Pink (aka Alecia Moore) is mourning the loss of her bulldog, Elvis, after he drowned in her backyard pool. Given to her by friend Lisa Marie Presley, Pink had described the dog as being “like a child” to her. From Splash News:
“Pink went to run an errand and left Elvis in the backyard of her L.A. mansion,” said a source. “An hour later she returned and found him floating in her swimming pool. She tried to see if he could be resuscitated, but there was no luck. She was devastated.”
Pink’s publicist Michele Schweitzer said, “He’d been in the water many times before. Elvis was a member of the family and will be missed by all.”
What the fuck? I feel for Pink but what kind of stupid dog drowns in a backyard swimming pool–especially one that’s “been in the water many times before?” My dog lost its front two legs in an accident down by the old mill and it can still beat me in a 50-meter freestyle (beyond that my endurance just dominates the little fucker). The only dogs that should be drowning are the ones I send across the swollen river to retrieve the carcass of that bald eagle I just threw a rock at.
