Former 3rd Rock From the Sun star Kristen Johnston and her pal "Pinky" can frequently be found strolling together along the streets of New York City.

Heading out on their honeymoon proved to be a family affair for Gisele Bundchen and sports star Tom Brady, who brought along one of the Brazilian beauty's three fur babies on a trip back to the supermodel's homeland.

The star of The Ice Storm is a proud parent to three fur babies-- a Great Dane/German Shepherd named "Walter", a French Bulldog who answers to "Ramon" and a playful part Pomeranian/part Dachshund with a dog tag that displays the name "Benny".
