Celebrities & Their Pooches

Hollywood celebrities and royalties are very much known for their active lifestyle. They're always on the go — filming, promoting films in different parts of the world, holding tours and concerts, or meeting other influential super stars. Now who would have thought that they can actually take care of dogs?

Indeed, dogs are becoming such a part of these celebrities' lives that they've become stars themselves, appearing in magazines or even in movies.

Queen Elizabeth II



All of England knows that this queen is a certified animal lover. In fact, she's an awarded equestrian. What other people may not know about is that she doesn't travel alone. Besides her husband, she's also fond of tagging along her little pups, such as Oxo, Flash, Spick, Span, and Bisto. They are all cocker spaniels. She also has other dog breeds like Corgis and Dorgis, which are actually a cross breed of corgis and dachshund.

Drew Barrymore

The men in Drew Barrymore's life may come and ago, but her beloved yellow Labrador/Chow still remains her ultimate companion. As a matter of fact, there's no other "friend" that loved her more than this little pooch. Back in 2001, when the mansion Drew and her then-husband Tom Green were staying caught on fire, it was actually Flossie that saved their lives by banging on the couple's door. Without her, we could have lost a much adored Hollywood actress.

Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton, a certified socialite and hotel chain heiress, is notorious for many things, including pioneering small dogs as fashion statements. For many years she was never seen without her little Tinkerbell - a chihuahua. Since Paris never leaves the spotlight, it's only a matter of time before Tinkerbell herself starts making headlines, just like her infamous owner.

In 2004, Tinkerbell became the main story when she went missing and a $5,000 reward was posted. She was also the inspiration of a Paris Hilton book satire, which was entitled Tinkerbell Hilton Diaries.

Matthew McConaughey

Before there was Penelope Cruz and Camila Alves, a supermodel, there was Miss Hud, a Labrador and chow mix, who was the love of Matthew McConaughey's life. Their companionship allowed Matthew to easily move on from heartbreaking split-ups with several beautiful Hollywood celebrities and made him one of the most appealing and endearing men. Sadly Miss Hud passed away in 2005.

Oprah Winfrey

Oprah's dogs are her babies. She loved them as much as she loved her partner, Stedman, and her best friend Gayle. She would often share her spotlight with her pooches - Sophie, Solomon, Gracie, and Luke, among others. They were sometimes turned into subjects of her own talk show, such as when Sophie passed away and a tribute was made to her. And if these weren't enough, to honor her memory, Oprah bought a condominium unit, which she named Sophie's Penthouse LLC.
