I'm my own unique mixed breed! Take a look at my bio page HERE for more details.

I am about 7" tall from the floor to the top of my front shoulder.

WHY DOES NORBERT'S TONGUE STICK OUT?
I gave some of my teeth to the Tooth Fairy. My tongue doesn't stick out all of the time, but definitely if there are treats around.


WHERE DID NORBERT COME FROM?
Julie adopted me through PetFinder.com. I did not come from a rescue but I was in need of a special type of home due to my tiny size.

HOW DID NORBERT GET SO FAMOUS?
Wait.....I'm famous?? Julie prefers to say I am "well-known" or "recognizable." Everything happened organically. First I became a therapy dog. Then Julie created a Facebook Page as an extension of my volunteer work as a therapy dog so I could spread smiles to even more people. Shortly after, my first picture book was published and received nine prestigious book awards. I now have a series of three books, a plush toy and I'm launching a line of fun greeting cards. All of my work is grounded in my mission to spread smiles, inspire kindness and help others.


WHERE CAN I GET A DOG LIKE NORBERT?
There is only one Norbert! People say I am one-of-a-kind because I am a mixed breed and I was the only dog in my litter. I always suggest folks check their local rescues & shelters when considering bringing a dog into the family.

DOES NORBERT BARK?
I am a man of few words but I bark if someone comes to my house. If you want to know what my Norbark sounds like, take a peek at the video HERE.

WAS NORBERT REALLY DARK BROWN AS A PUPPY?
I sure was. My Mom had no idea that I would change color. 


WHERE CAN I SEE VIDEOS OF NORBERT?
On my You Tube channel: http://www.youtube.com/c/NorbertDog 

WHERE DOES NORBERT LIVE?
I grew up in Boston, MA and now I live in sunny Los Angeles, CA.

DOES NORBERT ACCEPT FAN MAIL?
I love getting letters and artwork from my friends. My mailing address is:

PO Box 661443

DOES NORBERT DO TRICKS?
Indeed! I love doing tricks. You can see some of my favs listed on my BIO page, HERE.

WHERE DOES NORBERT VOLUNTEER?
I volunteered for over a decade with Julie at a variety of places from Boston Children’s Hospital to Children's Hospital Los Angeles to civic organizations and special events. While I am no longer a registered therapy dog, I am always a therapy dog at heart.
