Peta Murgatroyd and Maks Chmerkovskiy are welcoming a new furry friend to their growing family.
The Dancing With the Stars pros surprised their son Shai with a puppy as the couple prepares for the birth of their second child.
In footage from the reveal, Maks is seen guiding Shai to his room, where the 6-year-old then opens his eyes to meet his newest friend: a curly-haired Moyen poodle named Hachi.
"Meet our newest family member," the couple captioned their April 13 post. "This little guy has brought so much joy into our lives these past 2 days with oodles of kisses and licks and an uber playful temperament….(also lots of poops, pees and cries at night)."
As for Shai's reaction to meeting Hachi? He's "obsessed," the pair said.
"We let him take the lead on naming the puppy," Peta and Maks continued. "We probably bit off more than we can chew with another actual human arriving soon, but hey there is never a perfect time right? Lol."
Their DWTS family left them lots of love in the comments, including sister-in-law Jenna Johnson, who wrote, "I cannot wait to snuggle him!!"
"I am obsessed!" Hannah Brown, who won the show's 28th season, wrote. "Hachi is so so adorable!"
Back in January, Peta announced that she was pregnant for the second time after previously telling her fans about her fertility journey.
"It brings me immense joy to finally announce that @maksimc and I are expecting our Chmerkovskiy #2," she captioned photos of her baby bump. "After 2 years of constant struggle and heartache, 3 miscarriages and a failed embryo transfer…we have a healthy bun in the oven."
