Where Tails Wag and Paws Rule! 🐶❤️
Welcome to Your Go-To Dog Blog!
Hi there! I’m Norman, the furry-obsessed human behind Life at Her Paw. If you’ve ever spent hours scrolling through dog memes, cried happy tears watching a puppy learn “sit,” or considered your dog your unofficial therapist, you’re in the right place. This blog is a love letter to dogs and the humans who adore them, whether you’re a first-time pup parent or a seasoned dog whisperer.
Why I Started This Blog
Why I Started This Blog
My love affair with dogs began decades ago, when a scrappy terrier named Buster (my childhood best friend) taught me the magic of earning a dog’s trust. Since then, I’ve shared my life with countless pupsBut today, my heart belongs to Lexi, my brilliant (and slightly bossy) Border Collie, who runs our household like a CEO with a tennis ball addiction.
When Lexi surprised us with five rambunctious puppies, I knew one had to stay: Junior Barker, the tiny troublemaker who howled his way into my arms and refused to leave. Raising Lexi’s pups—and keeping her mischievous mini-me—taught me more about patience, adaptability, and the sheer chaos of puppyhood than I ever imagined.
Every dog I’ve loved, from Buster to Barker, has been a masterclass in loyalty, laughter, and living in the moment. They’re why I’m here—to help you navigate the beautiful, messy, and utterly rewarding journey of dog parenthood.
