While Costner hasn’t unveiled the name of the puppy just yet, his followers have eagerly stepped in to offer suggestions. Among them, the name “Crash” has emerged as a popular choice, paying homage to Kevin Costner’s iconic character from the 1988 sports film “Bull Durham.”

Kevin Costner’s New Dog Brings Joy Into What’s Been a Tough Year

Costner’s introduction of a new member to the household couldn’t have been timed better. It’s been quite the rollercoaster year for the actor, with his departure from the beloved series Yellowstone and going through a divorce with his wife of 18 years, Christine Baumgartner.

Reports suggested various reasons for his departure from Yellowstone, with disagreements over his pay being a major issue. The divorce process, lasting four months and largely centered around child support issues, added to the difficulties.

However, in the middle of these challenges, the arrival of a cute Labrador puppy seems to have brought newfound joy to Costner’s life.
