After undergoing constant scrutiny for dyeing the hair of her maltese, Ginger, Aubrey O'Day defends the practice because her dog "likes to have looks."

REALLY?!

"It actually seems like such a taboo weird thing nowadays, but if you research online, you will see a whole underworld of dogs who are dyed," said Skanky.

Well, isn't that comforting!

Although she dyes the pup's hair for different occasions (i.e. green to cheer on the Boston Celtics), O'Day claims that her vet approves all coloring used and she's even working on a line of natural products.

Working on a product for dogs?! Fitting!!

She also feels that the process of degrading your pooch
is "hassle-free; she doesn’t even know [it's happening]" because Audrey does the deed when Ginger is sleeping.

"I do it like anyone would color hair. She sits on my lap, and I have a brush, and I paint it on and use foils," said the moron.

And Skanky Dolittle knows exactly what her dog is thinking!

Ginger "loves attention and because she's colored and has different outfits, she gets so much of it. She prefers it."

Yikes!!

We're sure the doggie doesn't want to be as tacky as her owner!

This makes us sick!

Klingon look-alike Robie Lynn Jenkins and her boyfriend, Tremayne Spillman, are facing felony abuse charges after their pitbull chewed off the toes of their 4-month old son.

Disgusting!

The North Carolina couple claim that they were taking care of the child on Monday during the attack.

The follicly challenged, mother-of-the year was taking medication and allegedly did not the hear the baby's cries, despite sleeping in the same room.

Apparently, they only discovered the missing appendages when changing their son's diaper the next morning. The child may lose the rest of his foot.

So sad!

Chanel, the Guinness World Record holder for oldest living dog, passed away on August 28. The wirehaired dachsund, who turned 21 years old on May 6th, wore sunglasses for cataracts, but was otherwise in great health for her age.

Adopted in 1988 by Karl and Denice Shaughnessy of Port Jefferson Station, New York, Chanel's long-term health was said to be attributed to treats from dog food company Dogswell.

"We were saddened to learn of Chanel's passing on Friday evening," says Marco Giannini, founder and CEO for Dogswell. "We were thankful to have had some part in making Chanel's life a little more comfortable and enjoyable…She will be missed."

Aww, rest in peace, bb.

P.S. We'll have to get Teddy Hilton some of those treats!

Why does Aubrey O'Day insist on doing that to her poor dog?

Aubrey brought her dog, Ginger, with her to her taping of The Wendy Williams Show in NYC on Wednesday and for whatever reason, she degraded the poor thing by dressing her like a clown!

Look how unhappy she is!

Quit dressing your dog in ridiculous outfits and dying its hair, woman! Worry about your own damn self!

You're wearing a fishnet shirt and a biker bitch skirt for crying out loud!

And it was not pleasant!

Gerard Butler was involved in an argument with an elderly Queens couple after their dogs got in a fight near the Long Island City set of his film The Bounty on Monday.

It depends which story you believe, but Fred and Maria Varecka claim that Butler viciously yelled at the couple's greyhound, Mayfly, when his nose touched that of his pug, Lolita. Then, he slammed the greyhound's head against a fence and screamed, "The dog should be put down!"

Uh, we highly doubt that version!

"I said, 'Your dog should be put on a leash.' He kept on going and going, ranting and raving. He was being verbally abusive," claims Maria. "And he smacked the dog in the head. The dog's head went into the fence. I was shaking. The dog yelped. I said, 'Keep your hands off my dog! Why did you hit my dog?' He didn't say a word."

The Varekas' filed a report with the NYPD, but no citations were given.

According to Butler's manager, Alan Siegel: "What happened was, Gerry was walking his dog, Lolita, who is this little, small pug, a teeny thing. You can hold her in one arm, she's that small. Then, suddenly, this greyhound, this huge, menacing dog, bites Lolita."

After Maria and Gerard had a few words, Mayfly took another bite out of Lolita!

Butler spent the next four hours at an Upper East Side animal hospital and even gave $3,000 to another family he just met to cover their vet bills.

