Olympian Gus Kenworthy Mourns Beloved Dog Beemo

Olympian Gus Kenworthy Mourns Beloved Dog Beemo

The out skiier said goodbye to the beloved dog he rescued from a meat farm in South Korea.

U.S. freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy wrote a gut-wrenching goodbye Sunday to a dog he adopted from a South Korean meat farm during the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang. Beemo, Kenworthy's jindo-husky mix, had lost her appetite, and a subsequent trip to the veterinarian revealed a heart defect, the Olympian said. The dog was put on a respirator but eventually died. He wrote on Instagram: "Beemo was truly the best thing that ever happened to me and I feel so fortunate for our borrowed time together."
