Thanks For Nothing, Paris Hilton

California has more Chihuahuas than it can handle, and experts say Hollywood is to blame. Chihuahuas make up 30 percent - or more - of the dog populations at many California animal shelters. There's suspicion that fans took to the tiny breed to imitate Chihuahua-toting celebrities like Paris Hilton and Miley Cyrus. People then apparently change their minds.

I'm always against "fad" dogs. I was very concerned that the Puggle would end up swamping shelters. It could still happen.
