LOS ANGELES - Jessica Simpson has had a rough year.

She was criticized for wearing what some called “mom jeans” on stage, dealt with rumors about her weight and she split with her NFL star boyfriend Tony Romo. But through it all, she had her beloved Daisy the dog to turn to — until now.

Jessica announced on Monday evening that her dog was taken by a coyote.

“My heart is broken because a coyote took my precious Daisy right in front of our eyes,” Jessica Tweeted on Monday evening. “HORROR! We are searching. Hoping. Please help!”

The Simpson family made a poster in an attempt to get their dog back with a picture of the star’s beloved malti-poo and a request to email in any information on the dog’s whereabouts.

A rep for Jessica was not immediately available for comment on the story.
