Carrie Fisher's pet dog, a French bulldog named Gary, is something of a celebrity in his own right.
After accompanying his owner on numerous outings - including red carpet appearances and even a trip to the White House - the dog has built up a large following on social media, with 39,000 Twitter followers and 70,000 fans on Instagram.
After Ms Fisher was admitted to hospital last Friday following a heart attack, a picture of Gary looking out of a window appeared on his Twitter account, along with the caption: "I'll be waiting right here mommy."
After news broke that the Star Wars star had died in hospital, the account posted: "Saddest tweets to tweet. Mommy is gone. I love you @carrieffisher."
