Buster (Dog)
Matthew Macfadyen and Keeley Hawes have a big red standard Poodle named Buster that they got in the summer of 2020. They chose this breed because it’s hypoallergenic, as Macfadyen is allergic to cats and dogs.
Rescue Mini Poodle (Dog)
In December 2023, Keeley Hawes and Matthew Macfayen adopted a miniature Poodle from the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home. The happy couple has yet to reveal the name of the lucky rescue. And oh yeah, please note the new pup is on her lap in the background. The big boy blocking the view is her brother, Buster, who clearly needs some time to adjust to sharing his fur parents’ attention.
Thank you @battersea for the newest member of our family. We couldn’t love her more.
