Prince William and Princess Kate are introducing a new member of their royal family to the masses.

"Welcome to the family, Otto! 1 today," they captioned an X post featuring a photo of their new pet.

Otto, a brown pup, appears to be a cocker spaniel, just like its furry sibling Orla.

The couple and their three children also had a previous black cocker spaniel named Lupo, who died in November 2020 after nine years with the family.
