Travis Kelce gushed about his and wife Taylor Swift’s dog, Wendy, for the first time on the NFL star’s “New Heights” podcast return.
During Wednesday’s podcast episode, Travis’ brother and co-host, Jason Kelce, said he didn’t realize news about Wendy was “out of the bag” following the Samoyed’s fashion debut in the tight end’s Tommy Hilfiger campaign.
“She is officially a picture dog. We gotta get the line in her size,” Travis, 36, replied.
“Unfortunately, she’s just got her fur on. We gotta work with Tommy on getting her some good clothes,” he quipped.
The Kansas City Chiefs star said he talked to Swift, also 36, about having Wendy in the photo shoot and the singer was “all for it.”
“It’s kind of crazy how perfect she looks in the Tommy Hilfiger world. She matches the brand and the shoot and it was pretty easy to get her to jump on the couch and have some fun with us,” he said of the furry pup.
“But yeah, Wendy’s a model. She’s a model dog,” the athlete added.

Travis also revealed that he and the “Bad Blood” singer have had Wendy for a while now.
“Little ‘ol Wendy’s a little over a year old now. We’ve had her for quite a while,” he shared, adding that the pair was “trying to keep it under wraps.”
On Tuesday, Travis and Swift’s dog’s name was finally revealed to be Wendy after the animal posed with her dad in the Hilfiger ad at the Plaza Hotel in New York City.
The dog’s name may have a connection to both the three-time Super Bowl champ and the Grammy winner.
Travis previously revealed in a “New Heights” episode that his favorite ’90s character was Marley Shelton’s character Wendy Peffercorn on “The Sandlot.”
Swift has also referenced Peter Pan several times in her music. In the novel, Wendy travels with Peter to the magical world of Neverland.
Fans first noticed the couple had become dog parents when an image of them posing with a white furry friend at their star-studded nuptials was leaked.
Wendy was then seen traveling with Travis via Swift’s private plane to Palm Beach, Florida, in July.
Page Six exclusively reported the pair got the pooch “many months” ago and have had Wendy for “close to a year.”
