The Norwich Terrier does shed, but not as much as other dog breeds. It is a very light shedder. Grooming, bathing, and brushing a dog can make them shed less. These dogs have shaggy, medium length, waterproof coats.
The average lifespan of a Norwich Terrier is between 12 and 14 years.
No dog is really hypoallergenic except the cairn terrier doesn't have any fur, so yes a cairn terrier is "hypoallergenic"
Norwich terriers are only brown (or have a brown stripe down their back) and have thick wire hair. Cairn Terrier fur is light brown and can have a little black--usually around ears and nose/beard (others are all black), and is much softer and not as dense as a norwich terrier.
for hunting small animals
I have both, I think they have the same temperament, even though I find my Norwich male to be the most affectionate dog I have ever owned.
An interested, caring, and responsible family can adopt a Norwich Terrier, a popular breed of dog, from any local humane society or pet rescue center.
