KEY POINTS

South Korean girl group Twice’s member Tzuyu took to Instagram to announce that her beloved pet dog Gucci had passed away.

The 21-year-old singer, on Wednesday, posted a message on Twice’s official Instagram page with a heart-felt message addressed to Gucci.

“Originally, I was going to go see pets today to adopt them, but Gucci left our side yesterday afternoon. Gucci. Thank you for leaving us with good memories. Now you need to go, and stay in a better place. We’ll pray for you from here,” she mentioned in the post.

The singer expressed her love for Gucci who had been with her for 11 years. She also talked about the wonderful memories she shared with her pet in a long post.

“I was originally planning to adopt a mommy and daughter pair of dogs, and I was going to see them on September 24. However, you left our side yesterday. Our baby Gucci…  

You really left us. Every time I would go home, I cherished the time I had with you. I would pet you and kiss you because I never knew when the next time I would be able to see you again and if I could even see you again, especially because I can’t go home often to see you during the year. Even though I couldn’t see you much, you already turned 11 years old. I knew your health was slowly declining. I was heartbroken to hear you left our side.  

You were a dog who was warm, considerate, cute, handsome, smart, and nice. You had that unique charm in your personality, and as you quietly watched around us, you spent both happy and sad times with us,” she wrote while recalling her memories of Gucci, according to Allkpop. Tzuyu went on to express how glad she was to have had the dog in her life and said that she along with her family would miss it a lot. 

“I’ll remember the sound of you walking around, wearing your bell, the sound of your barks, and your pretty, big, round eyes.  I hope you’ll be happy in another world. We love you Gucci, and we’ll pray for you to be in a better place,” she added.

Gucci passed away due to old age and fading health. Tzuyu had Gucci since the age of 10 and would often post images of her pet on Twice’s official social media accounts.
