LOS ANGELES - Almost as soon as she was in, Britney Spears is now out of the doghouse with the SPCA.
The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals confirms to Access Hollywood they have dropped their investigation into Spears and her reportedly injured pup.
The SPCA has announced it was looking into reports Spears’s dog had suffered a broken leg.
Spears’ camp put the pooch patrol in touch with the singer’s vet, who confirmed the dog had been properly treated for a mild fracture to one of its legs. Apparently, someone accidentally stepped on the dog when it made its way into one of Spears’s closets.
Last week, the SPCA said they received complaints from people who had witnessed the condition of the dog. However, the reports seem to differ, with some saying the dog had broken its leg and wasn’t being treated while others said the pup’s leg was in a cast.
On August 24, the SPCA sent a representative to the singer's house, but only a housekeeper was home, and since the representative did not have a warrant, he could not actually go inside and see the dog.
The rep asked that Spears contact the SPCA.
