JAKARTA - The Princess of Wales or Kate Middleton shared a light story about her family's new puppy, Otto. The one-year-old cocker spaniel puppy apparently had bitten and chewed a lot of things in the house.

Citing a People report, Wednesday, May 13, the story was told by the Princess of Wales while attending a garden party at Buckingham Palace on May 8. Citing a Hello! report, Kate said Otto "chewed quite a bit" a few days earlier.

"You have to keep them busy," Kate said.

He then shared the Wales family's morning routine so that Otto would not make a fuss again.

"The first thing we do every morning is check, 'Did anyone take Otto out?'" Kate said.

Otto is the son of Orla, William and Kate's pet dog. Otto was only introduced to the public through a family photo released last month to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the marriage of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

The Wales family has long been known as dog lovers. William and Kate's first dog, Lupo, was also a black cocker spaniel. Lupo was a wedding gift from Kate's younger brother, James Middleton.

Not long before Lupo died in 2020, William and Kate brought Orla into their family. From Orla, Otto was born.

On the other hand, James Middleton also attended a dog-themed event with Queen Camilla at Clarence House on May 12. The event involved Medical Detection Dogs, a foundation that trains dogs to help detect early signs of a number of types of cancer.

The issue is close to the royal family after King Charles and Kate both underwent cancer treatment in recent years.

The dogs' olfactory abilities are also being studied to develop an AI technology in the form of an "electronic nose", which is expected to mimic the accuracy of dog diagnosis on a wider scale.

James also supported the event through his dog food company, James & Ella, which donated snacks for the Medical Detection Dogs.

"It's a great honor to be a part of this foundation," James said.
