We picked his name before we picked him but we picked the right lil' pup because he certainly lives up to it.
Bounce is a friendly, high energy, hypoallergenic dog. His big brown eyes and sweet face let him get away with almost anything. Some might say he's spoiled, though I'm sure he'd disagree! His biggest fault hands down is being too friendly. He loves loves loves people, dogs and other animals and hasn't figured out how to discern which are suitable to play with and jump on and which ones aren't. And if we're being honest here, we don't try very hard to break him of these habits because we love that part of his personality.
I can't tell you how many times we've been asked if he's a doodle. But we love telling people that he's a wheaten and bragging about the breed. We've nominated ourselves as wheaten terrier spokesmen.
I also can't tell you how many times we are told how much energy he has. Literally everytime we pick him up from doggie daycare we are told that he didn't lay down a single time all day. We like to tell ourselves that this is because he wants to make sure we get our money's worth.
