My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Norman is a sweet, gentle, and incredible dog. We rescued him from Tri-County Animal Shelter in Boca Raton in April 2021. He originally arrived at the shelter with his brother from Puerto Rico, but they were separated. Norman is a cuddly companion. He loves to snuggle and often sleeps curled up in the crook of my back. He is well-trained, rarely barks, doesn’t have accidents, or damage anything at home. He’s easygoing and friendly. He struggles with being left home alone. He doesn’t act, no destruction, no messes but he anxiously runs between the front door and the window, waiting and watching for his people to return. Because we live above an underground garage he hears that constantly thinking we are returning. Our dog sitter has told us he settles well when he is with the other dogs. We have tried behavioral and medications but we’re not consistent. He would be great with someone who works from home or is retired or additional pets. My partner is moving and I work full time.
