Good Monday morning. As you might deduce, we’re off to bring some smiles to folks at Lutheran this week. Norman thinks this cartoon pretty much explains what his job is all about (sans the face licking part which is unacceptable behavior). Here’s hoping all your encounters this week bring lots of smiles.

Live, love, bark! 🐾
We are so glad you get to do this work, Norman. Its truly a labor of love for others!
Thanks to your Mom for helping you to do your work as well.
If you are not supposed to give love licks, are you allowed to lick/kiss a hand?
Oh wait, hospitals are not supposed to allow doggy germs….sigh…maybe a wet nose kiss?
Dalton when he feels comfortable will lick my ankles!
Benji will lick/kiss anywhere he can reach, LOL!
Lulu: “You do excellent work, Norman! Our Dada got visited by a pet therapy dog while he was in the hospital, so he knows how much the people there appreciate seeing you!”
So glad your Dada was visited by a pet therapy team. We love bringing a bright moment to patients and nurses alike. I know it can make all the difference in the world for so many while they’re being treated.
Just think of all the smiles you’re going to bring when you make your rounds Norman. Nothing works like puppy love!!!!
Hugs, Teddy
You got that right!
😂🤣
Yep, maybe not the face licking part…
🤣 If it’s any consolation, he’s freshly bathed now for his hospital visits. LOL
Nothing like a visit from handsome Norman to perk you up when you are down.
The doctor is almost ready for his rounds. Just need a bath (oh joy). 🤣
He’ll do his best to turn those frowns upside down into smiles.
I LOVE this! Norman, you are so right! And oh how I miss my five therapists! No matter how you feel, a lick or a paw, or a head nudge makes it all better!
Thanks Dorothy. It absolutely does and is the best therapy!
Does Norman take new clients. 😁
He’s never met a new client he didn’t love. 😉
As Olivia Poochie wuud woof: “Wagnificent” comick Sweet Norman an Elsa!

So glad you enjoyed our Monday smile. Hope you have a great week.
Feline therapy works, too.
We say any kind of critter therapy is good therapy.
I need some canine therapy…
Best remedy ever and you don’t have to get a Doctor’s Rx for it either! Happy Monday.
Best therapy ever!!
Thanks for all you do!!
I think so too but then again, I’m biased. Trust me, Norman does all the work, I just drive. Happy Monday!
Ha, Go Norman! 😀
Thanks-happy Monday. 😁
Norman is right and he’s also handsome. Love this.
Have a fabulous day and week. Scritches to the pups, a smooch to Norman and a big hug to mom. ♥
Thanks, Sandee. Happy Monday.
Love you Norman! 😊😊😊😊😊
Aww, thanks! I know Norman would love all over you given the chance. Have a great week, Paulette.
I’ll take a double session including the licks from Norman any day. Have a good week spreading good vibes and healings.
Thanks, Michael. Double doses these days seem like a ‘pawfect’ way to start any week. Hope your’s is ‘wagnificent.’
The best kind of therapy! Happy Monday, may friend! 🙂
It sure is! And right back atcha on the Monday wishes. 😉
🥰
Hope Norman brings lots of smiles this week!
I’m sure he will. Obviously your comment came through but required approval. I may need to schedule a chat with our friends at WP and see if they can bring more happiness to blogging. Happy Monday.
Love the pet therapy until you feel better about yourself!
Have a great visit! We’ll be at the hospital tomorrow.
Us too. 😉 Actually, pet therapy is good anytime, even if you feel good about yourself.
