Mickey Rourke's dog, Loki, dies

February 18, 2009 by Lance Carter

Ok, so now I hope he wins the Oscar. I have Sean Penn winning…but when a man’s dog dies, you gotta go with him, right?

And what timing? I wonder if all the votes are in already? I think the dog knew what he was doing and timed this perfectly.

Loki passed away on Monday at the age of 18.

If you remember, he thanked the Chihuahua (the “love of his life”) in his Golden Globe speech last month. “I’d like to thank all my dogs, the ones who are here and the ones who aren’t here anymore. Sometimes when a man’s alone, that’s all you got is your dog. And they’ve meant the world to me,” he said.
