Norman

Meet Norman, the confidence king with a strut so sassy it deserves its own theme music. He may get a little vocal here and there, but don't worry-he snaps out of it the second you remind him he's being dramatic.

He's potty trained, knows sit and stay, and does well with other dogs. Small kids and brand-new humans? Well… Norman would prefer they approach slowly, maybe with a résumé and a polite introduction. He warms up on Norman Time™, and honestly, we respect his boundaries.

Once he decides you're worthy, though? Good luck getting rid of him. Norman lives for attention, belly rubs, and being glued to his people like a fuzzy little shadow. Once Norman warms up to you, he loves toys and snuggle time on your lap. Here's a sweet video of Norman playing.

He's crate trained, sleeps through the night, and wakes up every morning ready to begin his daily routine of Being Handsome and Going Places.

Norman loves exploring the outdoors and is always down for an adventure… right up until he's ready for his cozy end-of-day flop. Whether he's strutting with confidence or rolling over for dramatic belly rubs, he's equal parts distinguished gentleman and lovable goof.

If you need a loyal buddy with equal parts charm, sass, and wiggle-Norman is your guy.
