A message on the charity's website also detailed how Millie got to know her new family.

It said: "Millie was found without a home and hoping for food scraps outside of a local restaurant in San Gabriel earlier this month.

"Today her luck changed for the better when she was adopted by George and Amal Clooney. They were searching for a basset hound and saw Millie's picture on Petfinder. They did a 'meet and greet' with her and spent time introducing her to their other rescue, a cocker spaniel named Louie.A

"It was good news that Millie and Louie hit it off and the happy, new family headed home together! We hope Millie will stay in touch and send photos. Congratulations to the Clooney family and thank you for adopting!"
