Justin Theroux recently took a brief hiatus from social media, during which time he and Jennifer Aniston announced their split after two years of marriage. But – drum roll, please – Justin is now back on Instagram, and he's been joined by puppies.
Just yesterday, the actor posted a series of photos of him with newborn puppies and other dogs (one of which adorably bit him on the nose), along with a caption about Austin Pets Alive, an organisation that works to reduce the number of animals killed in shelters.
Justin wrote: "Another very inspiring visit with the incredible people and pups @austinpetsalive. I cannot understand how they do what they do, day after day, so consistently and lovingly to save so many dogs and cats. I HIGHLY recommend going in and getting your nose bit by a toothless baby pitbull. Thes two aren't yet ready to go, but when they are go get em..."
He then showed off his Instagram skillz by including a number of hashtags, including #adoptdontshop, #seniordogsrule, and #selenagomez. Justin most likely added that last one to boost the post's visibility, as he also added a hashtag about Selena that is far too long to post here, but you can see it above. Well played, Justin.
This was his first foray into the news since Justin and Jennifer announced their split on February 15.
The couple released a statement that the decision "was mutual and lovingly made at the end of last year" and that the announcement was made publicly "in an effort to reduce any further speculation".
