Norman in the House

Big, big day here. Carter and Claire flew in from Boston and brought Norman with them. He was such a good boy. They got to the airport early and he visited the Delta club. He was already on a med to make his first flight easy. So the report was he chilled out at the club.

Then the flight was delayed. Thankfully not so long that is medication wore off. I got these photos of Norm on the plane where he was a very good boy. The only thing that freaked him out was the landing gear going down. Well, by then the flight was almost over.

I picked the three of them up and he jumped right in the back seat and greeted me with a big kiss. We drove by the good Chinese restaurant in Cary and got take out and headed home.

Shay was waiting to welcome Norman to her house. Norman had been so nice to Shay at two of his houses in Boston so it was only right that he come to see her in North Carolina.

Norman did a big perimeter search. He found a number of toys and balls and was very happy to discover the dog toy basket in the sunroom. The dogs played a little and Norman enjoyed his new kibble which his Mom’s had delivered here today.

Norman’s favorite thing is all the soft furniture he gets to sit on. Even the tables are soft (ie, the big ottomans). Shay, being an old lady, put herself to bed early, but Norman was still living it up with the big girls in the big room.

Such a joy to have everyone here for thanksgiving. Finally a dog who likes to fetch a ball and bring it back. No shady Shay, but you could learn something.
