Add one more to Mickey Rourke’s pack of heavenly canine companions.

The Oscar nominee’s Chihuahua, Loki, one of the dogs memorably thanked by Rourke in his Golden Globe acceptance speech, has died, Rourke’s rep confirmed Tuesday to E! News.

Loki passed away Monday night at the ripe old age of 18. The pup was prominently photographed walking the red carpet with his master, who called Loki the “love of [his] life,” at the Venice Film Festival in September.

“I’d like to thank all my dogs, the ones who are here and the ones who aren’t here anymore,” The Wrestler star said when accepting his Globe for Best Actor last month.

“Sometimes, when a man is alone, that’s all you got is your dog. And they’ve meant the world to me.”

Is it weird that I think Mickey Rourke looked better in The Wrestler?  He was a hot mess in that movie, but it’s far better than this big ol’ mess!!  Here he is shopping with his fabulous friends in Paris.

There have been inaccurate reports recently that link Evan to her co-star in The Wrestler, actor Mickey Rourke. The latest rumor is that they locked lips at the SAG awards ceremony a few nights ago. She has been so distraught by these rumors, and the attention they have taken away from the brilliant movie, that she asked us to pass along this message.

“I’m upset because I feel disrespected by the press and by Mr. Rourke,” she told us. “Just because I’m single doesn’t mean that you can take advantage of me. It’s unfair that the performances might suffer because of all of these distractions.” And regarding her alleged affair with Mr. Rourke, Wood says, “I’m not attracted to him, he’s too old for me. Nothing ever happened and nothing ever will.”
