TV star and musician JoJo Siwa's puppy has died following a tragic accident she said could not have been prevented.
The 19-year-old actress shared the heartbreaking news with her social media followers on Friday.
"(Two) months ago our puppy Tooie (O2) joined our family and he brought the MOST joy, laughter, and messes into our life," Siwa wrote in the caption of a TikTok clip.
The video showed her hugging the dog before having him dance to to the song Boom Boom Pow by the Black Eyed Peas.
"My heart hurts so much to say that this morning he was involved in an accident and is now in puppy heaven," she added.
The celebrity said the pet was "perfect" and that she will miss him dearly.
"Thank you for bringing light to my life when it was dark tooie boy," Siwa said.
"See you one day. rest in peace my lil sweet boy."
The devastated star did not specify what happened to the dog in the video, but the Daily Mail has reported that the pet was attacked by a coyote in Siwa's backyard.
The star did add in a few more details for fans in a separate TikTok that has since been deleted.
"There was an accident with him this morning and it’s nothing that anybody could have done anything to prevent, so it’s no one’s fault," she said.
"He hopefully didn’t suffer – I feel like it was pretty quick."
Siwa was featured on two seasons of the reality show Dance Moms.
She has also starred in several children's shows for the network Nickelodeon.
Representatives for Siwa did not immediately respond to the U.S. Sun's request for comment.
