Britney Spears -- Terrierist

16. She didn't think of the hard work and effort required before she had her kids, so why would we expect her to think about anything before she bought a dog?

Britney isn't the first person to buy a dog from a pet-store, but her celebrity-status makes her an easy target here. She also has too much going on in her life right now to be worrying about a dog or a parakeet. Isn't she still living in a hotel right now anyway?

17. 8 Million homeless animals are euthanized every year, through no fault of their own. I'm not saying that Britney is going to abandon her dog, but these celebs really NEED TO STOP treating animals as fashion accessories! Yesterday I saw photos of Parisite with a Yorkie, what happened to the bloody Tink? Yorkies must be the new must have right after the iphone...An animal is a lifetime commitment, after spanding 30 minutes with it, are you ready to spend 13 years with it. It's not always going to be sweet and cute, it's going to piss on your carpet and chew on your shoes...
Owning an animal takes serious time and commitment. It is NOT something that should be an impulse purchase!
$3000 for a dog, dogs at the pound run about 60$ and believe me there are Yorkies there (along with every other pure breed you could want). And there are even Yorkie rescue groups, ,,,,
So once again, a dog is NOT like an Mp3 player, a cell phone, a pair of shoes or a handbag!

18. Why get a dog when you can't even handle your own children... and didn't she have a rat dog not too long ago... where is the concern for where that dog is buried Human Society?

Machelle- THAT IS AN AWESOME IDEA!

TMZ once a month should have a poll for which celebrity shouldn't be recognized at all on... they did it for a week about Parisite. Who ever gets the most votes should be shunned off the site for a month...

Perhaps it will stop "rewarding" this deplorable behavior from Hollywood's Harlots (yeah you britany, nicole, paris and friends)

19. I always cringe when I see a dog purchased by the status conscientous folks. I have received/rescued several pugs from these people (especially after the the release of the Men in Black movies). Sadly many dogs, through the "help" of breeders, do have special needs. Several of the dogs I have rescued (the majority from the wealthy) have been abused, either by neglect which comes after the "thrill" of owning them has worn out. They come to me obese, with ear and tooth infections, poor coat quality and psychologically damaged from being totally ignored (or cast off).

To many they are just a dog, but the reasons for getting a pet and the after-purchase care, or lack there of, shows much about the owner's character.

Buying an animal, "just because," or, "their cute," or because they are portrayed in a movie causes harm to the animal plus expense to the public.

20. WooHa23 are you saying the Humane Society are losers? Have any of yall seen pictures or heard stories of puppy mills? All these richy, rich people buying dogs for the publicy is ludicrous!
I raise Yorkies in my home, and everyone sleeps on the bed. I would NEVER buy any puppy from a store, parking lot or anywhere but from a place that I can see how they are raised. Check out the puppymillrescue.com and see if yall dont see the Humane Society's views.

21. Opps.....she did it again. When will this girl show some responsibility! First of all, why is she taking the poor little dog to the gym/dance studio? No place for a scared little puppy who's just been taken away from it's mother! Second, does she not realize that these types of dogs are scared and need not be around young kids. I have my second yorkie (that did not come from a pet store or kennel) and I know this for a fact. These so-called 'stars' think these dogs are simply accessories, and nothing more. Go to the local dog pound and rescue a dog that otherwise wouldn't have a chance. I really think that when people purchase a pet from a pet store, that they think they are getting quality, healthier pets! That's not the case. Check out a puppy mill site - StopPuppyMills.org - and see for yourself where these cute little dogs come from. The dog will be left to be taken care of by the nanny or housekeeper when it's not so little and cute - which may not be a bad thing!

22. Stephanie Shain of the Humane Society can stick it where the sun doesn't shine. Buying a dog is a major life decision?? Give me a break. Buying dog is buying a dog, it's not a farging marriage proposal. So Shain ads herself to the list of Britney bashers.

23. Britney should be at home with her kids, and should really think about giving them to Kevin or her mom if she'd rather be out partying all the time.Think about the kids, they need structure in their life.

24. britney,does not need a dog to care for !! she needs to care for those kids and the way her carreer is flowing she needs to stop spending money and partying and focus on those beautiful babies and get them a decent education so they can have a life outside of hollywoods grips !

25. She needs a dog like she needs another child! BTW - where the hell are her children? She's such a damn loser!

26. First of all. Britney seriously has everything but is ONE LONELY LONELY PERSON! She married KFED and everyone bashed him. He's a guy and he can do whatever he wants and it's all good. Britney goes out and she's abadoning her children. ON THE FLIPSIDE> This girl runs off to buy a $$$$$ Expensive Dog and carries it around, but yet she can't even carry her OWN CHILDREN!!!
I Don't blame her mother for caring for the grandchildren and their care....maybe she should thought of that when she was advertising her daughter for the MICKEY MOUSE CLUB!

We all have drama, they just have money!!!!

29. What ever happened to Bit-Bit?

30. I don't care what Brittany does in her own little world, we all have issues. WHat I do care about is that little Yorkie, As a mother of a Yorkie, they are very very delicate and sensative. They should not be around babies or toddlers! Since I have purchased mine froma pet store, I have since learned of his past and yes he did come from a puppy mill I have since become a big advocate to do what I can to shut them down. Maybe she would be good to it, but unlike myself hopefully she could use her star power to bring the reality of the unhuman acts of puppy mills and brokers! That would be a great start for her to bring her own self esteem up!
