The owners of a beloved Northern Ireland dog, who passed away last year, have announced they’re expecting a baby, sharing unseen footage of their pet.
Paul and Jennifer Lavery were the owners of Harley, also known as Harslo the Balancing Hound, who lost his battle with cancer in October.
The couple recently took to social media to share the news, along with a new video of Harlso.
The video shows Harslo balancing a dummy on his head, followed by baby scan photos.
“We feel like this is a blessing sent from Harlso and we couldn’t be happier to share this news with you,” a message in the video read.
“Our family is growing.”

“Before Harlso passed away we filmed this video in the hopes that one day we would share it with some very special news, today that moment has arrived,” the couple added.

Harlso rose to fame in 2016 for his ability to balance items on his head.
The dog gathered over 600,000 followers across a number of platforms.
A few weeks after Harlso passed away last year, Paul and Jennifer shared the news that their beloved pet had been diagnosed with an incurable cancer.
At the time the couple posted on Harlso’s Facebook page saying, “Harlso’s accomplishments are nothing short of legendary”.
They added: “Harlso’s balancing tricks amazed and brought smiles to millions, but his legacy is so much more — he showed us all the power of patience, trust, kindness and determination.”
Describing him as “the greatest”, they added: “He was our pride and joy, our purpose and our best friend.
“We also feel blessed to have shared him with the world.
“Nothing ever fazed him from appearing on TV shows, meet and greets, travelling, even appearing on stage.
“He was a born entertainer, a generational talent, a one in a million dog. It has been the honour and privilege of our lives to be his people.
“Fly high Harley but please do come visit us regularly in our dreams.”
