Bruiser’s trainer, Sue Chip, also posted a tribute to the famous pup on Instagram, writing: “On this day – a day of ‘throwbacks’ I give you one of the greatest little dogs…ʻMoonie’ of Legally Blonde fame. I’m sad to say that this morning in Los Angeles he left us. He was a whopping 18 years old. I remember the day I brought him home as a puppy.”

Is anyone else feeling like a “Legally Blonde” marathon should be in the cards this weekend? For Bruiser, obviously.
