When he’s not on set, Hugh Jackman enjoys spending time with his beloved dog, Allegra. Whether they’re hitting the gym together or going for walks, the actor is often seen with his four-legged companion.
He previously had another furry friend, a French Bulldog named Dali. Sadly, Dali passed away a few years ago.
Let’s take a closer look at Allegra, including her age and breed.
How Old Is Hugh Jackman’s Dog Allegra?
While Allegra’s exact age isn’t publicly known, she became part of Jackman’s family in 2014 as an early Christmas gift.
Since then, she has been by his side through the years, becoming a constant presence in his life.
During a 2015 interview with Magic Radio, Jackman joked about how Allegra is even more popular than he is.
He mentioned that any time he shares something about his dogs online, the response is overwhelming. “It blows up,” he said.
He also recalled a funny experience from when he was performing in a play. Fans knew his daily routine of heading to the theater, but instead of waiting to see him, they were more interested in Allegra!
At first, he found it amusing, but he understands—she’s quite the star herself. While traveling, he even used to Skype just to check in on his “fluffy, very very cute and adorable” pup.
What Breed Is Allegra?
Allegra is a Labradoodle, a mix between a Labrador Retriever and either a Standard or Miniature Poodle.
This breed is known for being friendly, playful, and loyal, with an average lifespan of 12 to 15 years.
Allegra joined the family a few years after Dali, who sadly passed away in 2022, just shy of his 12th birthday.
Jackman shared the heartbreaking news on Instagram, posting a heartfelt tribute to his late furry friend.
For Jackman, dogs are more than just pets—they’re family. Allegra continues to be a cherished companion, bringing joy to the actor’s everyday life.
