Nick Jonas: Elvis is a Dog!

Nick Jonas returns home in Los Angeles on Wednesday with his new golden retriever, Elvis.

The 16-year-old Jonas Brother, who received the pup as a gift from his family on his birthday yesterday, named the pet pooch for two of his musical inspirations, Elvis Costello and Elvis Presley.

Nick was also seen carrying a 3-ring binder that read “Artistry: Golden Retriever”. Read more about it here.

Yesterday, the Jonas Brothers were on the set of their upcoming feature film Jonas Brothers: 3D Concert Film, which will open Feb. 22, 2009. Their younger brother, the Bonus Jonas (Frankie) was also on set.
