Hollywood’s Newest Trend: Pet Adoption

Photobucket

Some of the biggest celebs in Hollywood are saving lives … of the four-legged variety. No longer is it popular to walk around with a pet shop-purchased pedigree dog by your side. These days, stars are heading to their local animal shelters to find their furry best friend. Katherine Heigl's Hounds of Hope saves dogs from kill shelters. Sandra Bullock adopted a two-legged dog and a three-legged dog.

In the latest episode of "Celebrity Pet Project," one of pet adoption's biggest supporters, Mariel Hemingway, explains to host Theo Von how her mixed-breed cuties have changed her life. The actress is also featured in the new book, A Letter To My Dog, an ode to man's best friend that includes letters from owners including Oprah Winfrey and Hilary Duff.

A young boy has been killed at Pittsburgh zoo after he fell into an enclosure holding African wild dogs and was attacked by a pack of the animals.

Lieutenant Kevin Kraus of the Pittsburgh police said the attack happened at about 11.45am local time on Sunday after the mother picked the child up and put him on top of a railing at the edge of a viewing deck. "Almost immediately after that he lost his balance, fell down off the railing into the pit, and he was immediately attacked by 11 dogs," Kraus said. "It was very horrific."
