(DAILYMAIL) — Picasso had his rose period – and now so too does Emma Watson’s four-legged friend Darcy, after the Harry Potter actress headed out with a friend’s dog, who was dyed a shocking shade of bubblegum pink.

Thanks to a fashionable £90 treatment, the one-year-old bichon frise now has a look that might go down well with pink-loving Hogwarts professor Dolores Umbridge – even if it has raised eyebrows among some animal-lovers.

Ms Watson was spotted with the pink pooch on the streets of Bethnal Green, East London, on Friday, after Darcy had the dye treatment at Groom Dog City.

Owner Stuart Simons said: ‘Pink is our biggest colour, but I do look after another bichon called Casper who comes in for a blue mohican.’
