Norman has some anxiety issues due to PTSD. Daily medication along with a few behavioral modification techniques have been used to successfully manage his condition.
Norman is a bit of a snob and only enjoys the company of other Frenchies and smaller dogs with no noses, who are laidback and confident. Norman is obedience trained and walks beautifully on a leash. Daily walks are recommended to provide a physical outlet for his anxieties. Norman has come along way since joining Lucky Bulldogs Rescue, however he still has a few anxieties when it comes to strangers, the front door, car rides, and large dogs with noses. Norman will need a human who is willing to take the time in these instances, to initiate the techniques his foster family uses to help him calm down and move forward. He would also prefer a human who is home with him the majority of the time.
Norman is potty trained can be left out in the home when his family leaves. We do not recommend ever putting Norman in a kennel; he is likely to injure himself due to his anxieties. Overall, Norman is pretty laid back. He is loving and likes to snuggle at bedtime. He is funny and will let you know when he wants to play. Norman is a professional stalker and will follow you around all day long. He is easy to maintain and groom and has no issues with baths, brushes or getting his nails done. Norman is a healthy, happy, loving boy who is looking forward to meeting his forever family.

While in foster care, all our dogs are thoroughly vetted. Any discovered medical issues will be disclosed above. Our Lucky Bulldogs (and their smushie-faced buddies) are cleared by their vet for adoption prior to us accepting applications. All our dogs will be up to date on Rabies & DHPP vaccinations, up to date on Heartworm preventative after a negative Heartworm test, and spayed or neutered prior to being adopted out to their forever homes. Often times, our dogs are given dentals and sometimes nare-widening surgery if needed while under anesthesia. All surgical and medical history we have will be shared with adopters. Further details can be discussed with the foster volunteer during the phone interview for the applications that are chosen to proceed to the phone interview part of the adoption process.
All our dogs are crate trained unless otherwise noted on their "All About" pages.

We will accept applications for our available dogs for 1-2 weeks except in cases of overwhelming popularity where we may stop accepting new applicants sooner. Once we have stopped accepting applications, we will review them and proceed with a phone call with our top two applications to chat about the dog being applied for, go over the adoption process, and answer any questions the potential adopter has. After phone calls take place, we will decide on our top applicant choice and proceed to contact them to schedule a home visit (in person or via video chat), and check vet and personal references before the adoption is ready to be completed. This process can take up to 6 weeks.
