Jennifer Lawrence has revealed the tough decision she was forced to make about her pet dog after welcoming children.

The Hunger Games star, 35, reportedly said after a screening of her new film, Die My Love, per multiple outlets, that she decided to rehome her pooch, a chihuahua named Princess Pippi Longstocking, after a dog bit her son Cy, three.

The mother-of-two said her dog now lives with her parents, and implied the decision came from a protective perspective, as she now sees all dogs “as a threat”.
