True to her word, Coleen later updated her Instagram fans with the exciting news. “I’VE JUST GOT ANOTHER DOG. Introducing Buster Nolan,” she said.
In a new post, she also shared snippets of her day and the heartwarming first moments with Buster, a 14-year-old Shih Tzu.
“Buster Nolan. We have just fostered the most adorable 14-year-old Shih Tzu,” Coleen gushed in the caption. “Once we brought him home, we already knew this is going to be his forever home, we love him so much already! Buster, welcome to the family!”

Fans react
Fan reactions were overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing their admiration for Coleen’s choice to adopt and her love for animals.
Comments flooded in, praising the Loose Women star for her compassionate decision.
“Aww he’s a cutie Coleen, I bet you wanted to take them all,” one fan gushed.
“You are the best he’s so settled already by looking at him, I couldn’t have left them all. Wish people would think to adopt rather than buying a puppy Coleen,” another echoed.
A third shared their excitement: “Aww that’s so lovely. Shih Tzus are a fantastic little dog. Very loyal and loving. What a lucky boy to have his forever home with you.”
Interestingly, this announcement also stirred a conversation among fans regarding Coleen’s potential in television, specifically taking over the beloved show, For the Love of Dogs.
The popular ITV show set at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home was famously presented by Paul O’Grady until his death in March 2023. Since then, This Morning host Alison Hammond bagged the coveted role as his replacement.
However, Alison’s involvement has garnered mixed reactions from fans.
“Coleen, like others have said. You should have taken over the Paul O’Grady show,” one fan pointed out.
Others echoed this sentiment: “ITV is missing a trick. You should be Battersea girl. Sorry Alison, love you but this girl deserves that role so much.”
“Congratulations on your new dog he’s going to be so happy at your house. You should be on the programme to present Battersea Dogs Home,” a third fan agreed.
