Sundancer Norfolk History

I first fell in love with this lovely short-legged terrier after meeting and becoming friends with Barbara (Bobbie) Fournier, one of the original breeders of the drop-eared Norwich and later Norfolk. After meeting her family of Norfolk and being won over, I knew I just had to have one. At the time I had been showing and breeding Soft-Coated Wheaten Terriers.

Bobbie was going back East and went looking for a show female for me. I was lucky enough to get one from Gaynor Green (Greenfield’s) and also lucky that Peter Green picked her out. My first Norfolk was Ch. Greenfield’s Kibbles ‘N’ Bits (Tassel), who would be the #1 Norfolk Bitch for 1986 and 1987. In 1992 I was again lucky to get another lovely female from Gaynor , Ch. Greenfield’s Lady in Red (Rosie), who is the foundation behind our present-day Norfolk and our group-placing Ch. Sundancer’s Hidden Treasure (Stash).

In 2002 I became acquainted with Stevie Bernhard, who fell in love with the breed after showing Ch. Sundancer Rodeo Queen. We decided to join in the showing and breeding of the Norfolk Terriers, and in the process I became acquainted with another great breed, the Giant Schnauzer. So Sundancer went from just Norfolk Terriers to include Giant Schnauzers.

We obtained from Beth Sweigart in 2003 a lovely male, Ch. Yarrow Venerie Very Grand, to incorporate into our breeding program, and we are looking forward to future puppies from him.

In the meantime, you might catch Stevie with Stash at a show and then Stash and Nick as our brace.
