Tom Brady is mourning the death of Lua, the sweet pitbull mix that he and Gisele Bundchen adopted together earlier in their marriage. Their special family canine member passed away just two days before Christmas.
We love you Lua. Forever in our hearts

It was on Instagram that Brady announced the heartbreaking news on Saturday; he shared pictures of his children hugging the dog. On Gisele’s Instagram, she also shared a photo of her hugging Lua.

Lulu had always been a beloved family member and regularly had her photos posted on Instagram. She shared the canine spotlight with another rescue dog named Fluffy.
No doubt that Tom has been a huge animal lover and rescued pets supporter. Early this year, Brady, his son and daughter had volunteered at an animal shelter in Tampa. Tom and his younger children, Ben and Vivien loved the experience at the shelter, had lots of fun naming puppies and bottle feeding kittens. And it wasn’t just once that Tom volunteered – without the need for drama and the press, Tom went regularly because he truly loves animals and wanted to show how he and his family could make a difference.
Rest in peace Lulu. If only all rescued dogs could be as lucky, as happy and as loved as you have been.
All dogs go to heaven.
