Family of famous actor refuse to honor his final request to put his dog to sleep.

The news of Alain Delon's passing has been met with mixed emotions, as his family recently announced that they will not be fulfilling his final wish. The legendary French actor had expressed his desire to be buried alongside his beloved dog, Loubo, who had been his faithful companion for ten years. However, after facing backlash from animal rights groups, Delon's daughter has made the decision to keep Loubo alive and living with the family.

Delon, who had a deep love for animals and had sheltered 55 dogs throughout his lifetime, had originally requested for Loubo to be put to sleep and laid to rest beside him. This sparked controversy and criticism from animal rights groups, who argued that the life of an animal should not be dependent on that of a human. The French animal protection charity, Fondation Brigette Bardot, shared that Loubo will not be euthanised and will continue to have a loving home with the family.

Many people had reached out to the charity, expressing their concern for Loubo's future. In response, the charity reassured everyone that the dog is in good hands and will not be put down. The SPA, France's equivalent of the RSPCA, had also offered to rehome Loubo, but the family has decided to keep him with them. The group emphasized that the dog's well-being should not be compromised, and they are willing to find him a new loving family if needed.

In France, there is no law that prohibits owners from euthanising their pets. However, it is ultimately up to the veterinarians whether they choose to carry out such requests. Delon had previously shared his love for Loubo, describing him as his "end of life dog" and that he loves him like a child. He had even expressed his wish for them to be taken away together if he were to pass before Loubo.

An animal lover, Delon had established a chapel in a cemetery on his property to hold the remains of at least 35 of his beloved dogs. This further shows his deep love and bond with his furry companions. As the world mourns the loss of the French film legend, his family and Loubo will continue to remember and honor his legacy as a devoted animal lover.
