Gidget The Taco Bell Dog Dies

Well, folks, today is the day that the Taco Bell Dog Dies (Estoy Muerto!). That’s right, I guess she’ll never get to experience what a Taco tastes like.

After a good run in showbiz, Gidget the Taco Bell Dog has died of a stroke at the age of 15. Hey, 105 doggie years ain’t bad!

Here’s a video of Gidget the Taco Bell Dog doing her famous Taco Bell gig:

Not only did she draw national attention with her Taco Bell commercials, but figurines and stuffed animals in her likeness can still be found all over the place. I have even seen t-shirts with photos and pictures of her on the front.

Aside from uttering “Yo Quiero Taco Bell,” in the commercials, Gidget also made appearances on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, and Legally Blonde 2.

The dog’s trainer, Sue Chipperton, says she lived a relaxing lifestyle once retired, which included basking in the sun. Then suddenly, she started making unhealthy noises and that’s when she suffered her stroke. Pobrecita!

While it’s upsetting to hear that the headline “Taco Bell Dog Dies,” just remember that all dogs go to heaven (I know my big lab-mix, and my Golden Retriever are up there just waiting to meet a celeb dog like Gidget).
