It’s the best time of the year, Women’s History Month! It isn’t always a walk in the park for us in this crazy world, but we couldn’t reach our successes without our biggest supporters-our fur babies! To celebrate women everywhere, here are some superwomen and their sidekicks. Who says a woman’s best friend is a diamond? Dogs need to be added to that list…

Simone Biles, the queen of Gymnastics and four-time Olympic gold medalist has two dogs. Simone is a mother to two adorable Frenchies named Lilo and Rambo. They even have their own Instagram account @thebilesfrenchies. She says that Lilo and Rambo help her cope with the pressures of being one of the world’s best athletes.

Paris Hilton is inseparable from her Tinkerbell, a two-pound teacup Chihuahua. This is one of the smallest breeds of the world. Paris says she ‘has a thing for small animals’ and takes ‘Tink’ everywhere. I have never been so jealous of a dog before.

Drew Barrymore, an absolute ray of sunshine and her beloved fur babies. Drew has spoken about the unspoken connectivity and altruism we have with our animals. She values these relationships and mostly with rescues. Drew has two wonderful sidekicks, Douglass and Lucy. She rescued Doug from the pound at just eight weeks old, he had been left in a box on the side of the road. Doug and Drew found each other and it has been heaven on earth since.

Heidi Klum always does it big, with her iconic Halloween costumes and fun personality; her big dog does not stray away from the theme. Heidi has an Irish Wolfhound named Anton. Back in 2019 when Heidi had gotten Anton as a puppy, he was already almost twice the size of her!
