Chelsea Handler is having a very bad day after revealing her beloved dog Chunk had passed away.

The 42 year old comedienne took to Instagram to report the sad news, saying he loved being famous and getting recognized, especially without her, so many people loved him and she really appreciates that and so did he.

The Chow mix was heavily featured on her former show, Chelsea Lately, and he soon developed a following of his own.

Handler even revealed her favorite memory of the canine, saying it came when she was paddle boarding on the Hudson River in upstate New York, with Chunk following her along the shore line. Then he just jumped in and swam a quarter mile to get on her board.

And she cried that day at how much he loved her.

Our thoughts go out to Chelsea during this difficult time.
