Some people just can’t let it go. They are, in fact, so enchanted by Frozen, one of the biggest movies of the last two years, that not only will you find little girls walking around dressed as Queen Elsa, but you are likely to hear about more dogs with the same moniker.
You also just must run into more Leias, Vaders, Yodas, and Chewbaccas walking around as Star Wars’ fans named their pups after favourite characters, perhaps in anticipation of the latest installment of the series due out in theatres in late 2015.
