Taking to Instagram, Donnie Wahlberg just shared the cutest behind-the-scenes photo after he revealed that he'd brought his 'kids' to the Blue Bloods set. While the actor is a proud parent to two sons – Xavier and Elijah – from his first marriage, Donnie's post actually referred to his adorable Shih Tzu puppies, Lady and Gucci, whom he shares with his wife, Jenny McCarthy – so cute! 

Clearly a doting dog parent, the actor could be seen with his arms wrapped around the two pups, as he took a break from filming the hit CBS show. Captioning the photo, Donnie wrote: "Bring the kids to work day," followed by a love-heart emoji.

Also, Erin is offered an endorsement of her run for D.A. by an influential Harlem pastor in exchange for a professional favor; Gormley comes to Frank with a request regarding a disabled officer who has a connection to Danny; and Jamie tries to make amends with a man he regrets putting away as a young officer."
