Description:

Meet Norm!

Norm is a Happy Go lucky guy who doesn't realize he is a big, muscular dude! He will play hard, and snuggle very sweetly next to you. He plays well with other dogs, but he doesn't always know when to stop playing. He will play with any-size dog but needs sturdy dogs to rough house with. He still has a lot of puppy in him and needs to have correct "chewing" distraction toys!! He loves bones. He has lived with cats and ferrets and learned to ignore them with patience.

We had one accident when he first arrived, but we haven't any since!!

Norm has started "manners" classes and is doing pretty good. He still needs work on walking nice on his leash, but its coming along!! Luckily he is food motivated and smelly treats help keep his attention on learning. He has sit mastered, down is almost there. Next will be stay and come..it shouldn't be a issue. But he does need someone he can't push around.

At home he plays very well with his other buddy Max, (also a bulldog mix), and they are learning "quite play in the house" and time outs. If you put a treat in his kennel he will jump right in. He has mastered the art of running up and down stairs, and touching his nose to his tail!!

Norm just loves to be loved, bellie rubs and snuggles, or just to be laying by your feet when hes all tuckered out. We have gone to the dog park and he is Mr. Social

He just really needs someone to take the time and train him, poor guy never learned basic doggy manners where eve he came from. He is such a lover though, and will win you over with his big goofy bulldog grin!

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
