Rob Gronkowski seems to have a special love for tiny animals.
We're all familiar with his kitten photo shoot from ESPN The Magazine, and over Memorial Day weekend he made a new four-legged friend.
Patriots fan and South Carolina resident Kathy McDonald told us that she bumped into Gronk at a local watering hole and he took a liking to her puppy, Sully.
Who can blame him? The two-month-old Frenchton (Boston terrier-French bulldog mix) is super cute and was even representing Boston sports with a pint-sized Red Sox jersey. Â
Gentle giant Gronk and best buddy Robert Goon couldn't resist posing for a few photos with Sully before continuing with their weekend festivities.
Thanks to Kathy for getting in touch!
