Julianne Hough reveals accident that led to the death of dogs

“I had asked for a separation,” Julianne recalled tearfully. “And then ten days later my dogs were killed by coyotes.”

She revealed: “I felt so… out of place. I'm in the middle of starting this company that helps people connect with themselves and live their freest selves, and my assistant and I are splitting up, my ex and I, or, well, my then-husband, I'm asking for a split because something isn't working. My dogs, who represented unconditional love and security – gone. I'm thinking, 'What am I doing here? I'm blowing up my life.'”

In September 2023, a new dog named Sunny came into Julianne's life! She recently celebrated Sunny's first birthday on July 6, 2024, with an adorable Instagram video showing a sweet montage of their moments together.

In the caption, Julianne wrote, “Sunny, you have brought so much love and literally sunshine into my life. I can't remember a time without you.”

“Lexi and Harley would have loved you and played with you every day, and I know they sent you to me only when I was ready to open my heart and love again,” Julianne added. “You opened my heart up, darling. Thank you.”
