Role: Major Phipps’s loyal (and royal) — notoriously spoiled, imperious poodle.

Personality: Tiny in stature, tyrannical in spirit, with the entitlement of a minor European monarch.

Art Collector: A fixture at auctions and gallery openings, where he terrorizes canapé trays and once famously “acquired” a Damien Hirst sketch by sitting on it.

Style: Wears a diamond-encrusted collar probably worth more than your rent — and insists on arriving everywhere via monogrammed Louis Vuitton pet carrier.
