40 Photos of Old Hollywood Stars and Their Pets

It's well documented that no one, not even the stars of yesteryear, can resist a puppy cuddle. During the Golden Age of Hollywood, it was common for stars to be gifted a pet from a fan or their studio to be used as a promotional tool for an upcoming film.
