Adopting a Norfolk Terrier

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

You can adopt a Norfolk Terrier at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost of adopting a Norfolk Terrier is typically $50 to $300, which helps cover the expenses of caring for your new canine BFF before adoption. This adoption fee often covers an initial exam, vaccines, microchipping, spay/neuter, and preventatives. 

In contrast, buying a Norfolk Terrier from a breeder can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they can cost $1,500 to $4,000.

The easiest way to adopt a Norfolk Terrier is through a rescue that specializes in Norfolk Terriers, a small-breed dog rescue, or a shelter. A great place to start is with a breed search on Adopt a Pet, which will show you all the available Norfolk Terriers in your search radius.

Charles "Doggy" Lawrence is to thank for introducing the Norfolk Terrier to the world. He crossed Yorkshire Terriers and Irish Terriers and sold the result to Cambridge University students who wanted companions and help with the rats in their dorm rooms.
