Boski showed an immense amount of love for the little girl as he stuck out his tongue to lick her face. She captioned the post:

"A year ago today was one of the worst days of my life...I'm still missing you...I'm still speechless...I'm still in disbelief...I still feel you...I still love you so much."

Furthermore, Taylor tagged Boski as "Her first baby and son" and related that he left a month before meeting his new baby sister. According to Taylor, the dog was so excited to meet her daughter and never left her side.

Finally, the Grammy award-winning singer made it known that her family was broken and incomplete without Boski. The wolf dog's death was a hard blow on the dancer, as it took her a year to bid a final farewell to Boski.

Whether Junie picks basketball, singing, modeling, or business, she always wants to give her the opportunity.

Taylor also uploads other exciting moments of her family experience, and it is pretty evident that the Shumpert family remains full of love for one another.
