Actor requested his healthy dog to be put down to be buried with him
This request sparked outrage among animal rights activists and organizations.
Alain Delon, the legendary French actor, stirred significant controversy with his final request regarding his beloved dog, Loubo, a 10-year-old Belgian Malinois.
Delon, who passed away on August 18, 2024, had expressed his wish for Loubo to be euthanized and buried alongside him upon his death.
Delon had a deep bond with Loubo, referring to him as his “end-of-life dog,” and even mentioned in a 2018 interview that he would prefer for the dog to be put to sleep in his arms rather than suffer alone after his passing.
However, this request sparked outrage, particularly among animal rights activists and organizations like the Society for the Protection of Animals (SPA) and the Brigitte Bardot Foundation.
France’s oldest animal protection organization, La SPA, posted on Twitter on August 19, stating:
“The SPA wanted to pay tribute to Alain Delon, animal lover and defender of the cause. Before his death, he had expressed the wish to euthanize his dog Lobo. However, the life of an animal should not be conditioned by that of a human. The SPA is volunteering to take in his dog and find him a family.”
These groups argued that the life of an animal should not be conditional on that of a human. Following this backlash, Delon’s family, particularly his daughter Anouchka, decided not to fulfil his wish.
Anouchka confirmed that Loubo would remain with the family and would not be euthanized.
Alain Delon had created a cemetery on his estate for his many dogs, indicating his lifelong devotion to them, but his final request for Loubo was ultimately denied by his family out of respect for the animal’s well-being and public sentiment.
