Norman

Norman is a fun-loving, affectionate boy with a big personality and plenty of enthusiasm for life. He absolutely loves people and enjoys greeting everyone he meets, often seeking out fuss and affection. Norman is very playful, and he loves his soft toys. He can get a bit carried away during exciting situations, his new adopters will need to help him by rewarding calmer behaviour.

Norman enjoys his walks and likes to sniff and explore. He is very social with other dogs and often wants to greet them, but his play style off lead can become overly boisterous, so he will need careful management around canine interactions.

Norman may initially need support adjusting to a home environment. Any time left alone should be built up gradually, and crate training may help him feel secure and settle more easily. He will most likely need ongoing housetraining, so a secure garden would be highly beneficial both for this and to give him a safe space to enjoy off-lead time. He is a loving and entertaining companion who will thrive with adopters willing to continue his training and provide clear, consistent guidance to help him channel his excitement in positive ways.
