Oh, Tiger... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

The dog that played Tiger was hit by a car and killed early in the first season. When a replacement dog proved problematic, the producers decided the dog would only appear when essential to the plot. Tiger appeared in about half the episodes in the first season and about half a dozen episodes in the second season. His last appearance was in "What Goes Up," which aired in 1971. Eventually, the dog was phased out altogether. According to Barry Williams, the doghouse remained because it was needed to cover holes caused by a falling stage light in the artificial backyard. The premiere also had the first and last appearances of the Brady's other pet, "Fluffy" the cat, who belonged to the Brady girls.

Sad though that the kids would have to be told that their "ficticious dog" is dead

Interesting, Fluffy is never even brought up again (to my knowledge) even in conversation... ah, the magic of televison
