Adopting a Norwich Terrier

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Norwich Terrier - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

You can adopt a Norwich Terrier at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost to adopt a Norwich Terrier is $50 to $300. Typically, this adoption fee includes an initial exam, heartworm testing and treatment, parasite preventatives, vaccines, microchipping, and spay/neuter. In contrast, buying Norwich Terriers from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they can cost $1,500 to $4,000.

The easiest way to adopt a Norwich Terrier would be through a rescue that specializes in Norwich Terriers and through small-breed rescues. They are a rare breed, especially compared to the more common Yorkshire Terrier. Finding a Norwich Terrier mixed-breed pup may be easier. A great place to start is with a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Norwich Terriers in your area.
