Post A Pup Sundays: Eddie, the dog from Frasier

By


In the TV show Frasier, the adorable little dog Eddie was played by two Jack Russell Terriers: Moose and his son Enzo. Moose, who started the role, appeared from the show's beginning in 1993 until the end of its eighth season in 2000. Moose was known for his incredible training and ability to do many tricks. He was so popular that Moose even got more fan mail than the human actors, which is no surprise. The only problem is that people ran out and got Jack Russells, not realizing how independent and rambunctious they could be. They need plenty of exercise, and let's face it, not everyone is prepared to run their dog for an hour or two a day. 

Moose's incredible journey from a troubled pup to a much-loved TV star is really inspiring. Born on December 24, 1990, in Florida, Moose's first family found him way too energetic and hard to handle. That's when a trainer named Mathilde de Cagny adopted him. After only six months of training, Moose landed the role of Eddie in Frasier, where he stole the show with his comedic antics, especially his silent stares at Frasier Crane, played by Kelsey Grammer. 

After Moose retired, his son Enzo, born in July 1995, took over the role of Eddie for the rest of the series. Enzo was bred specifically as a potential replacement for Moose. He looks a lot like his dad, which helps keep the character consistent. Enzo also did more physically demanding stunts as Moose got older and became a senior canine who had captured the hearts of fans of the show. 

Moose and Enzo left a lasting impression on the show and its fans. Moose passed away in 2006 at the age of 15, and Enzo died in 2010 at the age of 14. They are dearly remembered by the fans who loved Frasier.

Can you hear this painting like I can? Hone in on a conversation; what are they discussing? There's music playing; what does it sound like? There's an aroma in the air; what does it smell like? Who is your favorite guest? What's their name? What are they wearing? The little girl at the top of the stairs - what does she think of it all? Who are her parents? How long has she been there? Why is she there? How long until she's discovered and sent back to bed? Decades have passed; does she remember this night still? BTW, looking for Peckerwood's Weekly Lunocracy Post? It's  RIGHT HERE .

OPEN POST: Take a Breath, Why Don't Ya?

Lots of holiday rigamarole commences next week, so if you can, carve out an hour or so today just for you . If you're lucky enough to have a puddytat, observe their silliness and play with them; if you have a dog, take them for a walk or to a dog park. And if you're bereft of furry creatures, take yourself for a walk, stop at a cafe, and drink a hot cup of joe or a cocoa - but without looking at your phone. Just sip, clear your mind, and do some Cyclic Breathing. Have you ever tried it? It's my favorite breathing technique: inhale deeply through your nose, follow immediately with a second breath (you can do it), hold it all in for a sec, then very slowly exhale through your mouth. Repeat several times. The slooooow exhale is what makes it so very relaxing, I promise. Cyclic Breathing is different from other breathing-type exercises because it involves a double inhalation and a long, even audible exhale.  But, hey, whatever brings you a few moments of peace today is worth do...
