‘World’s cutest dog’ Boo dies of ‘broken heart’

San Francisco: Boo, the world’s cutest dog, has died of a “broken heart”, his owners have confirmed.

Boo, a pomeranian, and his companion Buddy, who died last year, became internet sensations when their owners started sharing pictures of their adorable antics.

His death was confirmed in a post made by his owners to his 16 million Facebook followers. He was 12 years old, in human years.



“Shortly after Buddy died, Boo showed signs of heart issues. We think his heart literally broke when Buddy left us,” his owners wrote.
 
“He hung on and gave us over a year. But it looks like it was his time, and I’m sure it was a most joyous moment for them when they saw each other in heaven.”
 
“Our family is heartbroken, but we find comfort knowing that he is no longer in any pain or discomfort,” they wrote.
