LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: HGTV star Jonathan Scott recently shared the heartbreaking news of his beloved fur baby Gracie's death on social media. On January 13, 2024, the 'Property Brothers' alum, a devoted dog lover, took to his Instagram to share this somber news with fans worldwide. In a heartfelt post, he expressed profound sorrow and grief over the loss of his loyal and cherished canine companion.

"I’m heartbroken. My sweet Gracie passed away last night. What a wonderful 17 years you gave me. You’re always in my heart," he wrote in the caption of the Instagram post. While Jonathan mourns the loss of his beloved dog, he also finds solace in the love and support he has received from the netizens, who have offered their sympathies and shared their own stories of loss and grief. 

One social media user wrote, "Im so sorry Jonathan. Sending love."

A user went on to say, "Worst feeling in the world."

 How many dogs does HGTV star Jonathan Scott have?

Jonathan deeply adores his dogs, Gracie and Stewie. Their presence extends beyond his Instagram feed, they are also prominently featured in his personal style, evidenced by his choice to wear a shirt adorned with their adorable faces. Despite Jonathan's tall stature, his selection of such tiny canines as beloved companions may surprise some. However, there is a rationale behind this choice. 

In a conversation with Modern Dog Magazine, Scott explained, “I grew up on a ranch. We always had big dogs. Labs and even a 200-pound Rottie. However, with my lifestyle, you need to have a dog you can take with you. So my first dog was a Yorkie. His name was Gizmo and he was only 2.5 pounds. Unfortunately, he was fragile, and he passed away."

The 'Property Brothers: Forever Home' star continued, "But, before he died, he totally opened me up to small dogs. He was one of the smartest dogs I’ve ever met. Shortly after Gizmo, I got Gracie. I like having two dogs, it lets them bond." Jonathan further added, "Then, I got Stewie. I brought Gracie with me to check out our options, and she wouldn’t socialize with anyone but Stewie. They were instantly inseparable.”
