SAD NEWS: Jennifer Garner mourns…Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jennifer Garner for her tragic loss ahead of the Holiday
Jennifer Garner is mourning the death of her cherished dog, Birdie, just a day before Thanksgiving. In an emotional Instagram post, the actress shared the news with her followers, calling Birdie “the world’s best dog.”
“It is hard to know how to write this— it seems nuts, given the world, to mourn a pet, but since we have shared Birdie with all of you, it only seems fair to let you know of her passing,” Jennifer wrote. She explained that Birdie had suddenly fallen ill on Thursday, and a visit to the vet revealed her pet was at the end of her life.
Jennifer expressed gratitude for the timing, noting that Birdie seemed to wait for one of her children to come home from college. This allowed the family to spend their final moments together, petting Birdie’s soft ears and thanking her for the love she brought into their lives.
For the actress, Birdie was more than a pet—she was a treasured member of the family. The golden retriever had a special love for being read to and frequently appeared in Jennifer’s popular Instagram series, “Pretend Cooking Show.” She was also a therapy dog who brought comfort and joy to many.
