Description
Norman, or as he’s known in the kennels, “Storming Norman”, is a big, handsome lad looking for a home where he can join his owner on all of life’s adventures. A lovely mix of Staffie and Labrador, he combines the very best qualities of both breeds. He’s a proper ladies’ man in the kennels and has charmed all of our staff and volunteers.
Norman almost didn’t make it to us. His previous owner was struggling with his mental health and had taken him to the vets to be put to sleep because he could no longer cope. We received a frantic call from the vet clinic, pleading with us to take him. Thankfully, we were able to arrange transport and get him safely on his way to us. His original name was Storm, but we didn’t feel it suited his friendly, goofy nature, so we renamed him Norman.
Despite being less than a year old, he’s already a big boy, weighing 27kg. He’s thriving on a raw diet, loving his meals, embracing his training, and settling well into kennel life. With the recent warm weather, we’ve also been trying to introduce Norman to the concept of a paddling pool, with only limited success!
This boy has so much potential. His new owner will need to be committed to continuing the training we’ve started, but we truly believe Norman will make an outstanding companion. He can be boisterous, so any children in the home should be over 14 years old or experienced around large dogs. He gets on well with all the dogs he has met in kennels and seems particularly comfortable around larger dogs. As he has not previously shared indoor living space with other dogs, he would need to meet any potential canine housemates before adoption.
Norman is a fantastic dog who is making the most of his fresh start in life, and he’s more than ready to find a family of his own.
