SNOOP DOGGY'S DOGS

Originally posted Friday March 26, 1999 12:00 AM EST

Neighbors won't miss Snoop Doggy Dog and his canine brood. Residents of Claremont, Calif., about 30 miles east of Los Angeles, have complained for years that the rapper, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, failed to control his stable of pit bulls and Rottweilers. Humane Society and Claremont police records include 44 allegations since 1994 of Broadus's dogs fighting, barking all night or trapping neighbors in their homes, according to the local Inland Valley Daily Bulletin. Now the barking's a thing of the past. The rapper has moved to an exclusive gated community some 20 miles away in Diamond Bar, where he has built a high-security compound for the canines.
