Say hello to Wiley the Dalmatian - the dog with a heart-shaped nose that is breaking the internet.

The pooch and his owner Lexi Smith, 26, met in March last year and it wasn't even the unusual heart marking on his nose that Lexi was drawn to.

She actually had 11 pups to choose from in the litter, eight of which were males, but she chose him because of his traits.

Lexi, from Colarado, USA, told Bored Panda: "I chose him because the breeder told me that all he did was sleep, snuggle, and eat, so we already had a lot in common."

Sounds like our kind of dog!

At that point too, the heart wasn't fully formed, plus Lexi assumed it would change over time as Dalmatian spots tend to do. But if anything it seems to have become more prominent and it is the sweetest thing.

She went onto say he has the best heart too - and she's not talking about the one on his nose.

She said: "He loves everyone he meets and is always so excited to make new friends.

"He has been relatively easy to train and has made the best little adventure partner I could ask for.

"He requires so much attention and he's basically attached to my hip, but that's what I love about him."

And thanks to his sweet personality and his unusual marking, he now has 167,000 followers on Instagram - influencers eat your heart out!


The playful account run by his human, Lexi, shows Wiley having plenty of fun whilst of course flaunting his adorable nose.

He's even got the talent of an artist, so it seems anyway judging by the snap of Wiley next to an impressive landscape painting.

He looks like he has lots of talents otherwise too. From running, to playing in the snow, swimming in the sea, to playing hide and seek and posing for the camera. What a fun-loving doggo!
