About Norris 2

Meet Norris, our sweet senior boy with a heart of gold! At about 12 years young, Norris is the epitome of a gentle soul who simply wants to be loved and cherished. Once he feels secure, he melts into your touch, leaning in for belly rubs and butt scratches, his gaze fixed on you as if you're his entire world. His happiest moments are spent by your side, enjoying simple pleasures like walks, naps, and snacks, a big, joyful smile gracing his face. Norris has been patiently waiting, often overlooked due to his age and his struggle with being left alone. He was found abandoned, a past experience that left him with anxiety when separated from his person. But don't let that deter you! Norris isn't asking for the impossible; he just needs a patient and understanding human who believes senior dogs are worth every bit of time, patience, and love. With a little thoughtful planning, Norris can truly thrive. Options like a calm canine companion, a friend or family member to check in, or a trusted doggy daycare can make all the difference. Even better, his foster mom is his biggest cheerleader and is happy to provide ongoing support, including dog sitting and daycare, to help him adjust and feel safe. In return, you'll gain a deeply loyal and devoted companion who will love you unconditionally and remind you daily of the profound beauty of a dog's love. After three long years, Norris is still holding out hope for his perfect person. Could that be you?

Ideal Home

Norris would thrive in a calm, quiet home, ideally with a retired couple or a homebody who can offer him consistent companionship. He does best in an adult-only home and would enjoy the company of a calm dog friend.

Ongoing Health

Norris is a senior dog, and while no specific health conditions are noted beyond his age, senior pets may have age-related health needs.

Training & Support

Norris experiences anxiety when left alone due to past abandonment. He needs support and should not be left by himself for extended periods. His foster is dedicated to helping him succeed and can provide guidance and resources to manage his separation anxiety.
