Joe Jonas And Sophie Turner Sought Therapy After The Death Of Their Puppy

Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner may have been in the middle of enjoying wedded life with each other, although that didn't keep tragedy from striking.


Unfortunately, the pair's Alaskan Klee Kai puppy Waldo Picasso ended up passing away on Saturday (July 27) right after being struck by a vehicle in what a rep for the couple has called a "freak accident."


The dog (former sibling to Sophie and Joe's other puppy Porky Basquiat) was reportedly stricken and killed by a car soon after breaking free from his leash and running into the street.


"Their dog walker had Waldo on a leash any time the dog got spooked by a pedestrian, broke free, ran into the street and was hit by a car TMZ originally announced. Tragically, the dog passed away after the accident, which lead to Joe and Sophie waiting nearly two days to report it since they were grieving so heavily. They reportedly sought treatment from a therapist right following the accident occurred.


The pair had originally adopted Waldo as their second puppy back in April 2018, making the decision to welcome him into the family member from the same litter as their other dog Porky. Waldo had his own personal Instagram account that had already amassed over 45,000 followers before he passed away, with just one photo.


In more unfortunate news, the driver who hit the pair's beloved pooch and fled the scene last week won't just be facing criminal expenses, because the animal is imagined property. It's a heartbreaking turn of events for the now-wedded pair, who have made it very clear time and time again how much they love their animals, even making Waldo's brother Porky Basquiat a segment of their wedding.


Here's to hoping time can heal Joe and Sophie's wounds rapidly, and we'll all hug our pups a little bit tighter tonight in Waldo's honor. Rest in peace, sweet boy.
