Meet the vibrant Norman, a delightful 5-year-old Border Collie mix who’s ready to bring joy and energy into a loving home! 🎉 This handsome fellow, tipping the scales at 53 pounds, was unfortunately surrendered due to family circumstances. But don't let that sad story fool you—Norman is a bundle of love, just waiting for the right family to embrace him! ❤️ Described as active and playful, he lights up any room with his infectious spirit. His ideal day? Chasing after toy ducks and zooming around the yard! 🦆 Norman has lived indoors, showcasing his fantastic housebroken skills and intelligence, making him a super smart companion. Isn’t that what everyone dreams of in a furry friend? 🧠 However, Norman does have some quirks. Loud noises can put him in a bit of a tizzy, so he prefers a quiet environment where he can truly shine. He's known to dig when he gets nervous, so a gentle hand and some understanding will go a long way with this lovable guy. Although he has a little fear of reactions, especially around special needs children, he does well with women, children, other dogs, and is fair with men, cats, and livestock. Norman is a joy on the leash and enjoys car rides—perfect for those weekend adventures! 🚗 Whether you’re looking to cuddle on the couch or embark on an exciting hike, Norman will be by your side. Just imagine his happy face as you explore the great outdoors together! He’s ready to find his forever home where he can feel safe and loved.
