Cape Town - Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas have been left reeling after their beloved dog Waldo Picasso died in a horrific hit-and-run accident.
According to TMZ, the newlyweds won’t be able to take legal action against the motorist who drove off, which isn’t a crime, after fatally striking their Alaskan Klee Kai dog.
The pair may, however, seek justice in a civil court.
Waldo Picasso, which the couple got in 2018, was being walked by a dog walker on a leash in New York when he got loose.
The dog was reportedly frightened by a pedestrian and ran into the road, People reports.
Following the mortifying loss of their pooch the upset couple have consulted a therapist, Cosmopolitan revealed.
On social media, their fans took to the comment section to pay their respects.
"My heart aches for you," one person wrote on Instagram.
"We also had a Klee Kai in NYC and the very same thing happened to us," another person said.
