It wouldn't be bad if, when a man comes home, he'd run to his woman with his tail wagging.

This sort of excitement is something I've always missed in a man to be honest.

Megan Fox has fiance Brian Austin Green on such a short leash that she’s forced him to give up his best friend - his beloved dog Macy!

“Megan claimed she felt threatened by Macy, but that dog was a sweetheart. She wouldn’t hurt a fly,” divulged an insider.

“Brian adored Macy and refused to give her up for the longest time, but Megan nagged him about it until he finally gave in. He was crushed.”

[Brian] adopted 3-year-old Macy, a mastiff-pit bull mix, when she was 3 months old - around the same time he and Megan, 22, began living together, according to sources.

After adopting the dog, 35 year-old Brian enrolled her in rigorous training courses at the Hollywood Dog Training School…

“Macy was really mellow and well-behaved,” the source added. “Whenever Brian went out of town he’d board Macy at the training school.

“The trainers were shocked when Brian’s assistant came in one day and said Brian was being forced to give Macy up for adoption because Megan didn’t get along with her.”

Right after Brian gave Macy up for adoption, Megan adopted two tiny dogs.

A flight attendant claims Jennifer Lopez's guard dog chomped her leg on a plane trip two years ago, and now she wants to take a $5 million bite out of the singer's pocketbook. Lisa Wilson, 40, filed a suit in Brooklyn Federal Court Thursday, alleging the attack caused her to fall and suffer back injuries that prevent her from working anymore.

The dog-bites-woman tale began July, 3, 2006, when NetJets, a private airline company, assigned Wilson to work a flight taking J.Lo to Burbank Airport in California, the suit says.

Wilson says Lopez boarded a Gulfstream IV jet at Republic Airport in Farmingdale, L.I., with Floyd, a German shepherd described in the manifest as "a well-behaved guard dog."

Just in case, Wilson, of Mary Esther, Fla., says in the court papers, Lopez gave her some instructions on how to act around Floyd.

But the suit alleges that 90 minutes into the flight, Wilson walked past Floyd, and he responded by "attacking her and biting her pant leg."

In an attempt to get away, Wilson says she "twisted and fell," injuring her lower back so badly she had to undergo surgery last year and no longer can work - "at great economic loss."

Us Weekly reports that the Lopez and Anthony might still be wrapping 4-month-old Max and Emme in $100 Melissa Masse blankets, but they’re doing so without the help of nannies. The magazine confirmed with Lopez’s rep that the couple is still without outside help, even while traveling abroad. A Lopez confidant also told Us, “The whole 75-pieces-of-Louis-Vuitton-luggage thing is just not happening now. … Being a mother has completely changed Jennifer.”

That’s a good thing: A source told Scoop that before the twins were born, Lopez had picked up a strange travel habit. “Not even the first-class lounge was good enough for her. She kept slipping into a door inside the lounge, so people thought it was like a special VIP area,” said a traveler who witnessed the behavior on many occasions.

“Turns out, it was just a storage closet. Give her credit for wanting to be left alone, but hiding in a storage closet? That's a little extreme.”

A solo Blake Lively has to stop and get out of a Gossip Girls cast van because her dog “Penny” urinated on her. Blake was traveling through midtown Manhattan when she suddenly had to stop so that Penny could finish the rest of her business outside. Blake’s dress had urine all down the front but her assistant quickly helped to cover her by handing her a large shopping bag so that she could shield herself from the public. Blake was going with the all natural look as she was not wearing any makeup and pimples were visible on her face and neck. Filming for season 2 of Gossip Girl begins in NYC on Thursday.

THE Puppy Store on Melrose Avenue in LA deserves an ASPCA award. Over the weekend, spies said, Paris Hilton was on her way to a photo shoot and "wanted a puppy in the picture with her so it would look cuter." Hilton waltzed in and tried to buy a Yorkie but was rebuffed by an employee who said it was clearly "an impulse buy." Hilton, who has a menagerie of neglected animals, went "ballistic," we're told. "She started screaming, 'I love my puppies! I want my baby!'" - but to no avail. The store had no comment.

A hotel spy tells us: "Every time Paris saw something she liked, like a woman's dress, she would ask how much it was. That included a cheetah she saw at an animal park. She asked how much it was and said, 'If I bought a cheetah, would it run away from me or could I keep it?'"

Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons' ex-wife Kimora Lee Simmons wants to honor her late dog by turning the pet's remains into a diamond. The Baby Phat model and fashion designer is in mourning after 18-year-old bitch Zoe's recent death.

But she is contemplating celebrating Zoe's life with a new piece of jewelry.

She tells People.com, "You have to... grieve. It's okay to take time and say this meant something to my life and (to) honor it. There is a company that makes diamonds out of your loved ones. They make diamonds from a little of the carbon from the ash, so I might do that. I might turn her into a diamond."

[Nicole Richie] recently bought a canine tuxedo for her mutt, Honeychild, and a bridesmaid dress for her Pomeranian, Foxxy Cleopatra, from tony Santa Monica pet store The Wagging Tail. She wants the pooches to walk down the aisle with her when she weds her baby daddy.

Junkie Pete Doherty is snapped appearing to give his kitten crack — from a mini-pipe he made specially for it.

Sickened pals who leaked the picture claimed the warped rocker regularly gets the pet smashed.

One added: “In Pete’s mind it is the only one who understands him now.”

The Babyshambles frontman’s cat Dinger — named after a slang term for a syringe — had five kittens in April.

The friend said: “One in particular has borne the brunt of his drug abuse. Pete thinks it’s hilarious to get it wasted. He even made a special mini-crack pipe out of a bottle so it can get the maximum hit. But the kitten is starting to get really bad withdrawal symptoms. It has lost some of its balance and takes huge risks jumping over things that are too high. It thinks it can fly. It’s really distressing to see.”

"I took a nasty fall trying not to hurt my dog. I bruised myself on my arm, my chest, my waist all the way down to my hip. All from my little chubby Tulip. Tulip has no remorse. She just stared at me."

"Paula went to the doctor and she did break her nose, but she's moving on and doing great. She looks terrific. If you didn't know she broke her nose, you'd never guess anything happened to her. She is in pain. No question about that. But you'd never know anything happened to her. There are no bandages. She's got some bruises on her."

I used to play football in a park in front of my house but I had to give it up because every time I bent over to do up my shoelaces there was a stray dog called Sandy that used to try to mate with me. My girlfriend had a pet dog but we had to give it to her mother in the end because of this problem.
