The wrath of the world was unleashed on Jennifer Lawrence recently after the Oscar-winning Silver Linings Playbook star said she’d rehomed her dog with her octogenarian parents after the chihuahua (named Princess Pippi Longstocking) bit one of her young children. “That made me want to obliterate every dog ever,” the mother-of-two said. “You don’t dump your dog just because you had kids, you learn to teach your kids to respect your pet,” fans responded online. “I really don’t like her now.”
Anger similarly ensued when West End Girl singer Lily Allen admitted that she’d ditched her adopted dog Mary on her Miss Me? podcast in 2024, after the rescue had eaten her family’s passports. She subsequently received death threats. “I really tried very hard with her, but it just didn’t work out, and the passports were the straw that broke the camel’s back, so to speak,” Allen had carefully explained.
