The Las Vegas magician has confirmed to TMZ that Mr. Piffles, the Chihuahua who was Piff the Magic Dragon’s longtime performance partner and a much-loved member of the family, has passed away.
The former contestant on “America’s Got Talent” has informed us that his cherished canine conjuror went suddenly shortly before his seventeenth birthday. Piff attributes the success of his show to the rescue dog, who was responsible for making it so memorable.
He continues by saying, “Over the course of more than fifteen years, I have had the honor and the pleasure of being outshone and upstaged night after night by Mr. Piffles of all time.” When I was at my lowest point in life, he came into my life and put me on the road to a job that I had only ever dreamed of having. It is possible that I was the one who saved him in the beginning, but in the end, it was he who saved me.
Piff and Mr. Piffles have been a fan favorite for than a decade at the Flamingo Las Vegas, and in the aftermath of the unfortunate news, the Flamingo Las Vegas has revealed that they want to hold a special ceremony in honor of the dog that passed away.
During the event, which will take place on Wednesday evening, the illustrious resort will reveal the Mr. Piffles Magical Playground, which is a facility that is dog-friendly and is devoted to the Chihuahua.
The last performance of Mr. Piffles was scheduled to take place today, which is also his seventeenth birthday.
Piff and his devoted friend were introduced to the public for the first time when they made an appearance on the tenth season of “America’s Got Talent.” During that performance, Piff bragged that Mr. Piffles was the only Chihuahua in the world who could do magic.
Even though Piff and Mr. Piffles did not end up winning the grand prize, they did end up in the top 10 of the competition, which ultimately led to their phenomenally successful residency in Las Vegas.
