Animal trainer Omar Von Muller announced that Uggie The Dog had been put to sleep after a bout of prostate cancer.
A Jack Russell terrier too frisky for his owner, Uggie was about to be sent to the pound when Von Muller decided to take him in.
He channeled Uggie's energy into acting, and, after a few bit parts, Uggie attained superstardom in the 2011 Oscar-winning film, "The Artist," stealing scene after scene from leading man Jean Dujardin.
In his most heroic moment, Uggie saves his owner from a burning house by running for help in the nick of time.
