My puppy is black and white. He has black spots everywhere! I love my puppy so much. His name is Jeremy.

When we bought Jeremy he was an explosion of joy. He was running everywhere and jumping up and down and up and down.

But when he calmed down he was the cutest thing ever. He just curled up with his brothers and sisters and watched TV. We knew he was the one. We wanted this puppy. We wanted Jeremy.

So we went up to the counter and said "We want a puppy! We want that one" and pointed to Jeremy. He looked up at us and started jumping up and down and up and down again.

We called him Jeremy because it sounds like jumpy. That's how we ended up with Jeremy. I really love Jeremy. We're going to be best friends forever!
