It’s a (Dulux) Dog’s Life

From an unexpected rise to fame to a starring role on the silver screen, we chart the history of our beloved mascot. 1961 The year in which the dog was first ...
introduced into Dulux’s advertising campaigns. Shepton Daphnis Horsa (or Dash, as he was affectionately known) belonged to the ad’s director. Legend has it that Dash kept running across the set to play with the child actors and, when it came to editing, the footage was so adorable, they couldn’t resist keeping him in.   14 The number of Dulux dogs there have been since 1961. Like Dash, many of them also had regal-sounding names:  Fernville Lord Digby (Digby for short), King Hotspur of Amblegait, Dreamweaver Lorien’s Lament (or Pickle for short) and Duke.   4 The number of hours each dog spends in hair and make-up before a big shoot (OK, maybe not make-up, but with an Old English Sheepdog, a hairdryer and hairbrush are essential). And all Dulux dogs have their own chauffeur. (None of our doggie divas have ever bothered learning to drive.)   450 When Dash retired, a competition to find his replacement saw 450 Old English Sheepdog owners enter their dogs. Held at the Café Royal in London, the winner was Digby.   1973 Digby, undoubtedly the most famous of all the Dulux dogs, made it onto the big screen in the Seventies, starring alongside Spike Milligan in children’s adventure film Digby: The Biggest Dog in the World.   6 The number of stunt doubles that Digby had for the difficult action sequences. He also had special coats made to keep his fur in perfect condition on set.   5 All of the Dulux dogs (apart from Dash) have been breed champions, with five of them winning ‘Best in Show’ prizes. In fact, Old English Sheepdogs have become synonymous with Dulux, the term ‘Dulux Dog’ being a common nickname for the breed.   51 The original Dulux dog advert reached an impressive No 51 in Channel 4’s 100 Greatest TV Adverts programme.

What’s in a tin of Dulux?

Inside every tin of paint is a mix of art, science and a little bit of magic!     Expert knowledge in every tin The Dulux brand is built on ...
constant improvement through innovation. Our experts are passionate about creating products that are durable, easier to use and have special and distinctive properties for different purposes – from slowing the progress of fire in buildings to killing bacteria in hospitals. We’re always looking to the world around us for inspiration. Biomimicry – developing scientific solutions inspired by nature – has helped us create stain-resistant technology that replicates the beading effect when water hits the surface of a leaf (Diamond), as well as water-resistant paints that take their cue from the feathers on a duck’s back (Cuprinol). These tough, ‘superhydrophobic’ finishes extend the decorating cycle by years, saving customers money and reducing their impact on the environment in the process. Our people Probably our most important ingredient, people are the heart of everything we do – from the technical support staff advising customers on the end of the phone, and the colour experts and scientists in the lab, to the sales teams helping professionals get the most out of the products we make every day And not forgetting the Dulux dog… Ever since Dash, the director’s dog, ran on the set of the 1961 TV ad and became an accidental celebrity, the Old English Sheepdog has been the iconic mascot of our brand. He still represents that quality, trust and loyalty that customers have come to expect of Dulux.
