According to reports, James Middleton gifted the family the eight-month-old black puppy, late last year, shortly before the death of their beloved dog Lupo.
A friend told the publication: They were devastated when Lupo passed away, as any dog owner will understand, but got the new puppy before he died.
They explained they hoped the new pup would give Lupo some company, as well as some extra life and energy.
In another sweet detail, James Middleton also breeded Lupo from a previous litter - so the old Cocker Spaniel is the new pup s uncle.
Kate s brother James (pictured) gifted the family one of his latest breeds.
