ANDY MURRAY was all smiles as he welcomed the latest addition to his family with a heartwarming post on social media.
The Scottish tennis icon was delighted to reveal he and his wife Kim had adopted another puppy – eight months on from losing their beloved dog Rusty.
The Murray family were heart-broken when he revealed the devastating news on social media in November last year.
Murray previously described Rusty as his beloved and loyal companion along with his other Border Terrier, Maggie May, who sadly passed away two years earlier in 2022.
Writing on social media at the time, grieving Murray posted: “You were the most loyal and protective companion our family could have wished for.
“You were so patient and gentle with the kids and we all learned so much from you.
“The house feels empty without you in it.
“The noise you made when you wanted a plate to lick, or a biscuit to chew on, or when you wanted anything for that matter, was infuriating at times!
“But today we would do anything to hear it again. Love you Ruzz, rest easy poppet x.”
Fans flooded his Instagram page with messages of support following the tragic news as they expressed their sympathy for him and his family.
But this morning, Murray thankfully had some wonderful news to share with his followers as he uploaded pictures of him alongside his new pup.
He shared two snaps of the young pup – one of him sitting next to the dog and another of the canine relaxing in their family home.
He hasn’t yet revealed the name or breed of his new dog but it appears to be a Flat-Coated Retriever.
He shared the pictures with the caption: “New addition to the family 🐾 🥰”
And his fans were delighted, with one saying: “Finally you have a new four-legged friend, Sir Andy! ❤️”
Another wrote: “So cute, Andy! 🐕❤️ Congratulations! 🥰”
Someone else commented: OH. MY. LORDY! So incredibly cute! 😍🐶”
A fourth joked: “Looks just like dad”
