Norman Update March 2021

Norman was neutered this month and let out into the general population. He stayed away from everyone initially but after a week or so he started mixing with a few of the other dogs.  These old street dogs that we bring in take a long time to be socialised as they are so wary if not fearful of people.

Norman likes Rudylyn, our vet assistant and she can pick him up and stroke him - but for now, he won't let anyone near him.
We just need one person to work with him for a month or two and then he is likely to be much more sociable with people in general.

His neuter went well but then a couple of days after his surgery, he developed an infection in his surgical wound on his testicle and so we had to put him back in quarantine to administer treatment in the form of antibiotics.

His hair is starting to grow back - here is Rudylyn giving him his antibiotic tablet. Hopefully next month he will be more sociable
