Jason and Kylie Kelce, as well as their three young daughters, are mourning the death of their beloved pet dog.

“When I told the girls that Baloo was going to leave us, Ellie asked where he was going,” Kylie, 32, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, March 22. “I told her that he was going to heaven and without skipping a beat she replied, ‘Oh! He’ll get to be with Winnie again! They’ll be so happy to see each other!’”

Jason, 37, and Kylie have been married since 2018 and share daughters Wyatt, 5, Ellie, 3, and Bennett, 2, and are currently expecting again. The Kelces’ other family dog, Winnie, died last year.

“We were lucky enough to have 7 years with the goofiest, sweetest, most lovable, and tolerant dog I’ve ever met,” Kylie added on Saturday. “He wanted nothing more than carbs and pets. He was a simple guy, held together by bubble gum and paper clips.”

She continued, “The heartbreak is immense, but as Ellie so perfectly pointed out, the Winnie-Bubba reunion had to be pure magic. Miss you already Bubbies.”

Jason and Kylie had adopted both of their Irish Wolfhounds before welcoming Wyatt. On a February appearance on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, Kylie joked that her firstborn considered Winnie to be more like an older sibling.

“We were talking about me carrying a baby right now and she was like, ‘Well, you had a baby before me,’” Kylie recalled to podcaster Alex Cooper, referring to her latest pregnancy. “I was like, ‘Excuse me?’ She was like, ‘Winnie,’ because I’ve called Winnie my firstborn child so many times that my  oldest daughter thinks that I carried the Irish Wolfhound in my womb.”

Kylie had announced via Instagram in March 2024 that Winnie had died.

“When I was in high school I had a folder on my desktop labeled ‘Gods gift to earth.’ It was images of Irish Wolfhounds that I had collected from Google. I had fallen in love with the breed when I was a young and never let my fascination with them fade,” Kylie wrote via Instagram at the time. “It all led me to Winnie and holy shit did she live up to the hype. She was everything I had hoped for in a wolfie and more.”

Kylie Kelce shared her favorite memories with her dog Winnie while mourning the loss of her beloved pet. “When I was in high school I had a folder on my desktop labeled ‘Gods gift to earth’. It was images of Irish Wolfhouds [sic] that I had collected from Google,” she wrote via Instagram on Thursday, […]

She concluded, “I lost part of my soul today, but I know she is at peace. I love you, Winn. You will always be my firstborn child.”

While Jason has not publicly addressed the deaths of either canine, he’s been known to give shout-outs to the dogs on his and brother Travis Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast through the years.

“Oh, man, dogs are going crazy,” he said during a September 2024 episode when Baloo’s barking interrupted an episode. “I think that must mean Ky is back with the kids.”

He then yelled out to the dog directly, “Baloo! Bubba! Come on.”
