John took to Instagram to share pictures of their late pooch and reminisce about life on the road with her.

In January 2020 the pair welcomed another pup into their family after adopting a rescue puppy named Petey.

The two shared some seriously cute photos of their children Luna and Miles helping him settle into his new home. But after Chrissy uploaded a picture on Instagram of Luna cuddling Petey as he slept on the sofa, she admitted in the caption that she had messed up as her puppy was yet to sleep in its crate.

Fans were quick to share their opinions on whether or not Petey should be sleeping in one, with one writing: "They don't need one," while another posted: "I've never crated any of my dogs. And neither have they ever had any accident in the house."
