Eclipse, gained notoriety for riding Seattle’s red bus alone, is seen riding the bus in October, 2021.

Eclipse, a dog who gained notoriety for riding Seattle’s city bus alone, died in her sleep on Friday, according to her owner-run Facebook account. She was 10 years old.

The big red bus with three doors had been a fixture of Eclipse's daily routine for years, owner Jeff Young told USA TODAY. Several green and yellow buses stopped right outside of Young's apartment, but Eclipse knew to take the red one to the dog park in Belltown because she had done it "a million times," Young said. He adopted Eclipse when she was just 10 weeks old.

In 2015, the black lab-bullmastiff mix dog began commuting without Young two to three times a week after sneaking on the bus alone while Young was smoking a cigarette. Eclipse knew exactly where to get off the bus by looking out the window, Young said. Eclipse would hop off the bus and "fly" straight to the dog park about a block and a half away.

"She would break off whatever conversation she was having or whatever interaction, jump down, go to the back door and start banging on the glass," Young said. And since that first solo ride in 2015, Young had to keep a closer eye on Eclipse. "The celebrity kind of got out of hand," Young said.

Young said Eclipse has been his "best friend" for the last 11 years.

"Missing her doesn't even cover it," he said.

Storytime

There was a beautiful, tiny Princess, Raquel, who met a tall, handsome Grandhunk-Prince, Jordan, and they liked each other a lot, right away a lot! She had a birthday on Sunday, April 28, 2024 and so there was a big day planned. As always, church Sunday morning, then bunch with family and friends. Then late afternoon they went to the Princess's castle up on a hill for a birthday celebration.

As the sun set, her handsome Grandhunk-Prince got down on one knee and asked if she would marry him? She nodded yes, then screamed in joy, and tears rolled down her face in between kisses and more but littler screams of joy. The Grandhunk-Prince, Jordan looked at her with such love and laughter at her screams.

All this while Superman, WonderWoman, the other two Grandhunks, and the Princess's great family all watched with laughs and tears. One big beautiful family.

Happy Birthday, Princess Raquel!
