In November 2022, Travis Barker, then 46, and his daughter, Alabama Barker, then 16, were said to be in mourning after they lost their beloved family French bulldog, Blue. On November 2, 2022, Blink-182's drummer and his daughter were photographed in Los Angeles as they left a veterinarian's office.

The duo looked in bad spirits as they embraced. Alabama and her father appeared to be trying to look inconspicuous with matching black hoodies that covered their heads, shorts, and sunglasses.

The teenager was seen holding dog toys as she emotionally wiped away tears as they walked together. The family dog wasn't with them, and judging from their earlier Instagram Story posts, Blue might've been put down.

The Blink-182 member also shared a close-up image of the dog all wrapped up in blankets, including a red broken heart emoticon. He also uploaded photos of him kissing and loving on the family pet.

The canine's personal Instagram account was titled under his full name, Yung Blue Dawg. In the biography, it was revealed that Blue had loved snuggling, basketball, eating, and farting!

The biography also shared how the late dog had three brothers named Woof Woof, Biggie, and Elvis, plus one daughter named Fudge. Losing Blue came after Travis commemorated the loss of his three best friends, Chris Baker, Charles "Che" Still, and Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein.

According to The Sun, the trio had passed away in a plane crash in September 2008. The singer wasn't the only one in his family who publicly mourned Blue's loss on social media.

What Did Travis Barker's Daughter Say about Their Family Puppy?

In her Instagram Story, Alabama shared a throwback picture of herself when she was much younger, posing with Blue and another family dog. She captioned the post with three red broken heart emoticons.

The other image she uploaded was of her hand petting the sleepy-looking dog while it was covered in a blanket. Alabama also included a photo of Blue staring straight at the camera when he was a puppy and wrote, "We'll miss you, Blue."

Travis' daughter was mainly broken up about the loss because the childhood pet had "slept next to [her]." In an Instagram Story video where she was seen carrying the dog while giving it gentle pets, Alabama wrote:

"I love you blue, you will never understand how much you helped me on my darkest days."

"I'll never forget you my baby, I know you'll have the most amazing time up in doggy heaven, until we meet again my love."

Kardashian's stepdaughter also shared several clips and images of the pet throughout the years. One funny clip showed the dog howling while standing outside a sliding glass door, with Alabama explaining how the canine would "scream" if she didn't let him back in immediately!
