My sweet Ruby has crossed the \ud83c\udf08 bridge \ud83d\ude2d,\u201d Cuoco, 40, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, April 19. \u201cI\u2019ve had her for so many years that I\u2019ve truly lost count. We have been through SO much together, and through everything, she has remained the exact same: the sweetest little angel snowball. Everyone loved her!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She continued, \u201cI was doing a TV segment at the east valley shelter a very long time ago. She was the dog they had me hold. I went home that night and couldn\u2019t get her out of my mind, so I went back the next day and adopted her \u2665\ufe0f best decision I ever made. The more pets we have, the more we go through this familiar pain, but it\u2019s an honor to give these dogs the best life possible because that\u2019s all that matters \ud83d\udc9c\ud83d\udc96.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alongside the message, Cuoco shared a series of photos of her with Ruby through the years \u2014 including one of Pelphrey, 43, holding the pup.

Ruby aka \u2018Snowball\u2019 aka \u2018Ruby from the Block\u2019 was as angelic in temperament as appearance \u2014 however she did not suffer fools gladly and punched well above her weight class.
