No word on the pups' names, though fans are guessing at least one may be named \"Rocket\" -- or perhaps \"Bennie\" and \"Jet.\"

John is a dog lover: In 2018, he mourned the death of his cocker spaniel Arthur, who died at age 14. The singer loved Arthur so much that he had him act as best man at his civil union to David. At that time, the couple also had two other cocker spaniels, Marilyn and Isobella. It's not clear if they're still around.
