Happy Monday morning. As we prepare to make our scheduled hospital visits today and tomorrow, Norman says “Never underestimate the therapeutic value of a wet nose.”

We hope your encounters this week are therapeutic and allow you to feel better.
Live, love, bark! 🐾
A wet nose knows…love.
Boy howdy, do they ever!
It’s called cold therapy and it will warm you up in no time.
We bet that sweet nose brought lots of smiles! ♥
He really did, it was a bit overwhelming for both of us, but oh-so rewarding. ‘Somebody’ slept well last night. 😉
Awww, that nose could make me feel better any day! I know your visits will be very welcome!
Thanks, Dorothy. His visit was more than welcome. We were pretty much mobbed yesterday. But he handled it well. He’s still recovering today. LOL
Norman is so smart! Therapeutic value for sure, and what a photo! 🙂
I’ll take it!!
Very happy to digitally deliver it 🥰
I am positive that everyone who sees Norman enjoys that adorable wet nose. Especially those stuck in a hospital for whatever reason – a wet nose is LOVE and that is a real gift!
Hugs, Pam
It definitely is a real gift and one that was well received. Norman brought a lot of joy to several student nurses (among others).
Lulu: “That wet nose will wake everybody up for sure! 😁”
His nose, gigantic head, and humongous paws…all subjects of many conversation yesterday. Norman was a star through it all.
We are sure you will give much comfort and joy to your ‘clients’!
He was a star today. We’ll be back tomorrow after a good night’s sleep.
There were more than a few happy faces yesterday and I’m hoping the same holds true today. 😊
Kiss, kiss.
Mwah!
Way to go, Norman!!!! With that sweet face, I’m sure you’ll make a lot of people feel better!!
He truly did brighten a whole lot of people’s Monday today. Especially a group of student nurses. They couldn’t get enough of him.
You are one handsome boy, Norman. Kisses on that big black schnozz♥
Thanks, Molly. That big old schnoz worked hard this morning and made a lot of folks smile.

I would love some smooches with that wet nose. You’re so handsome.
I linked this post to Awww Mondays because that’s what I said when I saw you.
Have a woof woof day, Norman. Scritches all around a smooch to you and a big hug to mom. ♥
{blush} Sending loads of digital sheepie smooches your way. Happy Monday, Sandee.
such a wonderful phrase… how can I help
It’s the one most frequent thought of therapy pets when they work hard bringing joy to folks.
How can anyone resist a lovely wet nose like this? And I am not surprised at all that he is a fabulous helper!
He’s definitely a love bug around people. And his bum wiggle looks like a hula dancer. LOL
Awww… I love the image!!
Have a great time at the hospital, Norman. You’re doing good work!
Thank you. We got in some practice visits on our morning walk-I think this guy knows what he’s doing. There were smiles all around. Happy Monday, Debra.
Norman would cheer anyone up.
Well they certainly won’t miss seeing that huge nose. Happy Monday, Helen.
Never in a million sniffs! Have a good set of visits and I know you will be making many people smaller and happy!
Thanks, Mike. We already had some visits within the neighborhood (a little girl and her family who all seemed to enjoy his big schnoz. 🤣
LOL, that’s right! Chia loves to give surprise licky kisses on the mouth. I don’t want to tell her to stop, cause I know it’s her way of saying I love you and maybe even I’m submissive to you (although with Chia, that’s hard to know). In the meantime, I scrub my lips with my sleeve and say bleh!
Wait…you’re not into dog germs? 💋 LOL Happy Monday, Xena, Lucy and Chia.
Blech!
🤣
<3!
Happy Monday!
Thanks! enjoy your week!
We are sure you will bring joy to the people in the hospital. Lee and Phod (hour 41 with no power)
Yikes! So sorry. I hope it gets restored; in the meantime you guys will need to be your mum’s therapy.
great advice… it can be the best therapy tool :O)
We sure think so. Happy Monday.
Love me a wet nose!
Me too, especially this wet nose. 😉
