Gabriel and Caswell's miniature schnauzer Winston died in July this year. The pup had an incurable issue with his stomach and needed to be put down.

Gabriel had previously posted a heartfelt post for Winston on his Instagram after his dog's death.

"Rest in peace to our sweet Winston. You brought more love and joy into our lives than we could’ve ever imagined. You will forever be our son and we will miss you endlessly," Gabriel wrote.

Dillon Gabriel spoke about heartbreak of losing his dog Winston at Oregon's Big Ten Media Day

During Oregon's Big Ten Media Day on July 25, Gabriel said he was heartbroken about losing his dog.

“I’m good,” Gabriel said. “Heartbroken, sorry. It can be a lonely world at times. I think the sport we play in, you kind of navigate a lot with all we go through. Just having someone that understands you, it’s powerful.”

Despite losing his pet in the offseason, Gabriel has been excellent for the top-ranked Oregon Ducks in the 2024 season.
