From the Daily News:
“Leona Helmsley’s pampered pooch “Trouble,” who inherited $12 million from the real estate mogul, has died at the age of 12. The high-maintenance pooch had a life of luxury from the git-go. She was bought at a Kennel Club pet shop on Lexington Ave. and traveled home in a Mercedes-Benz stretch limo, a source said. “Codie bought her to help Leona get over her grief over Harry’s death,” the source told the Daily News. The luxe life continued, as Trouble accompanied Helmsley via private jet to her homes in Arizona and Florida, her 21-room Connecticut mansion Dunnellen Hall, and Helmsley’s duplex penthouse with swimming pool at the Park Lane Hotel on Central Park South. Helmsley, who cut two grandchildren out of her will and evicted her son’s widow after his death, was often seen cuddling the canine, which was always impeccably dressed.” – read more at the Daily News
