TV star Jesse Tyler Ferguson is mourning the loss of his beloved 15-year-old dog named Leaf. His Yorkie recently passed away.
Appearing on the Dinner's On Me podcast, the Modern Family star mourned the loss of the dog. He explained, "We have thought this might be the case for a while. I'm leaving town [at] the end of the week to do a play in New York, and I was having such anxiety about being away when it might have to happen."

Ferguson also said, "This morning, knowing that this afternoon we were going to put Leaf down, we told Beckett, our 5 and a half year old, because [...] he lost my mom when we lost my mom a little over a year ago, so he was able to process what it means when someone is no longer here."
It was difficult to tell his children about losing the dog.
He added, "My younger one, who's 3, doesn't really understand yet. But you know, we told Beckett and he was able to say goodbye and he got very emotional."
It was very difficult for them to say goodbye. It's not something any pet owner wants to have to face.
