Guess who threw a hissy fit over walking a dog….yes, you guessed right, it’s Lauren Conrad! New York Magazine is reporting that Lauren was a less than polite guest at their Humane Society and Animal Fair magazine’s dog-fashion show.

For the Humane Society and Animal Fair magazine’s dog-fashion show at Area last night, celebrities and socialites were asked to coordinate outfits with a pooch (either their own or a rescue dog) and strut down the runway together. The outfits would be auctioned on eBay to raise money for charity. Lauren Conrad was flown out first-class by the Humane Society and Animal Fair to close the show, but, in a dramatic twist of events, refused to walk.

Conrad didn’t appear to dig the scene from the get-go. When she emerged on the red carpet wearing a belted red dress from her own floundering clothing line, the sweaty mass of paparazzi and random fans erupted into a thundering roar. “What’s up with you and Heidi? Did you cry when you heard about Audrina’s nude photos?” a man yelled.

“What kind of dog is it?” one reporter asked about the blue-and-red-outfitted dog in Conrad’s arms. She looked over at her publicist helplessly, unable to answer. A few steps later, Conrad accidentally slammed the pooch into the lens of a video camera. Hard. (The dog was fine.)

Conrad and her posse headed for the exit the moment the show ended. We confronted her, Heidi-style, at the door, but she declined to comment. “She’s got a bit of an attitude,” one PR person working the event whispered to us.

Wendy Diamond, the editor-in-chief of Animal Fair magazine, who invited Conrad that evening, was annoyed. “Her publicist didn’t tell her it was a fashion show,” Diamond said. “That’s what she said. I just think it’s really rude. [The Humane Society] spent probably $10,000 in bringing her here. If you’re going to fly here first-class and get a suite at a hotel for you and your assistant, then that’s what you deal with. There’s no cats here, so we didn’t need any catfights.”
