Paris Hilton denies treating dogs like accessories to fit her outfit after the story circulating she was knocked back for buying a new puppy. According to reports, a pet store in LA refused to sell a dog to Paris because store assistant thought she was going to use it for a photo shoot. "I read [that I was] walking by some puppies for sale, and demanding that I be given a Yorkie puppy to be an accessory for a photo shoot," People quoted her as writing on her MySpace celebrity blog. "I wasn't looking for a new pet. I wasn't even at a photo shoot that day," Hilton insists. "Puppies are not accessories or toys and I love my own pets dearly. I treat them as if they were my children," she added. Paris concluded, "These stories have gotten out of control."
