The actress and her husband, Wells Adams, lost their beloved bloodhound, Carl.

Sarah Hyland and Wells Adams faced a tough loss today, announcing that their bloodhound, Carl, passed away.

In honor of the loyal pet, Hyland posted a sweet tribute on Instagram, sharing a few special moments of their time together, which she captioned, "Our gentle giant Carl, You were our protector, our best hug giver, and the light of our lives. Thank you for being the greatest friend anyone could ask for. I’ll love you forever. You’ll always be my best big boy, dad’s best friend, and Boo’s first love. We’ll cuddle in our sleep 🌈🤍."

The first photo shows Hyland lying on a bed with Carl, who was about the same size as her. The rest of the pictures show Carl cuddling with Adams and spending time with the couple's other dog, Boo. There is also one adorable holiday family photo with Boo, Carl, Hyland, and Wells all wearing matching pajamas in front of their fireplace. 

Many of Hyland and Adams' friends were just as saddened by the news.

Lily Collins commented, "Oh no I’m sending you the most love," while Kaley Cuoco wrote emotionally, "Nooooo."

"😢 I’m so sorry you guys," wrote Kaitlyn Bristowe of The Bachelorette.

Brandi Cyrus also left a note of support, writing, "The sweetest boy! It’s not the same without the big guy greeting me at the door. He will be so missed 🖤."

Hyland's TV sister, Ariel Winter, commented, "💔Sending big hugs. So sorry for your loss💔."

But arguably the most heartfelt comment came from Adams, who said to Hyland, "He loved you most. And that made me happy."

The much-loved Carl was originally Adams' dog, but once Hyland and Adams started dating, they all became one big family. 

Adams also shared the news on Carl's Instagram page and his own, writing, "Trying to type this through tears, but it’s with a heavy heart I must tell you that @carlthebloodhound has gone to doggy heaven. Carl, you were such a good guy. A true gentle giant. You were sweet, noisy, protective, and slobbery, and boy did you give the best hugs! You were the best boy I’ve ever known."

He continued, "I hope you thought I was a good dad. We’ve been through so much and I there’s no way I would be here without you. Carlos the blooder, know that mom, dad, and boo love you forever. I hope you visit me all the time in my dreams to play tug of war. My jogs will never be the same but I’ll make sure to stop by the trees where the squirrels are in case you’re still running with me. You’ll always be my big ole hounder. I love you. 😔💕."
