About Norman
Meet Norman, part German Shepherd and part expert at keeping his humans company. He moves with a gentle presenceāpolite, affectionate, the kind of dog who chooses to stay close without needing to be underfoot. Norman keeps a respectful distance just in case an ear scratch or belly rub is in the cards, and his idea of play is less about fetch and more about sharing the yard or a good walk. Heās fast, loves a romp outside, and never hurries through a stroll when thereās a blade of grass left un-sniffed. Norman gets along well with other dogs, greeting them calmly when introduced, and heās always soft-spoken and gentle. He doesnāt fuss at bedtime eitherāhe sleeps quietly in his crate but would likely prefer to curl up nearby if allowed. Everything about Norman says he was cherished before, and while his past may be a mystery, his habits are those of a dog whoās known real love: potty trained, polite, and never jumping on the couch even when invited. Heās searching for a kind family willing to adore him as much as heāll adore them. If you want a loyal, easy-going companion who brings calm wherever he goes, Norman is waiting in Derby, NY. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
