STACEY Solomon has been left heartbroken after her family dog was rushed to vets for urgent surgery.
Presenter Stacey, 35, told fans rescue pooch Teddy, who fell suddenly ill on Thursday, may not survive the operation, with the next few days being critical to his recovery.
Sharing a tender photo of herself kissing Teddy’s head, Stacey wrote on Instagram: “Our darling Teddy. Teddy became suddenly unwell on Thursday.
“It turns out he has a predisposed condition we had no idea about as he was a rescue.
“He has been operated on by incredible vets and the next 3-4 days are crucial for him to get through, even then, he might not ever fully recover.
“We are praying and hoping so hard that he pulls through & that we can care for him in the best way we possibly can to give him the best life he can have.
“We are all truly devastated. He is the sweetest, most protective, loving dog. He’s our family.
“And far too young to be going through this. We love you Ted. So so much. Pickle cottage is far too quiet without you. I miss my toilet buddy. Peanut is so sad without his best friend.”
The post’s comments section was filled with love and support from Stacey’s friends.
Ruth Langsford commented: “So sorry to hear this Stacey Sending all the positive thoughts I have for Teddy. Love to you all.”
Shona McGarty added: “Oh Stace. I’m sorry. Theres not a more horrible feeling. Sending love to you all and of course little Ted x

Bobby Norris said: “Aww so sorry Stace.. sending love,” while Alex Jones penned: “Sending so much love and thinking of you all.”

The couple live at their Essex home, affectionately called Pickle Cottage, along with their beloved pets including dogs Teddy and Peanut, and their cat Princess.
They currently have their own fly-on-the-wall BBC reality series, titled Stacey and Joe.
Viewers have already seen the ex EastEnders actor break down in a candid chat with his wife while discussing the challenges he’s faced with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).
Stacey previously confessed viewers would see “domestics” between her and Joe.
And this proved to be true, as the pair were seen clashing on screen over parenting issues.
