Russell Crowe Heartbreaking Update About Puppy
Actor Russell Crowe took to Twitter to share a sad update about his puppy, Louis. The star shared a photo of the 16-month-old dog, along with the message, “This is Louis the Papillion. 16 months old. Tiny, cheeky, brave. He won my heart.”
He went on, delivering heartbreaking news: “Unfortunately today, on the second anniversary of my fathers passing, Louis was hit by a truck. We tried to get him to the vet, but he died in my arms while I was telling him how much we loved him.”
Many friends and fans shared their condolences in the replies.
Vincent D’Onofrio wrote, “So sorry to hear this Russel [sic]. My heart goes out to you,” while a fan replied, “I am so sorry! What a beautiful face and those eyes. I like to think our pets wait for us to join them one day, loyal as ever.”
Many people wrote of their own experiences losing pets, relating to the sadness Crowe must be feeling right now.
Last December, Crowe shared a look at his sweet relationship with Louis, posting a photo of himself and the dog wearing matching polo shirts.
He wrote in the caption, “I’m not at all a fan of dressing dogs up, but, a friend bought little Louis a @RalphLauren polo so he can match with dad. I think the other dogs on the farm are going to get jealous. Pretty funny.”
Sadly, the death of Louis fell on the same day as the anniversary of Crowe’s father’s death. John Alexander Crowe passed away on March 30, 2021, at the age of 85.
At the time, Crowe shared some of his thoughts on Twitter, writing, “I arrived back in the bush last night. Today, although the sun is shining and the torrential rain has abated, this date will forever be tinged with sadness. My dear old man, my beautiful dad, the most gentle of men, has passed away.”
He continued in a reply, “I had a father who’s pride in my efforts gave me strength. I had a father who was married to my mother for 59 years and 4 months. Until death, they had never parted. I had a father I wish for everyone else. Grief has a thousand shards, but love is stronger.”
