In a touching Instagram post, “Late Night” host Seth Meyers shared the passing of his beloved Italian greyhound, Frisbee.
The comedian shared a carousel of photos on Aug. 19 of the family dog, including photos of the pet as a puppy, a family Thanksgiving photo shoot with one of Meyers’ children, and Frisbee soaking in the sun on a boat.
“RIP to Frisbee, our OG IG who I was happy to go grey with,” he wrote.
“She was at her best curled in your lap and patient when we dressed her up like a pilgrim. Thanks for 14 amazing years, girl,” he added.
Many of Meyers’ friends and colleagues came together in the comments, sending their farewells to Frisbee.
“Frisbee forever,” fellow “Saturday Night Live” alum Amy Poehler’s podcast “Good Hang with Amy Poehler” commented with a frisbee emoji.
“Oh Seth!! Darlingest of the darling dogs. Sending you all my love,” actor Sarah Paulson said.
“Noooo! Frisbeeee! sorry for your loss,” “SNL” colleague Rachel Dratch commented with a heart emoji.
Frisbee made appearances on TV over the years, including with Meyers’ wife, Alexi Ashe, on Meyers’ late-night show in 2015 as part of a show dog segment in which his dog was compared to a professional show dog of the same breed.
“Frisbee, do not blow this for me,” Meyers said in the segment, hoping that Frisbee would impress the crowd.
Additionally, Meyers was confronted in 2015 by Olivia Munn on his show about his “weird” love for Frisbee. She revealed that Meyers allowed Frisbee to sit in his lap for meals at restaurants, kiss him on the mouth and even poop on a bed.
“I think all of this is very normal,” Meyers said, defending Frisbee as the crowd laughed.
Most notably, Frisbee was known for her ongoing feud with Meyers’ longtime friend Andy Samberg.
The comedians discussed the feud on Meyers’ show in 2020, and Frisbee made a surprise appearance, unable to even face Samberg during the video chat.
“Look how much she hates you. She hates you so much,” Meyers said with a laugh.
“Frisbee, I just want to say, it’s all in good fun, you’re a good dog,” Samberg said as he displayed a sticky note that revealed his true feelings: “Frisbee sucks.”
