Overview
- Peace shared a December 26 Instagram video of her daughters learning about and meeting the new dog.
- She said Ellie Dickinson drove up the M6, stayed overnight, and collected the puppy on Christmas Eve after telling the children on December 23.
- The pup is a shih tzu–dachshund cross described as a “schweenie,” with Peace’s caption naming him Otis.
- Coverage notes some reports used the name Oti, though Peace’s post identifies the dog as Otis.
- The family had been considering another pet since their dog Bungle died three years ago, with the happy news following both spouses’ breast cancer disclosures and Peace’s chemotherapy and surgery earlier this year.
