Nemo is a darling 7-month-old cuddly puppy that’s a favorite around the agency. He agreed to participate in this interview on the condition that he be named Dog of the Year; so, check out our interview with the #1 W+K Pup 2012.

Nemo’s a friendly dog whose favorite thing is jumping and greeting people, and going on walks. His favorite treat is peanut butter, and he can’t resist chewing slippers and playing with his squeaky ball.
 

His owner Rainier says he’s well-behaved, and at home he’s pretty mellow, but it’s a different story when he’s making friends with humans.

“He gets excited at people, and jumps and runs to them,” Rainier said. “He thinks they’re his BFFs.”
 

And Nemo has lots of BFFs at the agency. “He gets passed around a lot, and goes to a lot of meetings,” Rainier said. “It’s hard to find him, sometimes!”

When he’s not at work, he waits patiently at home on Rainier’s bed.
 

Nemo almost had a different name, his owner said: “I was thinking of Bullet, Simba or Nemo. Once I got him, Nemo fit.”
 

In addition to being named pup of the year, Nemo is also available as a spokesdog.
