Jason and Kylie Kelce's family has grown by one, with one adorable new addition.

The retired NFL star and ESPN Monday Night Countdown analyst revealed the family of five welcomed a new puppy into the mix during the most recent episode of the New Heights podcast he co-hosts with his younger brother, Travis Kelce.

“Have you seen Nessie yet? Our new puppy?” the 36-year-old asked the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, to which Travis joked: “I have been watching that baby wolf, that coyote walking around behind you for the past like five minutes.”

The former Philadelphia Eagles player then signaled for the pooch to come over, formally introducing the family's new Irish Wolfhound to the world. "Come on, Ness. Oh, say hi to everybody."

"Oh, that is a good-looking pup right there," Travis, 34, enthusiastically cheered. "That’s a good-looking pup."

But as anyone who has lived with a puppy knows, they can be like toddlers in the sense that they have "witching hours" where they may get a little too fussy or excited, test boundaries, or let their instincts lead them a little too confidently.

"She’s coming off real sweet right now," Jason said, joking, "She is a terror."

The doting dad of three continued, telling his brother that Nessie "can get up on the sink already" and that he's seen her "pulling dishes out with her teeth."

"She’s the most food-aggressive dog we’ve ever had in our life," he added. "Any door that has like that little, that little hinge [doorknob], she gets up and she hits it, pulls it open. I’m like what...is this dog?"

Both Jason and his wife of six years are pretty experienced when it comes to dog ownership, with Kylie's profound love of the breed leading her to her first fur baby, Winnie, who sadly passed away this past March.

The Super Bowl champ also appears to have known that this type of wild behavior can come with the territory, previously warning fans that while Irish Wolfhounds are "wonderful animals" and that he “absolutely” adores having them as pets, the "giant lap dogs" aren't for everyone.

In February, he said, "If you travel a lot, have limited amount of space, keep food on the counter, and have nice furniture, they may not be for you."
