My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Norby is in search of a home with a securely fenced yard, and would thrive in a home with someone who is home most of the time. He is a toy fox terrier, possibly mixed with some Pomeranian, or another small breed. He is a little guy, weighing just under 9 pounds, and is 4.7 years old. He gets along well with other small dogs. He wouldn’t mind a canine companion, but could also be an “only.” Cats are unknown. A home without young children would be best, as he likes to jump. Norby is house trained, crate trained, no excessive barking, and walks very nicely on a leash. He is learning some basic commands and is treat motivated. He is well behaved when he gets some attention and exercise. He does not put up a fuss at bath time, but using a blow dryer is not an option. He enjoys relaxing inside the fenced yard, or curled up in a cozy bed inside. He is an affectionate Velcro dog and wants to be by your side. However, he can be crated for brief periods during the day, as well as overnight, and is quiet. Norby has a lot of love to give!

If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an  Adoption Application found at caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you.   If you have a question, please email your question to adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.

We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.

*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them.
