This makes us sad
Not to end the week on a bad note but Tori Spelling’s beloved pug Mimi LaRue sadly passed away on Tuesday at the ripe old pug age of 11. Mimi died less than a week after Tori and husband Dean celebrated the birth of their new daughter.
Spelling tells People.com, “She was a star and a true lady, and she will be missed greatly. People everywhere knew her by name. I loved when fans wanted her over me. I felt proud.”

The actress reveals the pug had battled medical problems for years, and she says she believes the pooch waited until she had given birth to Stella on June 9, before dying. Spelling adds, “I’m devastated. I’m convinced she waited around to make sure I had the daughter I always dreamt about before she left us.”
Obviously we’re big pug fans here at Trashy Celebs with our own pug Muriel serving as the occasional guest columnist. But we’re happy to hear that Mimi went peacefully at home surrounded by her family. We can tell from all the pictures of Tori doting on her that she lived a good life, with minimal amounts of peeing on new rugs. Yes Muriel, we’re talking to you. Not that peeing on our new rug makes us love you any less but really, can’t you do it on the crunked up rug in the basement?
Anyway, goodnight sweet Mimi, you’ll be missed.
