Danny Aiello and Richard Belzer (who both held onto Richard’s dog, Bebe) were at the Comedy at the Edge function yesterday in New York.

Last Chance for Animals along with Carole Raphaelle Davis, actress and author of The Diary of Jinky, Dog of a Hollywood Wife, is getting her Hollywood dog-loving friends together to protest puppy mills and encourage dog adoption on the biggest puppy buying day of the year.

Law & Order actor, Richard Belzer and his adopted dog, Bébe, is one of the celebrities scheduled to show his support. There will also be testimonials from citizens with their dogs who have been duped by puppy stores into buying a sick puppy.

Chris DeRose, President & Founder, Last Chance for Animals had this to say:

We will be in front of Posh Puppy, a new pet store in Beverly Hills, encouraging people to ADOPT - not buy and to educate the public on puppy mills. Stores like Posh Puppy in Beverly Hills and Encino, The Puppy Store in West Hollywood, Puppy & Me in Sherman Oaks and the recently scrutinized Pets of Bel Air all get their dogs from puppy mills (mass breeding facilities known for their squalid conditions). California Law states that breeder information must be available to a would-be buyer. All you have to do is go and take a look at those breeding facilities — I haven’t found a single case where the breeder hasn’t actually been a puppy mill. There are over 2 million puppy mill puppies sold every year in this country. These facilities will continue to flourish and breed animals that are prone to severe health problems, genetic defects and behavioral issues unless we put a stop to the source of the problem; puppy sales from pet stores and the Internet. These puppies sell for between $1000 & $4000. The best way to get a happy and healthy puppy is adopt one and save a life.”

Core Club staffers flipped out when Richard Belzer brought his tiny poodle-fox terrier mix, Bebe, as his date to Monday’s dinner and a screening of the surveillance camera flick Look, hosted by the Creative Coalition.

Belzer said of the peaceful pooch,

The manager came over and told me the dog had to leave. He’s harmless, I bring him everywhere with me, and he sleeps with me every night,”

Belzer rescued Bebe in France more than a year ago. The Law & Order star wanted to see Look so badly, director Adam Rifkin offered to miss the screening and walk the dog around the block for the duration. But Belzer made his driver come back early and sit with the pup in the car outside.

Uhhhhhhhhh, we don’t think so! SplashNews has pics of Robin Williams carrying a dog named Pepe yesterday in New York. We’re under the impression that’s Richard Belzer’s dog, Bebe who happened to be with Robin at the time and seems fitting to us.

We thought for a long time Richard’s dog was named Django but we were corrected not long ago so we hope that’s right.

We’re waiting for confirmation from Robin’s publicist but we’re 99.9% sure we’re right. At least this time
