When does he start doing bite work?

umm, yesterday
i am actually thinking of doing a BH on the little fella, he has great attention, and is a food maniac.
he has a bit of a rough story, he was bred by my very good friends, and was placed (another nightmare of people passing initial evals). ended up being abused and neglected, they took him back and asked me if i would like him,(knowing full well i would!)...so thats how he came to me. he has some lingering side effects still, but at his tender age i am sure he will make a full recovery..(he still cowers a bit when u reach for him too quickly etc). my friends had "farmed" him out to a foster mommy of sorts, one of their good friends, and she has worked alot of one on one with him, and was quite sad to see him go but happy he was going with me..she knows how spoiled my crew is

so far he will bite the kitchen towel and hang on ok..so it is just a matter of honing his prey drive etc..
i just can;t see him making IPO1 tho..the dumb bell is bigger then him....lol

What a CUTIE!!! ;D

That's interesting that you picked the Norwich Terrier....in passing we have thought about a Norwich or Norfolk -- if we wanted a lap dog. (We haven't looked into that...we're still pretty new parents to Elsa...)

Side note: I grew up with a Welsh Terrier. I have seen a huge difference in the breeds...it's been fun...
