Daryl Dixon's Dog From "THE WALKING DEAD" Has Passed Away - "Best TV Buddy Ever" Says Norman Reedus

 

We sometimes don’t realize how many animal actors there are in Hollywood that make an impact on us as the audience. The real-life canine who portrayed Daryl Dixon’s (Norman Reedus) pet “Dog” has passed away. The pup was a Belgian Shepherd whose real name was Seven.

Variety notes that Seven “appeared in 26 episodes, including the series finale.”

That’s a good amount of TV time and we remember “Dog” fondly when we watched the show. Norman Reedus has shared a handful of behind the scenes photos to his Instagram (@bigbaldhead), paying tribute to the canine companion that he calls the “best TV buddy ever.”

Seven’s stint on “The Walking Dead” began in Season 9, originally the pet of the character Leah Shaw. In the wake of the character’s disappearance, Daryl adopts the dog as his own.

Thank you for coming into our home’s, Seven, you were indeed a good boy.
