Elsa Pataky is ready to overwhelm you with cuteness. Earlier today, she shared an important update on social media, sharing the news of a new addition to her family.
Pataky shared various photos on her Instagram, showing the world the latest addition to her family: a gorgeous German Shepherd. While she didn't reveal the name of the dog, she shared various photos of it, showing some of what it's been up to ever since they picked it up.
Photos show the dog cuddling with Pataky and her daughter India, with one photo showing the dog and India sharing the same bed. Another image shows Pataky and the dog adorably looking at the camera.
"Our new member of the family, a beautiful German Shepherd," wrote Pataky in the post's caption. "We are completely in love!"
Pataky's home is filled with adorable pets
Pataky, her husband Chris Hemsworth, and their kids India, Tristan, and Sasha are all animal lovers. The family often shares images and videos of their animals, including their horses, which Pataky and India pursue as a sport, their birds, iguanas, and more.
In a recent Instagram story, Pataky shared a look at her mornings. The video showed off two adorable parrots ganging up on her brown Dachshund. As Pataky recorded the action, she couldn't help but giggle as her dog jumped back every time the birds approached it.
In the background, you can hear other dogs barking and animals making sounds, showing that the family lives in touch with nature. Over the years, the family has adopted all manner of pets, including reptiles, pigs, rabbits, chickens, and more.
Pataky and Hemsworth have raised their kids in Australia, with both of them loving the fact they're so immersed in nature. "I grew up in such a different environment than my kids are experiencing, but I was always passionate about wildlife, and nature in general," said Pataky to the website Beauticate.
"Since I was little, my thing was to be totally surrounded by animals, like a crazy person. I loved horses, and I always wanted to have a farm with animals. I do have my own horses now, and it’s just amazing. I’m trying to give my kids the gift of enjoying life outside."
