Family dog of Jason and Kylie Kelce has passed away
Kylie Kelce, whose claim to fame is marrying NFL legend Jason Kelce, has used her husband's fame to launch a successful influencer career herself. Jason Kelce's wife now has many followers on social media, and they all just received an incredibly sad announcement.
The Daily Mail reports that "Kylie Kelce has announced she is mourning the death of their family dog, an Irish wolfhound called Baloo."
It's heartbreaking news, especially because Kylie and Jason are expecting to welcome a new child very soon, and because it happened almost exactly a year after their other Irish wolfhound, Winnie, had died.
When Winnie died, Kylie Kelce said, "When I was in high school I had a folder on my desktop labeled 'Gods gift to earth.' It was images of Irish Wolfhounds that I had collected from Google."
"I had fallen in love with the breed when I was young and never let my fascination with them fade. It all led me to Winnie and holy s*** did she live up to the hype. She was everything I had hoped for in a Wolfie and more."
Kylie Kelce mourns
"When I told the girls that Baloo was going to leave us, Ellie asked where he was going," Kylie Kelce said. "I told her that he was going to heaven and without skipping a beat she replied, 'Oh! He'll get to be with Winnie again! They'll be so happy to see each other!'"
"We were lucky enough to have 7 years with the goofiest, sweetest, most lovable, and tolerant dog I've ever met. He wanted nothing more than carbs and pets," Kelce continued.
"He was a simple guy, held together by bubble gum and paper clips. The heartbreak is immense, but as Ellie so perfectly pointed out, the Winnie-Bubba reunion had to be pure magic. Miss you already Bubbies."

Baloo was a male and Winnie was a female. Pet lovers will understand this: Kylie said that she thinks of Winnie as her first child.
"I lost part of my soul today, but I know she is at peace. I love you, Winn. You will always be my first born child," Kylie said when Winnie died.
Remembered by family and fans alike
It wasn't just Kylie who loved this dog, fans will remember Baloo for "gatecrashing an episode of New Heights by barking in the background or even once running across the screen."
New Heights is the name of the podcast hosted by famous NFL brothers Jason and Travis Kelce.
"Goddamn, what the f*** is that?" Travis said to his brother after seeing the size of Baloo. "Oh nice he just wanted to get on that nice cool leather couch. Pet him, you gotta pet him, you cant just let him in!"
Pets are part of the family!
Please pray for the Kelces as they mourn losing a part of their hearts and their family.
