RIP Joel Embiid’s Dog

Some sad news in the canine world.
Joel Embiid’s dog, “Klaus Hinkie De Paula Embiid,” passed away following what appears to be a freak elevator accident. Kyle Neubeck at Voice pulled the Instagram stills from Anne De Paula’s account:

Internal bleeding after the elevator door closed on him? Man that’s horrible. Klaus was a golden-doodle who was a little less than two years old and had 14,900 Instagram followers.
Rest in peace, Klaus Hinkie.
