Jennifer Lawrence's first pet dog Ozzie wasn’t a big fan of her or her family. While the beloved A-lister is recognized for her witty sense of humor and acting finesse in Hollywood, her pet probably didn’t care as much. 

The Oscar winner once went undercover on the internet to answer random questions about herself online. During the session, she stumbled on a social media post that discussed her poor relationship with her dog Ozzie, and clarified if the revelation was true. 

Jennifer Lawrence accepted that her first pet dog hated her family

Jennifer Lawrence, 33, once elaborated on her first pet dog Ozzie’s antics after an Instagram post highlighted that the Schnauzer “hated” the star and her family so much that he never stayed in the same room with them. 

Sitting down for a fun Q&A session with GQ, the actress revealed in 2018, “It’s absolutely true. Ozzie hated us.”

She compared Ozzie’s strange behavior to other dogs saying most “normally” like to be in a room filled with people. But for Ozzie, that wasn’t the case. “He always stayed in the opposite room,” Lawrence said of Ozzie. 

The revelation about her pet dog first came during another fun interview with W Magazine the same year, where Lawrence was accompanied by her pal Emma Stone. She echoed the comments about Ozzie avoiding her family at all costs.

Meanwhile, the queries about The Hunger Games alum ranged from absurd rumors to fun facts that even got her cracking up. She responded to them with hilarious remarks. 

Elsewhere in the interview, Lawrence addressed a quote that she says had been “haunting” her for her whole life. 

Her Wikipedia page quoted that she knew she would become famous from her earlier days, based on her remarks from an interview. Turns out, the Passengers star regrets saying that because she was drunk during the conversation, per the source.
