Mickey Rourke’s Chihuahua died

One of Mickey Rourke’s beloved Chihuahuas has died.

Loki, the actor’s 17-year-old dog died in his arms Monday. Rourke is known for his dedication to his dogs. Being a Chihuahua owner myself I can understand his dedication.

Rourke who has recently received acclaim for his performance in “The Wrestler,” thanked his dogs after winning the Golden Globe for best actor last month.

“Sometimes when a man’s alone, all you got is your dog,” he said.

How true.
