				 George, the third-in-line to the British throne, was pictured 
				with the family dog Lupo and playing in the grounds of the 
				country mansion in Norfolk, east England, which belongs to his 
				parents, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. 
				 
				Photographs of the young prince, who attends a local nursery, 
				are hugely in demand with the world's media and William and Kate 
				have been fiercely protective of his privacy, leading to some 
				criticism that too few images of the toddler and his one 
				-year-old sister Princess Charlotte have been released. 
				 
				"The Duke and Duchess hope that people will enjoy seeing these 
				new photographs," William's office said in a statement. "They 
				would like to thank everyone for all the lovely messages they 
				have received as Prince George celebrates his third birthday."
