60. P.G. Wodehouse's Dachshund Bertie


In the last days of P.G. Wodehouse's life, he and his dachshund Bertie were inseparable. Bertie died from natural causes shortly after Wodehouse's death, as often happens. It is believed that Wodehouse's character Bertie Wooster (manservant Jeeves’ boss) was named after his dog.
