Meet Norman
Meet Norman! With his soulful eyes, velvety-soft fur, and irresistible Basset charm, Norman is impossible not to love. This spunky 7-year-old Basset Hound is proof that age is just a number—he's fit, enjoys long walks, walks beautifully on a leash, is completely housebroken, and never turns down a tasty treat! Norman is a sweet, sensitive boy looking for a calm, patient family. Loud noises, sudden movements, and unfamiliar objects can startle him, so he'll thrive in a quiet home where he can continue building his confidence. Once he feels safe, he's a loyal companion who loves to snuggle and soak up affection. In his foster home, Norman lives happily with three other Basset Hounds and two Persian cats. His Basset buddies have helped him rediscover his playful side, and he loves racing around the house with them. Watching him rediscover the joy of simply being a dog has been one of the greatest rewards of fostering him. He would do best with calm, playful dogs his own size, but isn't a fan of large dogs or overly dominant personalities. If you're looking for a gentle, devoted companion with just the right amount of Basset goofiness, Norman is ready to fill your home with love, laughter, and plenty of cuddles. Could you be the forever family this sweet boy hasp been waiting for? Norman is being fostered in the Cincinnati area and his fee is $300. Home with a fenced in yard is preferred, however others will be considered as long as he is kept active! Please fill out the online application at ohiobassetrescue.com If you are interested!
