Eddie has left the building

You have to admit, Eddie was right up there with Snoopy and Lassie. Before he became a TV star, Moose (his real name) was chasing horses and killing the neighbour's cat, and his owners had given up on him. Then, a trainer rescued him from the dog pound, and the rest is history. His incredible charisma and free spirit eventually won out, landing him a part on Frasier. He received more fan mail than any of his human counterparts during the height of the show's popularity.

Marty Crane, who played Kelsey Grammer's sitcom father, announced that his pet's full name was Eddie Spaghetti. "Because he has worms," he said. It was sad news to read that this little terrier (aka "terror") had died today. Eddie has left the building.
