JoJo Siwa has taken to her Instagram story to share an emotional post regarding the loss of her dog, Tooie, who died in a ‘tragic accident’ back in April. Jojo had her pup for two months before he tragically died, and she recently took to her Instagram stories to say she “misses him a little extra” almost three months after the accident.

What happened to JoJo Siwa’s dog?
JoJo Siwa’s dog, Tooie (O2), was killed in a fatal accident back in April. She had had her pet for two months before the tragic accident took place.
The Dance Mom stars didn’t disclose exactly what had happened to her beloved pup, although the Daily Mail reported he was killed by a coyote in the backyard. However, it appears that influencer JoJo has now confirmed this via a later TikTok.
Taking to her TikTok at the time, JoJo said: “My heart hurts so much to say that this morning he was involved in an accident and is now in puppy heaven.”
The Dance Mom star recently celebrated her 20th birthday
Siwa became a reality star at nine years old when she competed in the Dance Moms spinoff Abby’s Ultimate Dance Competition in 2013.
For OG fans, it may be difficult to believe that the star recently turned 20 after watching the star grow from a child to an adult on the TV screen.
It seemed like JoJo enjoyed every minute of her birthday cruise as she partied with a group of friends. Taking to her social media, the star shared a highlight reel of her celebrations captioned: “Take me back in time.”
