"You are beautiful, you are going to make my little man jealous," Robin cooed as she cuddled the dog, adding: "He's going to smell you when I get home but it's going to be worth it."

As Trumpet continued to give Robin big kisses, she joked: "You can tell I am a dog person, you know."

Robin and Amber are doting dog moms to Lukas whom they adopted many years ago and Lukas is so popular with the GMA star's fans that he even has his own Instagram account, which is regularly updated.

Robin and Amber adopted Lukas from the North Shore Animal League in Port Washington, New York.

Robin and Amber adopted Lukas from the North Shore Animal League

It identifies itself as the largest no-kill animal rescue and adoption organization in the world. Robin wasn't quite ready to adopt but Amber was, and Lukas, a Tibetan spaniel-papillon mix, caught her eye and the rest was history.

Their adopted "lil man," as he is affectionately known as, has become a firm fixture in their lives.

He lives the life of luxury at their beautiful Connecticut home and enjoys vacations with his much-loved owners, too.

Lukas has also been a source of comfort for the couple during Amber's breast cancer battle. Robin announced the sad news of her partner's illness on GMA earlier in the year, and has been updating her fans on her progress.

Recently Lukas was pictured with another dog called Franklin in a picture from Robin and Amber's Connecticut home, which led fans to wonder if they had adopted a second pooch but it sounds like they're still mom to just one dog for now.
