Lauren Conrad Visits the Vet

After wrapping up work on the set of The Hills earlier in the day, Lauren Conrad headed home to take care of some very important business.

The 22-year-old reality star had to escort her lab/shepherd mix, Chloe, on a trip to the local veterinarian's office for a puppy check-up.

According to an insider commenting on the spectacle, "Chloe was quite the character and seemed rather curious about the cameras."

You can catch Lauren and all of her Hills co-stars back in action with all new episodes beginning March 24th on MTV.
