Andy Murray has shared a heartbreaking family update, and has received hundreds of messages of support following his tribute.

The recently retired tennis great posted a photo of his family’s beloved dog along with the devastating news that he had passed over to doggy heaven. Writing on Instagram, alongside of a photo of the family’s dog, Andy shared: “You were the most loyal and protective companion our family could have wished for. You were so patient and gentle with the kids and we all learned so much from you.”

Andy continued: “The house feels empty without you in it. The noise you made when you wanted a plate to lick or a biscuit to chew on or when you wanted anything for that matter was infuriating at times! but today we would do anything to hear it again [heartbroken emoji] love you ruzz rest easy poppet.”

There was plenty of sympathy for Andy and his family among the comments on his post. One person commiserated with the tennis star, writing: “The worst part of owning a pet is the final goodbye.” Another agreed, adding: “The saddest thing in life is losing a sweet loyal friend.” A third reacted to the heartbreaking news, commenting: “Thinking of you! Nothing beats the love of a border terrier. They are the best. So sorry for your loss”.

Andy has previously spoken about the impact that his dogs have had on him during his tennis career. In 2021, he spoke to PetsPyjamas and said they were his biggest supporters, no matter what the result was on the court. Andy said: “Sometimes I find it hard to unwind after a match or if I’ve have a particularly tough training day, but I love taking them for walks or throwing a ball for them in the garden, or even just sitting with them on the sofa – I find that it helps me relax.”
