The site of that 'breeder' has a LOT of red flags indicating they are simply ignorant back yard greeders. They sell to anyone whose credit card passes... no responsible breeder would do that; they have multiple (as in MANY) litters evidenced so they are likely even bordering on a puppy mill; they are not good breeders dear, I am sorry to tell you this - but you and your family should have done better homework before purchasing a pet. Likely for less money you could have gotten a decent quality representative of the breed and not supported a byger/pm but you have her and that is that. She might be a Norwich but she isn't a terribly good representative of the breed -- that is okay, hopefully she will have decent health and temperament and will live long and be a wonderful companion for you and your family. Get her spayed as soon as possible as that will help to prevent mammary and uterine cancers and help her live a longer life. You can start training her to do things and behave as your family wants -- encourage the behaviors you want at this age and it is much easier that waiting until the bad behaviors are habituated. She is a cutie and you are supposed to love and care for her in a responsible manner. Feed her several times a day, the food that she was on and if you want to change her to another food, do it slowly over a week or so to insure she doesn't get an upset stomach - the change in location and water will already be a bit to handle. Take her to your veterinarian and get her checked over - make sure she is up to date on her innoculations and let her get to know how to behave at the vet's. Socialize her well so that she is comfortable around all situations and isn't fearful. Find a local obedience or agility class and see about starting her in one or the other -- she has a lot of energy but will wind down fast so don't push her but let her enjoy and learn while you enjoy and learn. Good luck!!
add: It is spamming because it is advertising that puppy miller site - it is likely inadvertant spamming but it is spamming none the less -- let's hope that those following the link are smart enough to realize that the site is a puppy mill/byger site and hopefully no one else will support through purchase this irresponsible and unethical puppy pumper...
but given the mentality of most in the world, that is highly unlikely...

I thought at first this did not look like the typical Norwich Terrier til I went on a Google Image search for you. There were a good amount of pups tat looked just like yours Look At this pic, it could be your little guy lol www.modernpooch.com/archives/2006/07/index.html Yours is adorable and now, yes I think he is a terrier.

She doesn't exactly look like a Norwich but breed doesn't really mean much in the scheme of things. Just treat her like you would if she was a prize winning Norwich. She doesn't care what she looks like.. She just cares that she's happy and loved by you.

I don't like breeder websites that have a shoppingcart and allow you to buy puppies using Paypal / Mastercard. And 1 year health guarantee?? What is that?? Doesn't have much confidence in the health of the puppies.

she looks almost exactly like a couple of the puppies they have on the site. I also did a google image search and came up with pictures resembling your pup. She's beautiful, love her and care for her. Breed doesn't really matter.
How is this spamming?

Ok so what's the problem? Play with her, love her and give her the best possible life.

She's sooooooo cute!! You shouldn't really care what breed she is-aslong as you love her, it doesn't matter if she's not pedigree or whatever. She's lovely and you should definately keep her.
