Paris Says Adios to Tinkerbell
August 15, 2005
Tinkerbell has endured much as Paris Hilton's plaything. The ridiculous canine couture. The flashbulb-filled photo ops. The constant complaining about how former BFF Nicole Richie did her wrong. The declarations about what, exactly, is hot.
But it appears the teacup Chihuahua's days of being Paris' perfectly coordinated lapdog are over.
In a move likely to make People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals foam at the mouth, the air-headed heiress has sent her once ubiquitous purebred pooch packing, claims New York magazine.
Paris, 24, purportedly prefers her younger, tinier pup Bambi (think "All About Eve," but with dogs), which she acquired back in March, and has banished the quivery, shivery Tink to second-rate celebrity status by sending her to live with her mom, Kathy.
"[Paris] only likes them when they're very small," a source tells the mag, "and Tinkerbell got too big."
Tinkerbell's breeder tells the magazine that the pampered, pricey tail-wagger (puppies from that bloodline cost an estimated $10,000) is a bit larger than normal, adding that teacup Chihuahuas usually "won't go over 3.5 pounds, but if you fix them or feed them junk ... "
(Of course, even at that weight, the itty-bitty bowwow is still smaller than Paris' knuckle-buckling 24-carat engagement ring from fiance Paris Latsis.)
Tinkerbell, who briefly went missing last summer (a sullen Hilton posed for pictures as she posted signs offering a $5,000 reward), apparently had some trouble adjusting to "the new baby."
"I still have Tinkerbell and I love her, too, but she gets jealous and she bites [Bambi] when I'm holding both of them," Paris said a few months back.
We can only hope the allegedly forsaken Tink, whose relationship with her mistress was immortalized in a hilarious, suicide-tinged episode of "South Park," releases a Snausage-fueled tell-all that will put last year's unauthorized tome, "The Tinkerbell Hilton Diaries: My Life Tailing Paris Hilton," to shame.

Got too big or doesn't match her summer wardrobe? And the breeder is just as much of an airhead for that stupid comment.:mad:
