Pet Celebrity Scandals - Courtney Love Dogs: a Pomeranian named Princess Pep and Ronnie

Fun Facts: Courtney was devastated after the death of her late husband, Kurt Cobain, and she quickly spiraled downward in the public eye. More recently, she has gotten her act together and is happily spending time with her daughter, Frances Bean, and her dogs.

Scandal: Courtney's previous Pomeranian died in 2002 because it ate one of her breast implants. Through a publicist, Love explained to the New York Post that she had the implants removed some years ago, but kept them as souvenirs. She's not sure what was in them, because "they were bootleg implants from Mexico." She was devastated over the loss.

She came under fire again after she failed to collect her pet dog Lloyd from the vet -- after dropping him off in March 2005. According to sources, Love took the 13-year-old German Shepherd mix to California's Beverly Hills Small Animal Hospital after he suffered a stroke, and she left him there. Star magazine had published a contact number for readers interested in adopting Lloyd. Since she has not been spotted with Lloyd since, we can only hope that he's now in a happy home.

What a horrible creepy person. If you don't want to bother with a sick pet, don't get one at all. Or at least own up to the fact that you can't handle the situation. Don't just abandon the poor thing. People like this, who could probably afford the care this animal needs, but shirk their responsibility are the worst kind of scum. I'm sorry, but that's my humble opinion.
