Gina Kirschenheiter is feeling major puppy love in spite of herself. On September 16, The Real Housewives of Orange County newbie took to Instagram to share the news of her latest family addition.

Showing a photo of herself with her three kids and her husband Matt, from whom she has separated and has filed for divorce, Gina wrote a caption that pointed to the furry new family member in the foreground. "It’s a girl! Please welcome the newest addition to our family. Hilda Kirschenheiter the German Shepherd," she wrote, adding three smiling emoji. The ever-frank Gina added: "For the record I was against this and unanimously overruled."

From the smiles on all the Kirschenheiters' faces, though, it seems like Gina isn't regretting her decision one bit. Just look at the delight in the new dog-owners' faces — the RHOC pal included!

In slightly less exciting news, Gina also announced that Sunday is "scrub the toilet days in the Kirschenheiter household." So, now we know that Hilda won't only have a very loving home, but also a very clean one!
