Last week Ecorazzi reported that Paris Hilton was denied the purchase of a yorkie once the pet store found out she merely planned on using the dog for a photo shoot. Now Paris has come out on her official blog to fight the rumors and defend her honor!! Here’s what she had to say:

“I wanted to let you know that I’ve been getting messages and reading stories about an incident that supposedly happened with me and a pet store: 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. These stories have gotten out of control and I want to clear some things up-

I wasn’t looking for a new pet, I wasn’t even at a photo shoot that day, (I was down the street at Benji’s DCMA clothing store) and I actually have a Yorkie puppy. I love animals and the cruel things people say are not acceptable. Puppies are not accessories or toys and I love my own pets dearly–I treat them as if they were my children. Of course I support pet adoption from shelters, and I made sure that my BFF show involved a local one to spread the word about how these animals need loving owners. So it is sad that someone felt the need to invent a story about me throwing a fit for a dog that would “go with my outfit.”

I have no idea where people come up with these stories and they are spreading to so many news outlets that I just have to speak my mind and clear things up, especially with my fans. I love you all and appreciate your messages, as always.”

Guilty or innocent? You be the judge!

    …fighting for her honor?!? Reminds me of a line from Goucho Marx, “Remember, we’re fighting for this woman’s honor, which is more than she’s ever done!”

    oops, I misquoted. The line is, “Remember, you’re fighting for this woman’s honor, which is probably more than she ever did!”

    Of course, no one delivers it like Groucho:
