Norwich Terrier - Comprehensive Owner's Guide Alice Kane

Always ready to defend his long-standing title of ?The Demon Dog,? the Norwich Terrier is happily oblivious to his status as the smallest member of the Terrier Group. Unchallenged, this foxy-faced earthdog is plucky, cocky and cunning, with all of the childlike innocence to win over dog lovers the world over. As author Alice Kane describes, the breed is ?small but not fragile, assured but not quarrelsome,? the Norwich fits into most lifestyles, offering no small portion of tenacity, humor, intelligence or courage. Whether you desire a sensitive companion dog or a hardy farmhand, the Norwich will delight any owner willing to undertake his training and care. The breed promises a long life of amusement and good health, plus the added bonus of a non-shedding, weather-resistant coat. This new Special Limited Edition covers the breed?s history in England and the US, the breed?s characteristics and standard as well as provides a comprehensive owner?s guide to the selection of a well-bred Norwich Terrier puppy, the care and training of the puppy and the maintenance of the dog throughout his life. All aspects of care are included in this new colorful volume, including house-training, grooming, feeding, home safety and healthcare. The book also presents a special chapter on recognizing and solving behavioral problems and introduces Norwich lovers to the exciting world of competitive pure-bred dog sports.
