A guest at the Bryant Park Hotel got quite a surprise when he returned to his room and found two of tennis star Serena Williams‘ dogs sleeping in his bed.

PageSix quoted a source as saying: “Williams checked into a suite with a terrace, and the guest staying next door to her left his door open a crack. When he returned to his room, he was greeted by Williams’ two dogs sleeping on his bed.”

The dogs apparently jumped the planter box separating the terraces and managed to squeeze into the other guest’s room.

Haha! Can you imagine? He must’ve jumped backwards ten feet!

In the February issue of O magazine, Oprah talks to various celebrities about their “firsts” in life. Serena Williams speaks of her first splurge after winning the U.S. Open for the first time. She was walking down Lexington Avenue in NYC and spotted Jackie in a pet store.

Serena said the cutest thing about Jackie:

She completes me. I don’t know which was a better souvenir, the title or Jackie.”

Serena Williams is denying that a Pit bull that bit a security guard in Palm Beach, FL is hers.

Security guard Michael Norton responded to a report Friday of a Pit bull and a Poodle on the loose in Palm Beach Gardens. According to the police report obtained by TMZ, Norton says when arrived on the scene, the Poodle approached him as he was getting out of his vehicle. At that point, Norton says the Pit bull immediately ran toward him and began barking, as if to protect the poodle. The Pit bull then bit him in the left rear, but did not puncture the skin. Norton says in the report that his wallet, which was in his left pocket, protected him from injury.

The Pit bull was not wearing a collar, but the Poodle was. When checked, the information led police to Serena Williams. According to the police report, the tennis star said the Pit bull did not belong to her, it belongs to a friend named David Tomossini. Now here’s where the pit stop occurs…

When TMZ contacted Animal Care and Control in Palm Beach, a rep for the agency confirmed that Williams is the registered owner of two dogs; a Jack Russell terrier… and a pit bull. They also said there is no record of a David Tomossini owning any animals whatsoever.

The “fun facts” section of Serena’s official website quotes the tennis ace: “I have two dogs “Jackie” a Jack Russell Terrier and “Bambi” a pit bull.”

More info will follow as info is provided.

Here in Georgia, summer is coming to an end, the leaves are starting to change ever so slightly and I’ve been sleeping without my ceiling fan on. No humidity on a Georgia night? Yeah, summer is OVA! With that being said, it’s a good time to take a peek at the dogs and their celebrity owners at the beach over the summer…
