Miranda Lambert is mourning the loss of her beloved rescue dog
Jessi. The country music star announced on Thursday (July 29) that her companion of more than 13 years had passed away.
"Today we had to say goodbye to our sweet Jessi," she wrote in an emotional tribute on her Instagram alongside a series of photos. In the photos, Lambert is all smiles with her companion from the time she was a puppy to now. "I got to love her and be her mom for 13 1/2 years."
The "Somethin' Bad" singer remembered rescuing Jessi and her brother
Waylon from the side of an Oklahoma road in 2008 when they were just 6 weeks old and revealed the fateful inspiration behind their names.
