Miranda Lambert is mourning the loss of her sweet dog Cher, who passed away at 15 years old.

In a heartbreaking post, alongside photos of Cher throughout the years, Lambert shared the sad news and memories of her late chihuahua. She wrote, "Our sweet bear Cher crossed over the rainbow bridge yesterday. Cher gave us 15 years of love and all the chihuahua attitude and energy she had to give. And if you have ever had a chi chi you know what I mean. I adopted her from a shelter when she was 10 weeks old in 2010. I put her in my overalls pocket at the shelter and that was it! Her first big trip was to the ACM awards in Las Vegas. @tiffanygiffordstyle matched my dress to her so I could take her on the red carpet. And I won that year so she did the whole press room with me. Like she has been doing it her whole life. She was on every tour I have done since. Thank you to her sweet soul for all the road miles she traveled."

Lambert also noted that she and her husband Brendan McLoughlin have one dog remaining, after rescuing nine dogs seven years ago, explaining, "I was a rescue dog mom of 9 when I met @brendanjmcloughlin 7 years ago, and now we are down to one. ( last slide of Bellamy and Cher ). We sure are ready for a break from the heartbreak y’all, but they are worth every tear we have cried. Animals bring so much joy but I sure do wish dog years didn’t go by so fast. Rescue’s forever."
