Actor John Stamos took to social media to remember a friend who clearly meant the world to him. 

The “Fuller House” star shared some touching words about the death of his beloved dog, Linka, along with a photo on Instagram. 

“She was always there, especially in the dark times. Never judging. By my side. Only loyal. #rip Linka,” Stamos wrote in the post he shared on Wednesday. 

Stamos, who has another dog named Frieda, seemed to have truly treasured the late pup, often sharing photos of Linka by the pool. While he didn’t speak about her much with the press, the actor noted he wanted to protect his very special relationship. 

“I have a dog that I love a lot but I don’t talk about her publicly,” he joked to Us Weekly about the pooch. “She’s very sensitive when it comes to press.”

R.I.P Linka. You will be so missed.
