Polly's death comes just months after she updated her social media followers with scary health news concerning her dog. Kelly explained to her 2.3 million followers: "At around 4:30am Erik and I woke up to find Polly hardly breathing and completely unable to move.
"We rushed her to the vet where she is currently being treated in the ICU. I was told they believe her heart stopped and they don't know why. This dog means more to me than anything in the world. She is my heart and soul. I don't think I would still be here if it was not for this dog. Please pray for her."

He just gave me a look," she said. "It was while he was working out and I just sat on the couch watching him work out [while I was] drunk, and he was doing a burpee and he turned his head to the side and just looked at me and I was like, [gasp], I go, 'OK, I'm done.'"
