Louise Redknapp has shared her heartache at the passing of her beloved rescue dog Corky.

The 45-year-old singer posted an emotional tribute to her four-legged companion on Instagram, as she came to terms of the loss of the family’s pet.

Louise had adopted the then two-year-old Jura Hound in 2016, after she found the dog needing a home from Cyprus through London foundation Wild At Heart.

The charity helps re-home stray dogs from around the world and Louise was taken by Corky and brought him into the family home.

Louise posted photos of her cuddling Corky on Instagram and shared her heartache with her followers.
