Well, it certainly seemed plausible, given Paris Hilton's track record with pets.
Nevertheless, the heiress is now barking back at recent reports claiming she was prevented from purchasing a pooch.
"I was catching up on news last week, only to read a story about me walking by some puppies for sale and demanding that I be given a Yorkie puppy to be an accessory for a photo shoot," Paris wrote Monday on her MySpace blog.
"I wasn't looking for a new pet. I wasn't even at a photo shoot that day," she clarifies, before quickly pointing out: "Puppies are not accessories or toys."
So then Tinkerbell is just a guard dog. Got it.
