Carrie Underwood took to Instagram with a heartbreaking tribute to one of her beloved fur babies on Monday morning (April 4), announcing that she lost her dog, Ace. Underwood revealed that “my sweet Ace left this world” on Sunday night (April 3), after years of standing by the award-winning country singer’s side as she lived in three houses, embarked on six tours, and welcomed her two sons over the years. Underwood shared a few sweet photos of Ace over the years, and wrote in her tribute to him:
“Last night my sweet Ace left this world…he will forever live on in our hearts and be forever missed. He was there for me when I was on my own trying to figure out life when it was at its craziest! He was with me through 3 houses, 6 tours and 2 kids…always ready to snuggle and play…through all the highs and lows. He was a true friend and a good boy till the very end. I love you, sweet Ace…see you on the other side…💔”
The post quickly received an outpouring of condolences and support from fans and followers. Fellow country artist Carly Pearce wrote that she’s "So so sorry ❤️.” Others added, “I’m so sorry 😢 Pets become family,” and “So sorry to hear this. Sending love ❤️,” among other heartfelt messages. Underwood recently included Ace and her other dogs — Penny and Zero — in her National Puppy Day post on March 23, sharing that “My babies might be all grown up now (even got one in diapers), but they’ll always be puppies in my heart! Be extra sweet to those furry family members today! ❤️” See her heartbreaking news about Ace here:
