Aparently Leona Helmsley's Malt Trouble got into some himself....

LEONA DOG SPOILS MEAL
April 20, 2005 -- LEONA Helmsley's pint-sized pooch, Trouble, is living up to her name. The 6-year-old Maltese, who's allowed to run around unleashed at the Room With a View restaurant at Helmsley's Park Lane Hotel, is accused of terrorizing a doggie-phobic diner.
Aladdin Atassi tells PAGE SIX that he got up to leave the eatery last Sunday because Trouble kept sniffing his legs under his table, despite his complaints to the restaurant's staff. "Then it got between me and the door and started snapping and barking at me and trying to bite me," Atassi said. Atassi, a Texan who is staying at the Park Lane with his grandmother for their annual theater trip, said he lodged a complaint with a manager. "He told me the dog's owner owned the hotel and there was nothing he could do, so I called the city Health Department," Atassi said.
This isn't the first time that tiny Trouble — who wears pink ribbons in her hair — has been accused of bad behavior. Park Lane staffer Zamfira Sfara alleged in court papers in January that Trouble "viciously" bit her and other employees. "Trouble is a loving, friendly dog," Helmsley spokesman Howard Rubenstein insisted. "I'm sorry that Mr. Atassi misunderstood the dog's effort to cozy up to him. He and his grandmother are invited to have lunch or dinner at the hotel as Leona's personal guests."
