk Terriers Middleburg, VA 20118 (15-02-2010).
165 Dear, I think
your site is superb, really amusing and
informational - the page on coat stripping is
wonderful. We will have to remortgage so as
to be able to afford the whole range of tools,
though. I never knew until today that the
breed only got registered in 1964. By
the way, are you aware that there is a legend
that traces the pre-history of the breed back
to the south of our county, Wicklow?
We have been lucky to have had at least one (up
to three) Norfolks in the family for all our
32 years of marriage (we got our first as a
wedding present - can you imagine!) I know I
still get the same thrill when I see one now
- they are just so perfect in
colour, shape, size - as I did when I first
spotted one. All of ours have been real
family-binding guys, the first question our
grown-up children always ask on the phone is
"How is he?" Of course it's
their personality that sets them apart. All
ours have had anarchistic traits and press
hard for their rights. They are also a
bit eccentric, for example they tend to nest
in the tiniest of spaces.
Norfolk owners are rare enough in Ireland, so
of course when we meet one it leads to real
bonding Best regards and thanks for
all the hard work in setting up the site.

164 My Norfolk had a show
name of Frefly from Tennterra Kennels in
Knoxville, TN. She is 6.5 years old and
I adore her. She is smart, sassy, the
queen-bee of the household. Her beautiful
face and adoring looks steals everyone’s
heart. Betty. (07-02-2010)

163 It's a Snow Day.
As still fairly new to the breed am still
discovering the amazing fun a little Norfolk
brings to everyone. I am very sure I am not
alone in having a little chap who thought the
snow was the best thing ever. He played in it,
caused a riot with the children and didnt
want to come in at the end of the day. I am
glad Monty, who is 12 Months old, does not
realise that he may never see snow like it
again for a long time ! Dee Rayner,

161 This is Porter our 9 year old
Norfolk. He is just adorable and we love him
so much. As you can see he is a little
on the plump side, he loves his food and is
somewhat lazey. Not a good combination!
Best wishes to you all. Sally from Suffolk. (03-02-2009)
159 Merry Christmas and happy
holidays!
I have had a very good time with my Norfolks,
Sala & Fuki and my friends’ Norfolks
over the year. Sala and Fuki had a little
piece of turkey as a Christmas dinner.
I joined many Norfolk Terriers’ meetings
in Japan this year. All Norfolks make me so
happy all the time.

158 Hello we would like to spread
the word about a new Europe/UK Norfolk and
Norwich Forum on www.norwichterriers.yuku.com.

P.S. We had a lovely day at the Fun Day -
thank you to the organisers!
157 I am
using this medium to record the sad demise of
my beloved Pumpkin, Cracknor Cutabove. No
great show dog, although he did earn a few
firsts in his day, he was one of the best
ambassadors the breed could have had. He was
loved by everyone where ever he went and his
loss left the children of our village in
mourning. It was because of him that I became
committed to the Norfolk Club giving
everything I could to this lovely breed for
more than ten years.

156 Happy Halloween from Japan!
I have two Norfolk Terriers,
Mother, Sala and her daughter, Fuki.
Sala & Fuki got the first prize of the
Norfolk Terrier
Festival costume contest in Japan, last year.
Sala & Fuki are going for a Halloween
walk
with some friends in the neighbourhood.
Have a happy Halloween day to all Norfolks
and
their owners! Yoko Ohbora (31-10-2008)

155 A Tip
for Norfolk owners. I once helped a
friend look for her Norfolk Terrier all day
as she thought she had got out without
being noticed and couldn't be found anywhere
indoors or out. Later that day someone heard
a whimpering and following the sound she
was eventually found inside the armchair ! -
it was a recliner and the foot rest had
been left up and the norfolk had gone
under and inside and someone came along later
and closed it and that was where she had been
stuck for hours! Rita Mitchell

154 A note of thanks to Rita
Mitchell and Margaret Ruffles for organising
a fantastic Trimming day in Romsey. Many
thanks to Martin Phillips, assisted by Andre
Gullick for the demonstration; what an expert
he is!! And to the many others whose names I
don’t know who helped and guided us
through the afternoon when we were able to
try out our “skills” on our own
long suffering dogs (many thanks to them too
for putting up with us). Despite the dreadful
weather there were a lot of people present
and it really was a most educational and
inspiring day.
Once again many many thanks to all involved.

153 We have admired the Norfolk
terrier for some time and currently show
Douge de Bordeauxs over here in Ireland.
After researching the breed and going
equipped with the invaluable information
obtained from your club website, we decided add
a red male to our successful show team. We
now are proud to welcome Barney into our home
and we have fallen for this loveable breed.
Using the excellent step by step coat care
guide and the shared knowledge from Pat Quinn
at our local puppy class, Barney is
taking shape nicely and will be attending his
first show in November. Congratulations on a
fantastic website and we wish all the members
continued success both in and out of the ring.

Sad news. We are sorry to say that our
Norfolk Terrier Scamp was taken ill in March
2008 and had to be put to sleep. Scamp is
featured on 129, 127. Scamp was 13 ½ he had heart
trouble for some time and took regular
medication. One Friday his breathing
became very erratic causing respiratory
distress he was put in an oxygen cage
for 4 hours but deteriorated very quickly, so
we had to make the hard decision. He
was in my arms when he had the injection and went
very peacefully. He seemed well right up to
the last day so he did not suffer very little.
Scamp was always with us, we work at home and
have two grown up children, he shared in all
our lives and gave us so much. Here is a
picture of him just off for a bike ride
through the country lanes, he loved rides on
the bike and in my canoe (see 127). Now 5
months on my wife and I have are still
trying to come to terms with life without him.
Steve P.S . I am considering (hoping) for
another boy Norfolk to share my life with. (27-08-2008).

151 Hello again. Bruno is now
4 months old, and very happily settling into
his new home. We’ve just had his
registration documents from the Kennel Club,
and his official name is Kinsridge Brown Bear
( how cute! ). Had a few little
accidents with the house-training but
he’s getting the hang of it now ( or
rather, we are! ). He’s such a
sociable, loveable little boy and is fast
proving to be an invaluable and much-adoredaddition
to our family. X.
Regards,
Mandy and family (18-07-2008).

Hi I just found this site, I had a Norfolk
Terrier cross JR for 11 years, I lost her two
years ago and love and miss her so much, her
name was Sox. I would love to hear and know
all about Norfolk Terriers. Thank you,

149 Hello everyone. Just wanted to
introduce our new beautiful Norfolk. His name
is Bruno, and we collect him on Monday 23rd
June and we're so excited! (hope you can see
the photo I've attached). We had
decided to finally allow our children to have
an addition to our family (puppy, not another
baby!) back in January of this year, and
after much research finally found our dream
match in the Norfolk Terriers - a breed I had'nt
previously been familiar with, but with whom
we have now fallen in love! After making
contact with breeder Diane (a lovely woman,
thanks Diane) - we are now happily preparing
for our new arrival immediately on our return
from our trip abroad. So for once, we're
all excited about RETURNING from our holiday
:) Love the web site and am so looking
forward to being part of the Norfolk Terrier
family.
Kind regards, Mandy, Perry and children -

148 Hello! Thought i'd send you a
picture of Buddy who is now 2 years old. He
is our 1st Norfolk and we think he is
fantastic! (see comment 111). Love the web-site,
especially the photos! Regards, R Howard,
Lancashire. (09-03-2008)
147 Well, actually 5 months old now.
Our first terrier. What a pleasure. Will his
coat grow more curly as he grows older?
