Britney Spears Wins Title of Worst Dog Owner

We all knew Britney Spears wasn't going to win any parent of the year awards this year, but today the pop diva is being criticized for her dog owning skills.

Britney has been voted the World's Worst Celebrity Dog Owner for 2006 by the readers of The New York Dog and The Hollywood Dog magazines.

"Britney was the overwhelming choice," said editor Hilary O'Hagan. "She once had three Chihuahuas (Lacy, Lucky and Bit-Bit) and never left home without at least one of them on her arm. As soon as she met K-Fed and had kids they disappeared."

One of the dogs, Lucky, reportedly took an instant dislike to Kevin Federline. "It was either Mr. Federline or Lucky," added Ms. O'Hagan. "Unfortunately Britney chose the wrong dog and the rest is history."

In a September interview with Teen People, K-Fed revealed: "We gave all the dogs to friends of ours. It's just too much with the kids and all these dogs running around all over the place. It just wasn't really working."

Spears beat out her recent BFF, Paris Hilton, who won the tile in 2005 and comes in second in this years poll for "treating her dogs like accessories".

On the flip side, Oprah Winfrey won this year's "World's Best Celebrity Dog Owner" by the magazines' readers. Winfrey is an avid champion of animal shelters, owns five dogs, and popularized the revolutionary canine training methods of Cesar Milan, known as 'The Dog Whisperer,' on her show. Topping out the "Best Owner" list are Tori Spelling, Nicollette Sheridan and Beth Ostrosky, Howard Stern's girlfriend and a national spokesperson for the North Shore Animal League.

    Well,if a dog is constantly attacking a human, you're SUPPOSED to give it away. What was she supposed to do? Kick Federline to the curb? I suppose if it had of been Gwen Stefani or someone else, they wouldny be criticized.
