I’m a beautiful Wheaten Terrier, who has been been living with my human mom, Luz, her husband, and their two sons, ages seven and nine, in Deerpark, NY, since the end of 2020. I was born on October 25, 2020 and Central Park Puppies posted a picture of me in December. My human family needed a small, kid friendly dog with a relaxed temperament, which is exactly what I am! But it almost didn’t happen at first, because they were actually searching for Mini Goldendoodles at the time. Luckily, my human mom, Luz saw my picture and description when they were driving back home from visiting family in Rochester, and she called in right away!
I was safely delivered to my new home on December 30. I guess you could say that day was a late holiday gift for all of us. So far, things have been going great! We’re still trying to get on the same page with some of commands and tricks my new human family wants me to learn, but I’m hopeful we can at least work a few of those out. I have already learned my name and also to ring the bell near the door when I need to use the bathroom outside. I really do love my new family though, and the youngest boy is my favorite, because I know that every afternoon at three o’clock, I get to run out to the backyard when he gets home from school, so we play together! Clumsy, silly, playful, stubborn…yup, that’s me. My family also thinks it’s funny that I sleep like a human, on my side, in fetal position, with my paws on my face. I also like to bury my face in the couch and in the snow, while sticking my bum out. I sometimes get in trouble for digging in the yard, and for eating stuff outside that I shouldn’t be eating, and then not listening to mom when she tells me to stop.
For fun, I like to play fetch with frisbees and balls, I like to walk, and I do this funny bunny hop when I run. My favorite treat is a big dog bone that I will often chew on for two or more hours straight. If I could change anything about my life it would be not having to wait for my parents to finish working BEFORE they take me out for walks. I’m 11:00 minutes in...
