> Nick Jonas has a new best friend: a golden retriever named Elvis. The pup was a birthday gift from his family, according to the band’s rep. The youngest member of the Jonas Brothers band, who turned 16 on Tuesday, named the pup for two of his favorite musicians, Elvis Costello and Elvis Presley. Though the band has been busy working on its upcoming film, Jonas Brothers 3-D Concert Movie (which will open Feb. 22, 2009), Nick still made time for Elvis on Tuesday, taking him for a walk around his L.A. neighborhood.

> Teen pop star NICK JONAS’ 16th birthday present puppy came with a surprise of its own – the pooch is riddled with parasites. Jonas was handed the Golden Retriever pup, he has named Elvis, on Tuesday (Sept. 16, 2008) as a gift from his famous siblings, and he has been spotted out walking his new best friend near his Hollywood home. But he quickly discovered the responsibilities of owning a dog when he had to seek out a vet on Wednesday morning (Sept. 17, 2008). The Jonas Brothers star cleared top Hollywood animal doctor Jeff Werber’s schedule after discovering the cute puppy has ticks. One of the vets’ regulars, who was awaiting a session with Werber, says, “We were told we’d all have to wait a little longer because a celebrity was bringing his dog in. It turned out to be Nick Jonas, who came in through a private back entrance. I gather his Golden Retriever has a tick problem and Nick was coming in for medication.” [SOURCE: ContactMusic]

> Teen pop sensations The Jonas Brothers have set young female hearts fluttering, by revealing they would rather date fans than fellow celebrities…
…The revelation will confuse some – as Kevin Jonas recently told British newspaper The Sun the band were too busy to date, and would never consider going out with a fan. He said, “We wouldn’t really want a girl we dated to be a fan.” “We love to date but it’s almost impossible with our schedule.
