Audio By Carbonatix

Miranda Lambert is mourning the loss of her golden retriever Waylon, who passed away Friday.

“Today I lost one of my best friends. My old pal Waylon," she writes next to some photos of the swet dog. "I found him and his sister on the side of the road in Oklahoma in January 2008. They were abandoned , starving and freezing nearly to death."

Miranda says when she was brought both dogs to the vet they didn’t expect Waylon to make it because he was malnourished and dehydrated. But, she writes, “For almost 13 years. He was a rock in our family and always held down the fort. He lived his life with no fences. The way we all want to live.” 

Miranda shares, “I’m so thankful for the time we had with him and I’m thankful for the rest of the time we have with his sister Jessi. Im so glad my husband @brendanjmcloughlin got to know him in his final years.💙,” adding, “We are heartbroken but happy that he is running across the rainbow bridge right now and will be waiting for us when we get there. 🌈 Check out the post below. 

• ONE MORE THING! As we told you, Miranda recently released the video for “Settling Down,” which was shot on her farm and features her husband Brendan McLoughlin. Miranda says she came up with th concept for the clip, noting, “because of the lyrics of the song, I wanted to shoot something at my home, my farm, preferably with my husband,” adding, “I just feel like it was very intimate and kind of set up the lyrics." She notes, “It was shot at my happy place with my happy person, so it was a really good day.
