What Kind of Norwich Terrier Content Can I Find on Norwich Tales?

Norwich Tales (norwichtales.com) is a personal, enthusiast-run website about Norwich Terriers, built for people who love the breed whether or not they own one. Its stated purpose is to help you decide if a Norwich Terrier — or any dog — is right for you right now, and it does that through breed information, photos and videos, and first-hand stories of life with the dogs.

Who runs the site

Norwich Tales is written and maintained by Barbara Huffman. According to the site's About page, she has shared her life with Norwich Terriers since 1998, founded the website in 2001, and published a book titled Norwich Tales – Exploring Life With Norwich Terriers in 2012. She describes herself plainly as not a breeder, handler, or dog expert — she writes from the perspective of a long-time owner, and notes she has been interviewed by Dog & Kennel magazine and other terrier-specific publications.

That framing matters when you use the site: it is owner experience and enthusiasm, not professional breeding or veterinary guidance.

What you'll actually find there

Breed information for prospective owners

The site's core stated goal is helping you work out whether a Norwich Terrier suits your life. Bringing a dog home is described as a big commitment not to be taken lightly, so the breed content is oriented toward that decision rather than toward showing or breeding.

Photos and videos

The site explicitly invites visitors to "check out cute photos and fun videos" of the breed. This is the lighter, browse-for-pleasure side of the site.

Life-with-the-dogs stories

A recurring thread is the author's own dogs, named on the site:

The site describes itself as a tribute to the breed "starting with my first two, Nigel and Divot," and frames life with Norwich Terriers as "just a little sweeter." Expect personal narrative and reflection rather than a reference database.

A portfolio and contact channel

The site also functions partly as the author's personal portfolio — she mentions enjoying writing and photography, and there are About, Portfolio, and Contact sections.

How to use it well

• If you're deciding on the breed: read the breed and "is this right for me" material first, then read the personal stories — the day-to-day accounts are where the realistic texture of owning a Norwich Terrier comes through.
• If you already love the breed: the photos, videos, and dog stories are the main draw.
• If you want authoritative breed standards or health guidance: look to kennel club or veterinary sources instead. The author is explicit that she is not an expert, so treat Norwich Tales as one owner's experience, not a clinical or breeding reference.
