Father of Five, Arnold Schwarzenegger Welcomes Two New Members to His “Kingdom”

It’s no secret that Arnold Schwarzenegger loves animals. Anyone who follows the seven-time Mr. Olympia on social media has seen the bodybuilding legend post photos with his pets. In fact, Schwarzenegger’s pet donkey Lulu is quite popular and appears most frequently on his social media. Over the years, the bodybuilding legend has also welcomed more pets into his home. The father of five has even adopted pets that belonged to his children. Earlier today, the former Mr. Olympia posted a video of his pets.

The Hollywood action icon shot the video and uploaded it to Instagram. He also introduced his fans to the two newest members of his growing pet family.

The more the merrier

In his most recent Instagram post, the pet parent showed fans a glimpse of his property, the entrance to his home, and the swimming pool. However, the subjects of the video were inside and around the pool. The cameraman filmed Arnold Schwarzenegger’s pets while Louis Armstrong’s What a Wonderful World played.

Many of his pets appeared in the video. Two dogs, one of which was a husky, circled the pool as two ducks swam in the water. The dogs were curious about the ducks in the middle of the large swimming pool but didn’t jump in to get a closer look. The video then panned to the left to reveal Arnold Schwarzenegger watching the animals from afar. Lulu, his pet donkey, was beside him.

The video then panned back to focus on the ducks who took flight moments later. In a cinematic shot, the camera focused on the two ducks that flew toward the trees. That ended the video. The seven-time Mr. Olmypia captioned the post, “The animal kingdom is growing.” It seems the ducks are two of the newest members of Schwarzenegger’s pet family.

It’s evident that the former Mr. Universe’s home is a pet paradise, but how many pets does Arnold Schwarzenegger have? Let’s find out.
