Move over rom-com royalty—there’s a new leading man in Champagne Problems, and he’s only nine inches tall with snow-white fur and the kind of black-button eyes that could melt the iciest winter heart.
Yes, we’re talking about Maguy, the West Highland White Terrier who has officially stolen Netflix’s spotlight and our hearts. While Minka Kelly dazzles in the new holiday romance, it’s little Maguy—playing the perfectly named “Bulles”—who has everyone squealing, “Who’s that dog?!”
And at DOGUE, we always know a star when we see one.
A Canine Star Born in France
Maguy isn’t just another cute pup on screen—he’s a professionally trained canine actor from the prestigious French dog-training academy, Equipe Pittavino Leloup in Écouis, France. Think: Juilliard, but with fluff. Chanel runway prep, but with treats.
Founded in 1987, the school has over 500 film and TV credits, and Maguy is one of their most glamorous alumni. He was born in July 2016, and practically entered the entertainment world. His résumé sparkles brighter than a holiday ornament: Astérix et Obélix (as the iconic Dogmatix!), Priceless, 4 Zéros, Alibi.com 2, Permission to Build …and now the global Netflix hit Champagne Problems.
Why He’s the Talk of the Town
In Champagne Problems, Maguy plays Bulles, the fluffy family companion who delivers comedic relief, endless charm, and major “awww” moments—especially in the final scene, where he’s dressed as Santa and hilariously chases a bunny.
Hollywood, Take Notes: The Dogs Are Coming
With Maguy joining the ranks of 2025’s other breakout canine actors (hello, Too Much’s Mia!), we are entering the era of Cinematic Canines. Small dogs. Big presence. Massive fan bases.
If you haven’t watched Champagne Problems yet, trust us—Maguy alone is worth the stream. He’s charming, he’s expressive, and he brings the perfect sprinkle of festive magic to a holiday romance.
Here’s to Maguy, France’s new breakout thespian, lighting up screens and hearts across the world. We’ll be keeping a close eye on his next move.
