It is often said that dogs are man’s best friend. Everyone who is a dog owner or just loves dogs acknowledge this fact. We all love dogs and they love us back ten fold. This video features James “Jimmy” Stewart who loved his dog as any other dog owner but unfortunately he lost his dog. Heartbroken Jimmy wrote a poem about his late dog and it is tear jerking.

Jimmy was not just an amazing actor and star, but he was also an incredibly down to earth person. In 1981, he was invited on “The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson” where he read his heart-touching poem about his late dog “Beau” and left everyone crying rivers. By the end, even the show host Johnny Carson was dissolved in tears.
