His ears "perked up" every time she was on the screen.

Help, Carrie Fisher’s dog went to a screening of Star Wars: The Last Jedi and recognised her on the screen, and now I’m crying forever.

The beloved late actress was well known for her close and loving relationship with Gary, who was originally her therapy dog. Gary would accompany Fisher to interviews, screenings and movie premieres, and soon built up a huge social media following, because the two were extremely adorable together.

Gary now lives with Fisher’s former assistant, who recently took him to a screening of his mummy’s final film. According to reports, Gary visibly perked up every time Fisher came onto the screen in her role as General Leia.

As if that wasn’t cute/devastating enough, he was also dressed as an X-Wing pilot. Honestly.

The late @carrieffisher's dog Gary just watched #TheLastJedi! He sat on Fisher's former assistant's lap during the film. She said his ears perked up every time she was on screen ❤️@starwars @ABC7 pic.twitter.com/2rCCGIi6Al — Veronica Miracle (@ABC7Veronica) December 15, 2017

Gary was apparently such a staple on the set of The Last Jedi that director Rian Johnson even gave the French Bulldog a cameo in the film as a pet alien.

If you’ve got a dog of your own, please hug them now, because this is extremely sad.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is in cinemas now.
