NTCA Rescue & Rehoming Committee
The NTCA Rescue and Rehoming Committee coordinates the Club’s efforts to rescue and rehome purebred Norwich Terriers in need from public animal shelters, commercial breeding kennels, and import brokers. Assistance also can be provided to family members and friends of owners in situations where the owner can no longer care for their Norwich Terrier(s) due to illness, incapacitation, or death.
NTCA member-breeders are dedicated to taking back any Norwich Terrier they breed, and for that reason, it’s not often that we have a Norwich in need of rescue or rehoming. If you are interested in acquiring a puppy or adult Norwich Terrier, contacting a NTCA member-breeder is a good initial step.
While infrequent, when a rescue Norwich becomes available, like many other rescue dogs, it often comes with challenges, whether emotional or physical, and has special needs. Norwich Terriers in need of rehoming may be older and/or have health conditions requiring special diets or ongoing medications; new owners must also anticipate veterinary bills that may be incurred for continued healthcare.
Rescue Norwich Terriers are special dogs for special owners. The goal is to place Norwich Terriers into forever homes that will provide happy and healthy environments. If you would like to be considered should a rescue become available, please complete the form below.
If you have a Norwich Terrier in need of a new home, please contact the breeder if known. If the breeder is unknown, please contact our Rescue Chair.
