That is the one really redeeming feature of this rather gruff and uncaring about people, woman. She loved animals, especially dogs, GOD BLESS her and rotten eggs to those who have no right to say what she did with her fortune. I admire her greatly and have for countless years...These complainers didn't bother to mention that she also gave unlimited amounts of money/support to many Childrens causes...

Her will was overturned. Only two million goes to her pet. I should be so lucky. I think the rest went to charity so I hope it's pet charities

Dianne,
I could B wrong, but I think her own dog got 2 million;
dog welfare groups got 8 billion. At least that's my understanding. All I can say is, "Yippie!!!"

Jabber, is that the new reality show?

Anyone find out where Helmsley's money went?

Anno,
I watched "The Greatest American Dog" last night. I loved it! It's like a canine parody of "American Idol"; but I like the dogs better. They're so cute!
gims,
All I know is what they said on Good Morning America, "8 Billion went to the care and welfare of dogs!"

Chatty,
Leona Helmsley needed an attitude adjustment. On the other hand, I know some seemingly sweet folks' who don't like dogs. I'm not sure I trust people that don't like dogs????

Oh Jabber, I exit from my life fast and forever, anyone that doesn't like animals, especially dogs or cats. I have no trust in anyone not liking animals. Also in anyone my animals don't like. I trust their judgement completely.
