Olivia Dunne is officially a dog mom! The LSU gymnast has been sharing the most adorable photos of her new furry friend all over her Instagram story, and the pup just made her TikTok debut.

She held the beautiful golden puppy with both hands and lightly banged her paws on an upside-down metal bowl like a drum. The 2023 SI Swimsuit model, who was photographed by Ben Watts in Puerto Rico, moved the dog’s paws along to the beat of a trending TikTok audio and smiled bright like a proud mom.

The New Jersey native’s blonde locks were loosely curled and half pinned back and she rocked a bare face. She ended the video by smothering the cute puppy in several kisses.

“She’s a star⭐️ #foryou #puppy,” the 20-year-old, who is dating MLB player Paul Skenes, captioned the video she shared with her 7.8 million TikTok followers on Sept. 25.

“This is beyond adorable! 😍,” a fan commented,

“Livvy I’ll be the best dog sitter 🙏,” someone added.

“Worlds luckiest dog,” another chimed.

“So when can we take our dogs for a walk together 😂,” one person asked.

“Y’all are both pretty,” someone else stated.

“Ur dog goes perfect with the lsu vibe,” another fan noted

“Omg! You’re dog is so cute! I love dogs! They’re so adorable. What’s your dog’s name? 🥰,” one TikTok user wrote.

Dunne, who is the highest-paid female college athlete in the country, just began her senior year at LSU and will soon embark on her final NCAA competition season as a Tiger.
