Lara Trump takes her son Luke to visit a dog shelter

Lara Trump celebrated her three-month-old son Luke’s first Christmas this week, and the mom is having a blast showing her only child around her home town. 

The 35-year-old spent the first half of her holiday vacation with her husband Eric’s family at his father’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, before they headed to Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina, to enjoy Christmas with her family.

Although little Luke is no stranger to the beach, Lara also took her son to visit one of her favorite places in North Carolina: an animal shelter

Paws Place is a no-kill, non-profit shelter that is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption of dogs. 

Lara is an dedicated animal rights activist, who adopted her own rescue dog, Ben, last year, and she proudly shared Instagram photos of little Luke meeting some of the dogs at the shelter the day after Christmas. 

In the first photo, Lara is holding Luke in her arms while she squats down to show him a rescue dog that is standing behind a metal gate. 

Lara and Luke are pictured posing next to a different rescue pup in another photo from the day-trip.

Luke is bundled up in a light blue knit hat and matching blanket, while Lara is dressed casually in a leather jacket, jeans, and sneakers. 

‘Thrilled I got to share one of my favorite places at home with Luke today,’ she captioned the images, using the hashtag ‘AdoptDon’tShop.’

Visiting Paws Place after Christmas has become somewhat of a tradition for Lara, who stopped by the shelter on the same day last year. 

Lara and Eric also have a beagle named Charlie, and the proud mom kicked off the holiday by sharing an adorable photo of the pup lying next to Luke on Christmas Eve.

Although it’s unclear where they spent Christmas Eve, the family was in North Carolina on Christmas Day. 

Lara tagged Wrightsville Beach as her location when she shared a photo of her pro-Trump coffee mug that morning. 

She later shared a photo of herself holding Luke and Ben on the beach, while Eric cuddled with Charlie.

It has been a busy week for the family, who celebrated Lara’s father Robert Yunaska’s birthday on Wednesday.
