"This is my daughter Jeffie," Lake, 43, says in a video introducing her 8-year-old goldendoodle. "She's shy."
"My son Owen named her Jeffie after Jeff from The Wiggles," she says. "He was 2 years old and he was obsessed."
Lake will be returning to daytime television this fall as the host of The Ricki Lake Show, and Jeffie, along with canine sibling Pacha, may be joining their mom for appearances on the small screen.
