Dancing With The Stars alum Jessie James Decker has adopted a rescue dog after she met on in the middle of an interview with Country Now. This unexpected decision, according to Decker, is one that “felt so right.
Jessie James Decker, Eric Decker Adopt a Puppy on Valentine’s Day
Stopping by the Country Now studio in Nashville, Tennessee, Jessie James Decker met a number of puppies from Proverbs 12:10 Animal Rescue for the outlet’s “Pupdate” series. Apparently, the country musician happened to fall in love with one dog, thus convincing her husband Eric Decker to allow her to adopt one.
In a recent Instagram post, Decker shared a series of snaps pertaining to the dig adoption process. This post included how she persuaded Eric to accept the puppy to their family. A screenshot revealed that the former NFL player was hesitant at first, stating that he doesn’t want to be “attached” to a pet. Yet, by the state of their family now, Eric has obviously given up to her wife’s adorable wish.
The same post also showed Eric’s first meeting with the dog, taken before the couple took it home. They named the dog Hart Olivia Decker.
“Hart completed the heart of our family,” she said. “I feel like she chose us. We weren’t expecting to come home with a puppy that day, but it felt so right.”
Currently, the Decker family is already an eight-member household. Prior to Hart’s entrance, they have two golden retrievers, Jake and Jenny. Jessie and Eric also have three children, Vivianne, 8, Eric II, 7, and Forrest, 4.
She, Billy Currington to Perform Their Single For The First Time
