Kaley Cuoco has a brand new Instagram account, and it isn't throwbacks of her picking Cheetos out her hair on "The Big Bang Theory." The 34-year-old actress made the decision to set her chihuahua Dumptruck Dumpy with his very own feed during her NYC travels – if you aren't up-to-date, Kaley left Los Angeles for the Big Apple this month to resume shooting for upcoming HBO Max series "The Flight Attendant."
@dumps_does_ny is the brilliant Instagram account dedicated to this pup's amusing take on his owner's NYC trip. Check it out below.

Dumptruck Dumpy, who has racked up over 43,000 followers in just a few days, is the chihuahua initially planned to be a pandemic foster. Kaley and billionaire heir husband Karl Cook fell in love so badly, the four-legged addition became a permanent one as the sitcom star dubbed Dumpy a "foster fail."
Kaley, herself followed by 6.1 million on Instagram, dedicates a significant chunk of her feed to #WheresDumpy and this dog's remarkable ability to go missing in the star's new $12 million Hidden Hills estate.
There's a new video and Instagram is absolutely loving it.

Scroll for the video. It comes as Kaley and 31-year-old sister Briana Cuoco are forced to quarantine for 14 days, per New York laws. The "Harley Quinn" co-stars are in the same digs, with today proving a rainy deal as Kaley shared dreary window shots and a 68-degree temperature.
The video showed Kaley cozied up in bed and under a gray blanket while covering Dumpy in morning smooches. The actress eventually brought out her stunning smile, saying: "Hi." A caption from Dumpy read: "This is how we wake up."
Check out the meaning behind Dumpy's name after the video.

Kaley and 2018-married husband Karl are already owners of dogs including Norman, Ruby, Blueberry, and latest addition Petunia. Speaking in March when Dumpy arrived, Kaley said:
"So I figured I should probably walk the walk and not just keep telling you to foster.So… I give you… old man Dumptruck! That’s really his name. Aka Dumpy."
She added: "I just gave him a bath and he’s very tired. He’s as precious as can be. He’s a senior chihuahua. He’s actually great with my dogs." Kaley's rabbit also has his own IG: @simon_silly_rabbit.
Dumpy has also featured on the star's hit "A Cup of Cuoco" Instagram series. Check out an episode below.

Kaley has been making headlines for the impromptu Instagram videos forming her "A Cup of Cuoco" series. The low-frills videos show Kaley enjoying her first coffee of the day while sharing her random thoughts. Recent episodes have seen her confirm returning to shooting "The Flight Attendant," also showing off the lavish home she and Karl moved into in mid-March.
Dumpy's Instagram so far largely features him sitting in his travel case, although he has had his first paparazzi moment, with Kaley snapped in a full face shield as she walked him on NYC streets. As promised, "A Cup of Cuoco" is below the jump. Just scroll.
