Like George Clooney, there is a lot of greying around the lugholes. Up close, he has limpid eyes the colour of stewed tea and an adorable expression, yet - like many Hollywood giants - he does look rather older in the flesh.
Costume changes? No biggie for this veteran star of stage and screen.Īlthough he is quite sleepy, he accepts a pat and a cuddle like the seasoned pro he is. Today he is wearing his beloved brass and leather Palm Dog collar, although later he will slip into black tie and shades. Our star is in the back, curled up on his heated leather seat. Our day begins when, bang on time, Uggie’s sleek Jaguar pulls up at the kerb to pick me up. How dogist can these people be?Īll right, Uggie. ‘He was light, lovable, plain fun and funny,’ said the judges.Īnd while he is sure to be a woof-in at the inaugural Dog News Daily Golden Collar Awards in Hollywood next month - where the best canine performances in film are honoured by a panel of movie industry dog lovers - Uggie has been locked out of any chance of a gong at the Globes, the Oscars and the Baftas. While the actors, directors and designers involved have been showered with accolades and compliments, little Uggie has not been entirely overlooked.Īs opposed to the famous Palm D’Or, the terrier won the Palm Dog at the 2011 Cannes Film Festival for best canine performance in a film.
He is the nine-year-old long-legged, broken-coat Jack Russell terrier who stars in the hit film The Artist, which has been nominated for six Golden Globes and is sure to clean up at the Oscars. This is the famous Uggie - a Bonio fide star, the top dog everyone is talking about, a genuine bow wow wow. He’s blond, he’s handsome, he’s licking my face again - yes, he’s a dog.
Here I am, in a hot clinch with a big Hollywood star - and his thrilled expression reveals just how much he loves me, me, me. Uggie is the nine-year-old long-legged, broken-coat Jack Russell terrier who stars in The ArtistĮat your hearts out, bitches.
