NORM NEEDS A NEW HOME! (we are assisting owner)

Age: 3 years old
Weight: 70 lbs
Breed: Mixed breed (see Embark DNA)
Colors: Black with white accents
Neutered, up to date on vaccines, potty trained

Commands known: sit, down, give me five (paw), wait/stay, place, come (although less consistent with outdoor distractions)

Personality: "Eeyore" like generally, snuggly but independent, can be playful, VERY food motivated.

Favorite toys/activities: big red herding ball, tennis balls, kongs, chew toys, swimming, playing chase with other dogs, rough-housing with other dogs
Norm is very trainable, we worked with Dog Wizard and he has lifetime support with them. He is eager to learn and picks up new skills quickly.

Norm is being rehomed because he has shown possessive/protective/resource-guarding around our 13 month old child. He has NOT shown aggression through any lunges or bites towards our child. He has snarled his lip and growled over fallen food and a milk bottle.

Norm would make a great companion to an adult with predictable routine and behaviors. Norm should not be in a home with children. Norm can do well with other dogs, pending introduction. Norm has never met a cat. Norm can walk well on a slip lead attached in a figure 8 head harness.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
