This delightful Dalmatian named Wiley has garnered an army of fans on Instagram, thanks to his distinctive heart-shaped nose. With over 238,000 followers, Wiley’s unique feature and irresistibly cute demeanor make him an internet sensation. His human mother, Lexi Smith, affectionately describes him as stupid, clumsy, cheeky, hungry, cuddly, curious, wild, crazy, sassy, and happily in love. Despite this playful description, Smith’s love for Wiley is immeasurable.
Wiley is one of 11 puppies from his litter, and Smith, from Oklahoma, USA, chose him on St. Patrick’s Day. Initially sleepy and focused on eating and cuddling, Wiley has transformed into a lively and adventurous companion. Smith is fortunate to live in a spacious area where Wiley can indulge in his favorite hobby—riding in the car. Wiley loves taking the front seat, often dozing off during relaxing drives.
Training Wiley was a challenge due to his Dalmatian stubbornness, but this trait makes him even more special. Despite the challenges, Wiley has become the perfect adventure partner on Smith’s trips, effortlessly making new friends along the way.
Wiley gained fame when Smith created his Instagram account to document his life. His heart-shaped nose, visible since he was small, became a distinctive feature that captivates his followers. People on the street recognize him as “that dog from Instagram.”
Smith’s posts on Instagram showcase the love between her and Wiley, capturing every important event and experience in his life. Wiley’s followers shower him with compliments and admiration for his uniqueness. Smith’s captions and quotes add a touch of humor to Wiley’s antics, providing a daily reminder of the joy of unconditional love and living each day to the fullest.
