Contrary to a report on celebrity gossip website TMZ, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have not adopted a pit bull puppy dog.
The barely-newsworthy story, in which the writer accuses the couple of bad parenting, appeared on TMZ on Tuesday (September 25), and reported that the family had added a pit bull dog called Lennie to its growing brood.
The story alleges that TMZ "caught Brad in New York with Lennie, the Jolie-Pitt’s brand new, white pit bull puppy. While the dog is certainly a cutie, adopting a juvenile pup may not be ideal for homes with young children… What on earth are they thinking?"
TheCelebrityTruth.com contacted Pitt’s representative, Cindy Guagenti, who confirmed that the story is "completely not true".
"It maybe a new puppy his makeup artist just got," Guagenti says, "and if so, it’s not an American Pitbull."

I really cannot believe that the rags have not yet reported on how many times each of them fart!

I saw the video and some person who worked on the lot was walking the puppy. The puppy was very cute, the closest Pitt got to the dog was when the woman knocked on his trailer. He got out, walked to a car and she kept walking. Someone watching made a joke about the dog being a new addition and called him Lennie, Pitt looked at the guy with a “what are you talking about” look.

Pit bulls make wonderful family pets when they are raised in loving homes.
I have no doubt that if Brangelina adopted a pit bull, it would be a model dog citizen.
