LA Times:

Gidget the Chihuahua -- the canine face of the talking Taco Bell dog ad campaign (Remember "Yo Quero Taco Bell" and "Hey, Leezard!"), died from a stroke at age 15 Tuesday.

"She made so many people happy," Gidget's trainer, Sue Chipperton, tells PeoplePets.com. (http://www.peoplepets.com/news/celebrities/exclusive-taco-bell-spokesdog-gidget-dies-at-15/1)
She spoke with the mag at a photo shoot in February.
"When she's on a set, she comes alive," Chipperton said.
But at age 15, she liked her beauty sleep more and often slept 23 hours, 45 minutes a day.
"She goes on hikes with me, and she loves the sun," said Chipperton. "She'll lay outside when it's 105 degrees! I like to joke that it's like looking after a plant."



Farewell, Gid! You will never be forgotten.

seriously.. 23hr, 45mins a day!? it gets up to poop?

i didn't even know the dog was a girl. oh well, RIP.

[g-via]

aw damn, next time i won't miss...

[!Zar!]

How did they come to the conclusion that it slept for 23hrs and 45 minutes...

Even more so, dogs have strokes? haha.

That dog led to an influx of Chihuahua breeding/sales. Which in turn led to a lot being put in a shelter as well as put to sleep.

I didn't know there was only one tacobell dog.

I figured there were like a bunch of them.

Oh well.

Dog will probably turn into a "chicken" burrito .89 special now.

[meteorite_flo]

I love me some chihuahua burrito.

[theronin]

i heard that he was accused of touching puppies. just a rumor, take from it what you will.

[Cheesy Doriftos]

im still surprised it was a girl....

[!Zar!]

Taco Bell tranny.

Actually, most dogs used for things like that are female.

Easier to handle or something.

[FRpilot]

im still surprised it was a girl....

me too.. i guess we all just assumed it was a guy dog because the dubbed with a male voice.

[Redline24/7]

First Mj, Bill Mays, my grandma and now this.

I feel like I have nothing left to live for.

[allntrlundrgrnd]

They could have thrown another one of those shitty little dogs in there and no one would have noticed, at least I wouldnt have.

I dont care for dogs that are bred to be useless.

[shishcabobers]

ay curumba! show some respect.
