    Gentleman Norman's name tells you all you need to know. This tiny pooch is a class act. With adorable looks to rival Boo and an attitude that is quickly gaining admirers, Norman is becoming the next big little dog star. To help out his human fans, Gentleman Norman has published "Gentleman Norman: How To Be A Man"—full of helpful tips that have guided him through his glamourous life. He was kind enough to offer us a look at some of his classy advice. It's something every gentleman-in-training should see. 

    If you are as smitten with Gentleman Norman as we are, check out how you can meet him paw-to-paw at the end of this slideshow!
