The entertainment and pet communities mourn the sudden loss of an icon in both fields.
Australian comedian and renowned dog behaviourist Tony Knight passed away at the age of 54 after a tragic accident in France.
Knight had been in France for a few days when the tragedy struck, leaving his loved ones and fans in disbelief.
According to family friend Joanne Allen, Knight was 'fit, healthy, and happy' while having the time of his life at the Rock&Cars festival in Lavaur.
'We are beyond devastated that his life was taken by a freak accident…an accident that we are all still trying to comprehend,' she wrote in a statement.
According to reports, Knight was standing under a tree when a branch suddenly struck him, which led to fatal injuries.
Known for his infectious charisma and humour, Knight was a figure who brought joy and laughter to many.
His live comedy show, Mad Dogs and an Englishman made an impact as he performed across Australia and abroad.
Yet it was not just his comedic talent that made him an influential figure.
Knight was deeply passionate about dogs and dedicated his life to helping people understand and communicate with their canine companions.
His innovative approach to dog behaviour won him respect and admiration worldwide.
Knight offered his expertise through in-person and online classes, radio and television appearances, and a series of e-books.
His methods were effective, as they stemmed from love and his desire to improve people's relationships with their pets.
His legacy in the pet community will live on through countless dog owners and animals whose lives were made better thanks to his guidance.
Allen put up a GoFundMe page to help Knight's surviving partner with medical and funeral expenses.
The loss of such a vibrant and caring soul has left a void in the hearts of many, and his untimely death is a stark reminder of how unpredictable life can be.
Tony Knight was more than just a comedian or a dog behaviouralist; he was a friend, a mentor, and a source of unwavering positivity.
His sudden departure from this world is a poignant loss, and our thoughts go out to his family, friends, and the many lives he touched.
Knight's memory will undoubtedly continue to inspire and influence the world of comedy and dog behaviour for years to come.
May he rest in peace.
