Mickey Rourke leaves Nellos restaurant with his dog Loki on February 12, 2009 in New York City.Us Magazine
The Academy Award nominee's dog, Loki, has died, his rep confirmed Tuesday to E! News.
The Chihuahua, who Rourke memorably thanked in his Golden Globe acceptance speech, passed away Monday night.
See the stars at the Golden Globes.
"I'd like to thank all my dogs, the ones who are here and the ones who aren't here anymore," The Wrestler star said when accepting his Globe for Best Actor last month. "Sometimes, when a man is alone, that's all you got is your dog. And they've meant the world to me."
Rourke told Usmagazine.com that his prized pooch wasn't doing well last week.

"[Loki]'s a bit poorly," he told Us at the BAFTA Awards in London on Feb. 8. "I'll see her in a few days. She'll be all right. Say a prayer for her."
The dog, who was 18 years old when she died, often got to walk the red carpet with his master, who called Loki the "love of [his] life."

karenI am not a Mickey Rourke fan but I feel sad for anyone who loses a pet. 18 years is a long time and he must have taken exceptional care of that little one. I lost my Yorkiepoo who was 18 and it is really traumatic when they have been with you for so long. Good luck Mickey anyone who loves animals is ok in my book.report abuseposted February 20, 2009 10:54 AM PST
