Shep Rose & (Lil) Craig Reunite with Southern Charm Alum, John Pringle: "Like Old Times"
The Southern Charm cast member and his dog had a big night out on the town with the alum.
If there is one thing to know about Southern Charm's Shep Rose, it's that he loves to catch up with his buddies. Whether Shep is hanging with Craig Conover or catching up with old friends from before we met him on Southern Charm, Shep knows fun.
This is even true with Southern Charm alums. Case in point: Shep recently hung out with his longtime college friend, John Pringle, where they had the most epic night out on the town. And, of course, Shep's beloved French bulldog, Lil' Craig, had to join in on the fun.
Shep Rose's Night Out with John Pringle and Lil' Craig
John took to his Instagram Story earlier this week, where he posted a photo and video from his and Shep's night out at the bar. In the first video, Shep can be seen on stage with a microphone in his hand, alongside two women and his dog, commanding the attention of the audience. While it's unclear what they were singing, Shep looks like a total rock star.
"Shep and little Craig giving their all at Karaoke," John wrote over the photo. "Feels like old times."
John also posted a selfie of him and Shep next to each other, while Lil' Craig kissed his face. "I love Lil' Craig," the dad of two added on top of the hilarious snapshot.

What is John Pringle up to after leaving Southern Charm?
During Southern Charm Seasons 7 and 8, John ruffled some feathers as he pursued Madison LeCroy, and made comments about Shep being jealous of Craig's success. But John has been busy since leaving the show, as he continues to co-parent his two sons, Quinn and Asher.
John, according to his Instagram bio, is a realtor while he pursues his dreams of being a musician. He recently released a Christmas song, "Christmas in Bruges" and has been known to play a show or two around Charleston.
In February, John declared that he would be traveling less for the sake of his sons. "Boys and I collectively decided I would stay here and focus on business instead of traveling out every month like I have the last 5 years," he wrote in the caption of a February Instagram post.
Why is Shep's dog named Lil' Craig?
Well, he's named after Craig Conover! Big Craig and Lil' Craig might not look too much alike, but Shep's pup is named after his close friend. Shep explained the reason behind the name in an interview with The Daily Dish in 2022.
"The genesis of Lil' Craig is this: My dad was a lawyer for many years," he said. "He's retired now. And he had a client that owned a giant farm. And the client affectionately named the mule after my dad. My dad's name is Rip so one of the mules was named Rip. I was a child at the time, and I thought that was so funny. It's an homage, rather than a jab, trust me."