So sweet! We hope that's true!

Proof of a the lil' pug's injuries should clear this dispute right up!

Get well, Lolita!

Poor little doggie!

Mugly, winner of the 2005 title for Britain's Ugliest Dog, was victim of an attack by a group of thugs in Cambridgeshire this past week.

The practically hairless dog was rescued by a good samaritan who witnessed the animal being kicked, punched and hit with a stick!

Terrible!!!

"They had pulled out a little tuft of hair he had on his neck," said owner Bev Nicholson. "It was the only hair he had and they even managed to take off one of his eyebrows. I can't even work out how they would have done that."

Mugly was returned home with a few cuts and bruises, yet he was extremely shaken.

"You just can't think why these people would do such a horrible thing," continued the owner. "It's horrible because he loves people so much he probably thought it was just a game and all they were interested in was hurting him."

It breaks our hearts!

We're so glad he's okay!!!!

We hope this isn't a ploy to garner goodwill in the NFL!

Although he has made vague statements about being remorseful for his former dog-abusing ways, Michael Vick has released an official apology denouncing his previous behavior and his intentions to turn over a new leaf.

Here are some of the HIGHlights:

On his crimes:
What I did was horrendous. Awful. Inhumane. And I've no excuses for my actions. It makes my heart hurt now to think about what I've done. And I'm gonna be real honest, it took a while for me to get to this place.

On coming to grips with his former self:
I have been trying hard to connect with people who feel this pain,because for my whole life I was disconnected from the suffering of animals. And you might say, "come on Mike, how could you do those things to those dogs?" And you're right…I ask myself those questions every day. What kind of person does this? How does a human-being treat dogs or any animal with such pain and cruelty? And the hard part for me is the answer to these questions. Because the answer is ME. And I am trying so hard right now to become a better person, because who I was, I am ashamed of.

On redemption:
Now that I'm trying my best to wake up, I know I have a lot of work to do. And this isn't about trying to win a Super Bowl ring or a MVP trophy…this is about trying to save lives. I think back to when I use to play football and of course I use to see all those kids in the stands wearing #7 jerseys. And I would never want them to look up to the Michael Vick who did all of those terrible things to the dogs. I know where I need to do the most work is with all of the people around the world who continue to fight dogs. Let me be straight forward with y'all: What I did was wrong, and what you're doing is wrong. We must stop dog fighting, and I will do everything in my power to be a voice of someone who has finally woken up from the numbness, and knows just how bad it really is. My mission now is to be a source of service to save many animals. I am working very closely with The Humane Society and will be launching a new campaign shortly. If I had one hope in life, it would be that my actions will speak louder than my words. I know it will be hard to forgive me until you see my sincerity through my actions, but I promise you and I promise myself that that day will come. Lastly, I accept this challenge, not of writing this blog, but of redeeming myself.

He better be for realz!

Do U think he should be forgiven?!

We hope all unemployed, poverty stricken Americans turn a deaf ear, because this could be painful!!

Paris Hilton had a 300 sq. ft, $325,000 dog house built for her pups Tinkerbell, Marilyn Monroe, Prince Baby Bear, Harajuku, Dolce and Prada.

The pooch mansion sits behind her Beverly Hills home and is furnished with faux designer doggie products from Jimmy Chew, Pawda, Sniffany & Co. and Chewy Vuitton.

“It’s a miniature version of my house,” said the heiress to Life & Style. “I designed it with the help of my interior decorator, Faye Resnick. I wanted it to be fun, cute, comfortable and beautiful. My friends just love it and think it’s so adorable and cool.”

The two floor dog house has a clay-tile roof with copper gutters, intricate ceiling molding and a crystal chandelier hanging in the bedroom complete with central air. The dogs even have a closet and a downstairs living room!

“They love lying on the balcony, playing in their backyard and hanging out on their living room furniture. They appreciate the house that Mommy built for them,” she continued. "The dogs love to dress up. My friends say they have a better wardrobe than most people.”

We have no doubt!!!
