Tori Spelling's pug to appear on VH1 show

Want to know what it's like to be rich, famous, and canine? Then turn into VH1's new show, so noTORIous.

The show is about being Tori Spelling, or at least a reasonable facsimile thereof. Tori is sending up her image as a spoiled, rich girl by starring as... a spoiled rich girl.

Loni Anderson stars as Spelling's on-screen mother, Kiki, but the part of Tori's dog will be played by Tori's real dog, pug Mimi La Rue. She is billed as "the most fashionable (and indolent) pug west of the Mississippi." (Indolent? Hold on a sec while I get my dictionary.)
