Green Bay Packers linebacker Blake Martinezhas made the important decision to open his heart to a new creature, specifically a malamute puppy.
Looking for malamute puppy! Does anyone know of a great breeder?
This type of dog seems to be ideally suited to the cold weather of Green Bay, since it was bred as a sled dog.
However, that didn't stop fans responding on social media from advising Martinez to try to find a local shelter dog.
The linebacker doesn't appear worried that a new puppy might distract him from his game.
