"Yo Quiero Taco Bell" - What happened to the Taco Bell Dog?
They say:
Gidget met her demise by having a piece of equipment fall on her during a filming of a commercial

Taco Bell has not had many mascots during its run. In 1995, they introduced two mascots to promote the Taco Bell kids meal, Nacho and Dog. Nacho is a crazy cat who gets all his knowledge of the world by watching TV and is obsessed with Mexican food. Dog is a dog who is more well-behaved than Nacho and gets all his knowledge of the world by reading books. They were dropped in mid-1997.
In September 1997, the Taco Bell chihuahua was introduced. He spoke the line in commercials for their wildly popular "Yo quiero Taco Bell" campaign. In the Spanish language, yo quiero means I want . The little dog's real name was "Gidget", but that was never publicized in the ad campaign. The character was voiced by comedian Carlos Alazraqui. By 1998, the Taco Bell chihuahua was known as the biggest commercial star on the planet, but his popularity had dropped significantly by 2000. As of the early 2000s, Taco Bell has gone away from the chihuahua and instead has promoted its value menu through "I'm Full!!" commercials and used "Think outside the bun" as its slogan. Gidget did, however, make a cameo in a 2002 Geico commercial where he met Geico's spokes-gecko. That commercial continued to air through 2004

The Taco Bell dog moved to a small town in Arizona with his new wife, a lovely toy poodle. They are busy making Chihua-poos.

Paris Hilton decided that Chihuahuas were not cool, so the pooch got the boot.
Btw... the Saying is "Yo Quiero Taco Bell"

I read an article some time ago that said that the ads featuring the dog were well received and well liked, but that they did not translate into increased sales; as a result, Taco Bell ended that advertising campaign.
