Yesterday we shared the origins and history of the Affenpinscher, and today we're going to talk about the Norwich Terrier, who is 58th in IQ.
(Nowitz Terrier of The Ear)
Norwich Terrier originated in the 19th-century English town of Norwich. The Nowitz Terrier was bred to catch mice, preferring to go to the killers alone or in pairs, and this breed has sufficient bone mass and has a coat that can withstand harsh weather. Adaptable, athletic, sociable, good temperament, small but fearless, even somewhat emotional, loyal to the owner, with a cute temperament, no record of love disputes. They are happy, brave, loyal and loving, and can be good partners. Brave and short and strong, with sensitive little ears erect and a slightly cunning expression, it is one of the smallest working stems.

The history of the Nowitz Terrier is closely linked to the famous University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. In the 1870s and 1880s, owning a Nowitz Terrier became fashionable for Cambridge students. The students obtained the Nowitz Terrier as a pet from a stable on nearby Tronmington Street, which they used to catch rats in their dormitories. At that time, the Novitz Terrier was known as the Traminton Terrier. One of them, the Novitz Terrier, named "Rag", was raised by a stable owner in the town of Novitz. The "rag" is bred by several litters of high-quality adult dogs, and it is believed to be the ancestor of the modern Norwiitz Terrier.
In 1923, the Novitz Terrier had great consistency in dog breed standards, and the British Kennel Club (KC) also accepted this breed standard. In 1932, the Novitz Terrier was accepted for cultivar registration at KC. At the time this breed was confirmed to have two permissible ear types (droop ear and standing ear). It was not until 1965 that the Ear-Droopy Nowitz Terrier was recognized as a stand-alone dog breed and renamed the Norfolk Terrier.

The history of the Nowitz Terrier in the United States began in 1914, when Jones, an Englishman named Frank, used the offspring of the "rag" to breed a male puppy named "Willam". Willam was exported to Philadelphia, where it became the patrilineal cornerstone of the variety in the United States.
On October 16, 1954, the World Federation of Livestock Dogs (FCI) recognized the Novitz Terrier as an independent dog breed.
