Animal

The Resume

    (May 17, 1988-June 26, 2001)
    Born in Connecticut
    Jack Russel terrier
    Portrayed the title role in 'Wishbone' (1995-98)

Why he might be annoying:

    He did commercials for Nike. (And, more logically, for Mighty Dog and Chuck Wagon.)
    His trainer called him a 'toyaholic' and noted that he had favorites among the 'Wishbone' cast and crew based on who gave him toys.
    It is easy to confuse him with fellow Jack Russel terrier Moose (Eddie on Frasier).
    Although he starred in a show that promoted reading, he was illiterate.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He beat out a hundred other dogs for the role of Wishbone.
    The Los Angeles Times called him 'the most versatile canine actor on the screen today.'
    He learned to ride a horse for 'Wishbone's Dog Days of the West.'
    Trainer Jackie Kaptan said, 'He loves being in front of the camera. I can teach animals to go through the motions, but I can't teach animals to enjoy it.'
