Falleció Boo, el "perro más bonito del mundo" y que fue furor en redes sociales

A través de un posteo en redes sociales, los dueños de Boo the Pomeranian anunciaron su fallecimiento a los 12 años de edad debido a un problema de salud.

"Con la mayor tristeza quería compartir que Boo falleció mientras dormía temprano esta mañana... Nuestra familia está desconsolada, pero nos sentimos cómodos al saber que ya no está en ninguna situación de dolor o malestar", escribieron en su cuenta.

Boo sufrió problemas cardíacos, según la declaración de sus dueños, quienes también tenían un perro llamado Buddy.

"Boo mostró signos de problemas del corazón. Creemos que su corazón se rompió literalmente cuando Buddy nos dejó. Aguantó y nos dio más de un año. Pero parece que era su momento, y estoy seguro de que fue un momento muy feliz para ellos cuando se vieron en el cielo", se lee en el comunicado.

Boo se convirtió en uno de los animales más queridos en Facebook, con más de 16 millones de seguidores. Y en Instagram la cuenta tiene más de 560 mil cuentas que seguían sus imágenes.

Además de obtener un gran número de seguidores en redes sociales, Boo también lanzó en 2011 su propio libro, titulado "Boo: La vida del perro más lindo del mundo" en 2011, lo que le valió también su denominación.

Dearest friends of Boo, With deepest sadness I wanted to share that Boo passed away in his sleep early this morning and has left us to join his best friend, Buddy. Our family is heartbroken, but we find comfort knowing that he is no longer in any pain or discomfort. We know that Buddy was the first to greet him on the other side of that rainbow bridge, and this is likely the most excited either of them have been in a long time. Since starting Boo’s FB page, I’ve received so many notes over the years from people sharing stories of how Boo brightened their days and helped bring a little light to their lives during difficult times. And that was really the purpose of all this...Boo brought joy to people all over the world. Boo is the happiest dog I’ve ever met. He was so easy going that we never had to bother with training. He made the manliest of men squeal with delight over his cuteness and made everyone laugh with his quirky, tail wagging personality. Over the years Boo met some super cool people, a lot of crazy talented people, but most of all so many kind people...friends who gave him endless love, people who prioritized his comfort over getting that perfect picture, partners who understood that Buddy ALWAYS had to be included, and last but definitely not least, the amazing doctors, therapists, and staff at Adobe Animal Hospital and Sage Veterinary Centers for the countless hours of care and dedication they poured into Buddy and Boo. I brought Boo home in the spring of 2006 and so started the greatest, most heartwarming friendship of all time. Shortly after Buddy died, Boo showed signs of heart issues. We think his heart literally broke when Buddy left us. 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. Boo, we love you with all our hearts and will miss you until the day we meet again. Have fun running around with Buddy and creating adorable mischief wherever you guys go. Thank you to all of you for following along on their silly adventures over the past 10 years. They sure had a LOT of fun. With love and our deepest gratitude, Boo’s humans
