The sun is shining in Hollywood, New York and London at the moment, which makes for perfect dog-walking weather. A-listers across the globe have been spotted hitting the pavement this week, best furry friends in tow. And while having a puppy is most definitely de rigour, the type of pooch preferred doesn’t seem to be trend-based at all. In fact, it seems to hit a little closer to home… as most of these stars look more than a little bit similar to their four-legged companions.

Lily Allen.

A newly brunette (and fairly sour-faced Lily) heads out with her stocky, dark, no-nonsense dog.

Blake Lively



Blake’s puppy is probably the cutest thing we’ve ever seen… and it also appears to have the same colourist as its owner.

Jessica Simpson



With the blonde hair and a slightly vacant expression, could this dog really belong to anyone else?

Paris Hilton



While Paris tries desperately to morph into Nicole, we think her pup might be doing the some style stalking its own. She seems to have the classic Paris head-tilt-with-one-arm-out pose mastered.
