Mickey Rourke and Loki

January 12th, 2009 by Bella | Filed under Dog News, Famous Dogs

When accepting the Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture-Drama at the Golden Globes for his lead role of Randy “The Ram” Robinson in The Wrestler, Mickey Rourke thanked the usual list of agent, producers, co-stars, and such…
And then his dogs, both the ones that are still living, and those that are no longer with him.

Sometimes when you’re alone, all you got is your dog and they meant the world to me.
–Mickey Rourke, during his acceptance speech for Best Actor at the Golden Globes.

Rourke, who owns seven small dogs, chihuahua and chihuahua/terrier mixes, was seen carrying his dog on the Red Carpet at the Venice Film Festival last year. He brought his 16 year-old Chihuahua terrier mix, Loki to the event.

“My dog is very old, she is 16 and she is not going to be around for long so I want to spend every moment with her,” he told Reuters.
