Ariana Grande is having trouble saving these tears.
The “Side to Side” singer shared that her dog Coco, a Dachshund and German Shepherd mix, had died at the age of 17 in a heartbreaking tribute.
“Sweetest, most amazing and most beautiful Coco,” Grande wrote on Instagram Oct. 19. “I am so proud of you. Thank you for your love, and for blessing this planet with your physical presence for over seventeen wonderful years.”
“You make everywhere you go a more beautiful place,” she continued. “I will miss you every day and hold you in my heart always. I love you so, sweet girl.”
Alongside the heartfelt message, the 33-year-old included several photos of Coco through the years, including pictures of her cuddling her precious pooch, one of Coco standing on Grande’s ballet slippers and another showing Coco’s 17th birthday celebration, which included a bone-shaped cake.
Grande also posted a video of Coco as she encouraged the sweet pet with affirmations for her “morning leap” from the front of the house, saying, “Come on girlie, come on you got it.”
