Khloé Kardashian is growing her family with an adorable new furry member. She surprised her two children, daughter True and son Tatum, with a black Labrador puppy named Peppermint on Christmas morning.
The 41-year-old took to Instagram on December 25 to unveil her new pet pooch. The photo captured the black Labrador nestled inside a red box, wearing a matching red bow around its neck and a collar that spelled out its name. “I am going to cry, she’s the best in the world,” Khloé penned alongside the image. She also tagged Big Creek Labradors, a Labrador retriever breeder based in Indiana.
The reality star’s children had been begging their mom for a puppy this Christmas and were undoubtedly thrilled by the surprise. However, Khloé’s choice of breed carries a deeper, more personal meaning.
Khloé previously owned a black Labrador named Gabbana, who died in 2018 at the age of fourteen. At the time, the Good American founder wrote an emotional tribute to what she described as her “first child”.
“Last night my sweet Gabbana passed away. She was more than a pet. She was my first child, my companion and my friend…” she penned. “I never thought I would be this devastated over losing a dog but 14 years is a long time together. She filled a significant role in my life and I’m forever grateful. I love you Goober!! I’ll remember you always!”
It seems Khloé’s kids weren’t the only ones in the family to be surprised with puppies this Christmas. Kim Kardashian gifted all four of her children, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, with their very own Pomeranian puppy. Two of the pooches had dark fur, one had a cream coat, and the last with sable fur.
Alongside a photo of all four dogs together, Kim wrote: “Each kid got a puppy.”
