Grooming requirements
    This dog has a coarse coat, and if maintained weekly, the coat will not become matted. Most find it easier to have these dogs professionally groomed every 6-8 weeks, rather than giving them the haircut they require at home.

Health considerations
    This breed is prone to Von Willebrand's disease and eye problems.

Breed characteristics and personality
    This little dog makes a good companion and a fine watchdog. It is feisty and active but can live well in an apartment.

Uses
    The Norwich, like the Norfolk, was a ratter, but today enjoys the spoils of being a companion dog and friend.
