Freddie is dead. He was found this afternoon, at the bottom of his tank, belly up. Foul play is not suspected.
The beagle has barricaded herself in the guest room, obviously grief stricken by the loss of her life-long friend and confidante.
Freddie lived approximately 9 1/2 times longer than the normal Aqua-babies frog, a wonder of biologists everywhere, who have long wanted to discover the secret of Freddie's longevity.
Funeral services have not yet been announced by Freddie's human companion of 8 1/2 years.
