Tis a sad sad day in the world of entertainment.
Moose the Dog, better known to people around the World as 'Eddie' from the Hit TV show Frazier, died aged 16 today.

Moose, the feisty Jack Russell terrier who played Eddie on TV's Frasier, has died, his trainer, Mathilde Halberg, tells PEOPLE.

"He was 16-and-a-half years old, and he just had an incredible charisma and was a such a free spirit," said Halberg. Moose, considered the Lassie of the '90s, died Thursday night of old age at Halberg's Los Angeles-area home.

Moose retired from showbiz when he was 10 and was replacd by a younger lookalike named Enzo for the final two seasons of Frasier.

Although he also starred in the 2000 Frankie Muniz-Kevin Bacon feature My Dog Skip (as the older Skip), he was best known for stealing scenes from Kelsey Grammer on the long-running Emmy-winning NBC sitcom.

"He was always trying to put Frasier in uncomfortable circumstances," said his trainer, who had rescued him in the early 1990s.

"I saved him from the pound. His owners called me as a last resort," Halberg recalled. "He was extremely mischievous, always escaping, chewing up things and running off. When he killed a neighbor's cat and chased some horses, that was it."

Not that anyone who owns a Jack Russell would find such behavior surprising. "But then," remembered his trainer, "he began his career, and he will never be forgotten."

Fifty bucks says he's taking down the horse that got away from him right now! Killed a cat...now that's a dog's dog!
 
I like Jack Russel terriers. I went to a Jack Russel jamboree once. It was wild. People from all over North America turned up in Winnebagos and such to bring their dogs to the jamboree for challenges. Jack Russel owners are obsessed.

Remember that other one from the movie Mask? "No keys, not cheese." Hilarity ensued. That wasn't Eddie was it?

According to Moose's IMDB it wasn't. Apparently it was a dog called Max. I though Moose (or his son Enzo) was in Son of the Mask, also apparently not.
