Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling’s family is getting paw-sitively furrier.
“Introducing Charlie, our newest member of our familia,” Mendes, 52, wrote via Instagram on Friday, July 31, sharing pics of herself cuddled up to a gray dog. “We’re in love! Gracias to @californiadoodlerescues ♥️.”
Mendes and Gosling, 45, who have been together since 2011, have not offered any additional insight into their private life after rescuing Charlie. They adopted another canine from the same organization, a dog named Magic, in 2024.
Years before adopting Charlie and Magic, Mendes and Gosling shared rescue pup George, who died in 2016.
“He passed away in December. It’s funny to say ‘dog’ because … there was something about George where I think he felt like being a dog was beneath him,” Gosling said on the now-defunct Ellen DeGeneres Show in October 2017, announcing that the 17-year-old dog had died. “He would not do tricks. If you wanted him to sit down, you had to convince him it was in his best interest.”
The Project Hail Mary star added at the time, “George, as he started to age, started looking like an aging rock star. He was sort of skinny-fat and he had big hair, you know, no teeth, open sores, but still sexy. … One time we were at an outdoor restaurant and he was sitting on the pavement looking forlorn down the street. Someone got up to go to the restroom, and he, I guess, had enough and he got up onto their seat and sat down at the table like a gentleman and looked around the table like, ‘Yeah, that’s right.’”

In addition to Mendes and Goslings’ four-legged companions, the longtime couple are parents of daughters Esmeralda, 11, and Amada, 9.

“I hope I don’t look back in 20 years and go, ‘Oh, shoot,’ because I really don’t want to raise by fear,” Mendes said on a 2024 episode of the “Parenting & You” podcast, revealing she hoped to raise her kids differently than how she grew up. “I get emotional over it because it’s so not fair to the kids. I hope that I’m not unknowingly putting some pressure on them through fear like I was raised.”
Gosling has also been candid about becoming a parent, telling the Wall Street Journal later that year how he no longer has an interest in portraying admittedly “dark” acting roles.
“I don’t really take roles that are going to put me in some kind of dark place,” the Barbie actor told the outlet. “This moment is what I feel like trying to read the room at home and feel like what is going to be best for all of us. The decisions I make, I make them with Eva and we make them with our family in mind first.”
