Norma
Meet Norma! š¾š
Hi. Iām Norma. Yes, that Norma. The 81-pound caramel-colored Labrador snack enthusiast currently accepting applications for my forever human.
First things first: I used to be a breeder girl, so Iām just now discovering this whole ācozy home lifeā situation. And let me tell you⦠I am OBSESSED. Couches? Incredible. Beds? Life-changing. Humans? 10/10, would adopt again.
Iām four years old, house-trained, and generally a very classy lady. I donāt tear things up. I donāt redecorate. I donāt throw wild parties. I simply like to be wherever you are ā preferably touching you. Actually, preferably sitting on you. If you sit on the couch, I will gently melt on top of you like an 81-pound weighted blanket. Youāre welcome.
I LOVE fetch. Toss a tennis ball and watch me transform into an Olympic athlete. Iād really love a fenced yard where I can zoom, chase balls, and patrol for extremely suspicious squirrels.
Now, letās address my āspicyā side. On leash, I can be reactive to other dogs, deer, or exciting things. Iām working on it! I even go to daycare once a week, and guess what? Iām doing very well. Iām learning how to dog. Iāve started playing with other pups and practicing my social skills like the brave, slightly dramatic queen I am. Busy neighborhood strolls arenāt really my jam yet, but Iām trying my best and getting better every day.
Letās also clear up some rumors.
Do I counter surf? Rarely. Only for investigative purposes.
One time my foster made scones. She took ONE for herself and left the rest unattended. I waited. I reflected. I considered my options. I took exactly one scone while she was in the shower. JUST ONE. I left the others. Thatās called restraint.
Another time, a smoothie disappeared from the end table. Very mysterious. Very confusing. My foster thought she drank it. Until I walked by carrying the empty glass. In my defense, it was abandoned. I was simply tidying up.
I also donāt mind baths. I stand politely and wait until Iām told I may exit the spa. See? Sophisticated.
Iām up to date on vaccines, not currently spayed, and fully prepared to dedicate my entire caramel-coated heart to someone who wants a loyal best friend, a devoted fetch partner, and a professional-level snuggler who occasionally conducts pastry inspections.
If youāre looking for love, laughter, and the occasional missing baked good⦠Iām your girl.
Love,
NormaĀ
Norma is currently being fostered in Monticello, IL.
This Lab is currently in a foster home, which is CILRAās standard practice and allows us to learn more about the Lab before they are officially ready for adoption. It gives us time to evaluate the Labās personality, bring them up-to-date on vaccinations, and have them spayed/neutered if needed. If you are interested in this Lab, please keep checking the website for status updates or send an email of interest to cilralabs@yahoo.com.
