We are total dog lovers here in Shemazing HQ, so we are honestly sad when something bad happens to our furry friends.

Earlier today, Pete Wick announced his dog, Ernest, had passed away.

The TOWIE star took to Instagram to share a snap of himself with his "best friend."

Pete captioned the photo: “Words can't describe how heartbroken I am to have suddenly lost one of the best things to have ever come in to my life. 

“My boy Ernest wasn't just a dog to me, he was my best friend. Things will never be the same. 

“I’m thankful to him for teaching me a lot about myself and everything about unconditional love. 

“He will always be in my heart. R.I.P Ernest #Wolfpack.”
