Uggie – 2002-2015<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Uggie, the Jack Russell terrier famous for appearances in Water For Elephants<\/em>, and the modern silent film The Artist<\/em>, has died.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Uggie was an adopted dog trained to perform in Hollywood productions – his early appearances in commercials and minor television roles, before he struck it big time in his mainstream cinematic work for Water For Elephants<\/em>, alongside Robert Pattinson. Other work included appearing in a live dog show that toured the United States in 2010.<\/p>\n

Uggie’s most prominent work came with the silent film The Artist<\/em>, in 2011. The film would go on to win the Best Picture Oscar, and garner Uggie himself a number of awards, including the Prix Lumiere for Special Mention, The Palm Dog Award at Cannes, and having his paw-prints on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.<\/p>\n

In 2012, Uggie was named as a spokesdog for Nike (I’m not making this up, I swear) and appeared in media formats such as The Graham Norton Show<\/em>, and W<\/em> Magazine.<\/p>\n

Uggie was euthanized following a long battle with prostate tumor, on August 12th. He was 12 human years old.<\/p>\n
