I make an occasional breeding in an
attempt to breed a puppy that will
help to improve the breed. I hope to produce a puppy that I can show
and use for breeding stock. I am a member of the Norwich
and Norfolk Club of America and the Pug
Dog Club of America. I look at structure
not only for the breed ring but also in hopes to produce
healthy puppies that can compete in agility and Earthdog without injury.
It is very important to me that my
puppies become wonderful companions,
either in the show ring or as beloved house
pets. Any available puppies are usually sold
at around 12 weeks. By that time they have
all their puppy shots and have begun training.
I make sure each puppy is clicker trained
beginning at 4 weeks. Each pup learns sit,
down, and how to walk on a leash. I expose
my puppies to adults, children and crowds.
Often they visit the local public Primary
School for socialization before they go off
to their new homes. Once they have shots,
I will take the puppies out with me to training
classes and activities.
Additionally, all my pups are trained to
a litter pan of Purina Second Nature litter.
As they grow, you can continue to use a litter
box or have them use the outside. As they
get older pups from my litters will go outside
or use a box.
About Norfolk Terrier
Puppies
Only a few people in the United States breed
Norfolks and the litters are small, ranging from
1-4 puppies. This results in high prices and
waiting lists often may be 6 months. Most of
us breeders work together to insure our puppies
go to the best home. If we don't have a puppy
for you then we will try to help you locate a
puppy from another reputable breeder. Please
be aware of some puppy mills that sell “ Norfolk” puppies
for top prices, are not reputable breeders. These
puppies are actually mixtures of other terriers
and will not grow up looking like a Norfolk.
All of
my pet Pug and Norfolk puppies are sold with
a spay/neuter contract and limited AKC registration.
The limited AKC registration does allow you
to show your dog in AKC performance events
such as agility, rally, obedience and earth
dog. Spayed and neutered dogs are much easier
to train and housebreak. We believe that
only dogs that are show and breeding stock
should remain intact. Once my dogs finish
their show and breeding experience, they
too, are spayed.
I offer lifetime support for your pup.
I want you to be happy with your new member
of the family. Any pup residing in this
area gets free training from me at no extra
charge. If circumstances force an owner
to give up a dog, I will gladly take the
Norfolk and re home it for you.
Occasionally, I have a retired show dog
available for adoption as well.
Breeding Stock
My
Pug and Norfolk puppies have eyes exams
at 8 weeks. I continue eye exams for my breeding
stock. Additionally, my Norfolk’s hips
are x rayed and I get color Doppler heart exams
on my breeding stock.
Weekly Training Classes Available
I have weekly classes available
for local owners. I will take a pug or Norfolk
for a 1-week or two-week “Puppy University ” to
teach or refresh training. Please contact
me for
further details.
