Tori Spelling Mourns The Loss Of Her Pug, Mimi LaRue

The pug community has lost one of its great ones day – Mimi LaRue, the beloved 11-year-old pug of Tori Spelling – has passed on to the great Peach Pit kennel in the sky, People reports.

Mimi died from natural causes.

“She was a star and a true lady, and she will be missed greatly,” Spelling told People. “People everywhere knew her by name. I loved when fans wanted her over me. I felt proud!”

According to People, Mimi LaRue passed on at her home surrounded by her entire family. She lived long enough to meet her human sister, Stella, who was born just last week, and to witness the Oxygen premiere of “Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood,” in which she was a central character.

“I’m devastated,” Spelling told People. “I’m convinced she waited around to make sure I had the daughter I always dreamt about before she left us.”

“She was not just a dog, but a fashion icon and legend amongst Hollywood dogs,” Spelling added. “She received fan e-mail on a regular basis, and I often joked she got sent more designer clothes than me!… She was a loving pet and a true diva to the end.”
