It’s unclear if Pete the Beagle will take after his famous sister and have his own official social media accounts.

After rescuing Miss Peaches, Portnoy sold T-shirts and other merchandise that raised more than $250,000, all of which he donated to LifeLine Animal Project. There’s no word on if he plans to do the same after adopting Pete.
