He was 5 years old. He&#8217;s now an 8 year old Kerry Blue Terrier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This curly, silver black fluff ball has personality plus he loves people, and thinks that every visitor is there for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We quickly learned he adores chasing and popping bubbles. He showed an interest in the treadmill, so we taught him how to walk on it. Now, he thinks it&#8217;s his treadmill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He adores walking next to us on the treadmill and jumping on and off. He never met a vacuum cleaner he didn&#8217;t follow! He seems to watch TV and reacts to every single animal he sees. He adapted well to the leash and likes to stay on his daily walk through the neighborhood. He&#8217;s not fond of a change in routine and as a &#8216;weather dog,&#8217; he sincerely hates thunderstorms. He can be a stubborn bugger\u2026 But we love him to pieces.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Julie<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(149\/150)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1054\" height=\"1400\" src=\"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image000002-1054x1400.jpg\" alt=\"Bill Randby with his dog Duffy\" class=\"wp-image-68082\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image000002-1054x1400.jpg 1054w, https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image000002-768x1020.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image000002-1157x1536.jpg 1157w, https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image000002.jpg 1204w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1054px) 100vw, 1054px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>149\/150 | Aug. 5<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":52,"featured_media":68082,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-68903","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-150-stories"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68903","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/52"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=68903"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68903\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":69160,"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68903\/revisions\/69160"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/68082"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=68903"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=68903"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nehumanesociety.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=68903"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
