21-09-24 Norbet has come to us from a home with his friend Corkie after their owners circumstances changed and he was no longer able to look after them. Very sadly Corkie passed away a few weeks after arrival, but Norbet is coping well without him. He is a senior boy and is very sad and overwhelmed to find himself here at the moment and would love nothing more than to be back in a forever home where he can spend his retirement years curled up on a sofa, or even better in his special persons lap! Norbet is a wonderful boy, who is a gentle soul and so very sweet. He loves a fuss and if you stop petting him, he will find your hand and nudge you to carry on! He is good with other dogs but we are told that he can sometimes be dominant. He is quite large for his breed and is qute the chunky monkey, so would benefit from losing a few pounds.
Hewill be looking for a calm and quiet home where he can laze the day away before going for a gentle potter. We are told that he isn't fully house trained and so this is something that any new adopter would need to work on with him.

Norbet has seen our vet today to have some dental work done. Sadly he didn't react well to the anaesthetic and so was unable to have the dental, although we were able to scale his teeth as he was still sleepy. Our vets have advised that Norbet does not have any sedation or general anesthetic in the future unless absolutely vital as he is high risk.

Norbet is a sweet little man who just loves to cuddle. He loves to go out for walks and gets excited when he sees the lead and collar come out. He walks well on the lead and is confident around everything when out and about and travels well in car. He’s quite the confident little guy. He’s had two accidents in first few days in house but since then has been clean. He is extremely fussy with his food. He does like a bit of chicken and ham and hot dog sausages but doesn’t eat much. He is very well behaved and loves nothing more than to be near you and to cuddle up on the sofa. He sleeps all night quietly with no issues.
Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
PLEASE NOTE: We nearly always home dogs who have come from breeders where there is ALREADY A RESIDENT DOG living in the house. They have usually never lived in a house before and are only used to canine company. They usually get their confidence and learn faster with another dog to copy from. This also helps with house training and learning how to walk on a lead. They will make lovely pets but do need a lot of love, time and patience. If the ex breeding dog you are interested in can be an only dog it will say so in its write up. Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
