For many pet lovers, losing a furry friend can feel like losing a member of the family. That’s exactly how it felt for Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, who said goodbye to their 17-year-old dog, Chewie, earlier this year. But just when they thought the chapter had closed, they received an unexpected gift. During a special National Pet Day episode of Live with Kelly and Mark, the couple received a surprise that moved them to tears. It wasn’t a headline moment or a flashy announcement, it was an act of kindness from a friend who understood their loss. Bryce Dallas Howard gave the couple a special painting of Chewie Kelly Ripa’s dog/Instagram Actress Bryce Dallas Howard was a guest on the show that Friday, April 11. But before she left the studio, she handed Kelly and Mark a special painting she had made of Chewie. The portrait, small and sweet, perfectly captured the Shih Tzu’s face and charisma.             View this post on Instagram                         A post shared by LIVE with Kelly and Mark (@livekellyandmark)   Kelly, 54, held up the artwork for viewers to admire and smiled. “If you knew Chewie, and a lot of you did, this is Chewie,” she said.
