Britney, Paris Hilton Dogs Spark Dangerous Trend

Dogs Trust, the UK’s largest dog welfare charity, issued a warning against buying dogs as Christmas presents to keep up with the latest fad popularized by Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, and others. “Giving someone a new puppy for Christmas along with a pair of cowboy boots or a fake fur sole is not something you should do lightly,” Dogs Trust chief executive Clarissa Baldwin said. “With the likes of Paris Hilton and now Britney Spears following this latest fad, we are concerned this latest fashion will have a detrimental impact. Sadly, every year charities such as Dogs Trust have to pick up the pieces when people don’t think through the commitment of sharing their life with a dog. Fashions change, please make sure your commitment to your dog does not.” Check out more details at DogsTrust.or.uk.
