He was truly loved, and we know how many of you loved him too," she wrote on Instagram. Giggy went practically everywhere with Lisa and was known for his bedazzled outfits and happy demeanor.
Despite the loss, Lisa revealed Giggy's death inspired her and her husband Ken to create the Vanderpump Dog Foundation. "Our sweet Gigolo was such an incredible, unique dog, but mainly, because of him, we started The Vanderpump Dog Foundation and embarked on our mission to save as many dogs as possible," she wrote. "He inspired us to start our work in rescue, and for that we will always be grateful."
