Lauren Conrad, 22, was the marquee name at Tuesday's 9th annual Paws for Style event in New York benefiting the Humane Society and sponsored in part by Animal Fair magazine, which has Conrad on the cover of its summer issue with her rescue dog Chloe in an outfit that Conrad designed. A press release promised Conrad would be among the "celebrity dog walkers" to strut down the catwalk with "dapper celebridogs" wearing "matching one-of-a-kind specially designed outfits." But when the schedule called for Conrad to walk with a dog named Toby at the end of the show, emcee Robert Verdi announced to the crowd, "Lauren Conrad ran for The Hills." Later, Wendy Diamond, founder of Animal Fair magazine, complained to PEOPLE at the event, "This is an event to raise money for homeless animals. It is not an event for Lauren Conrad and her assistant to party in NewYork at the All-Star weekend." Lauren Conrad at 9th Annual Paws For Style Fashion Show in NYC
