Britney Spears tops the charts of The New York Dog and The Hollywood Dog as worst celebrity dog owner because she abandoned her three dogs. Am I the only one who recognized that Spears was a bad dog owner when she kept dogs as fashion accessories?
The title of Best Celebrity Dog Owner was taken by Oprah Winfrey, whose five dogs each have a personal nanny. While hired pet-care does not top my list of criteria for responsible dog ownership, the cause of pet-friendly lodging was certainly served when the Ritz-Carlton St. Louis arranged for “'special amenities' . . . for two canine companions of Oprah Winfrey when she came to town." Winfrey is also among the celebrities who "signed wooden 'dog bones' for a charity auction benefiting the Mississippi Animal Rescue League."
