Always the responsible pet owner, Rachel Bilson was busy tending to her pet pooch Thurmen Mermen in Toluca Lake, California on Tuesday afternoon (March 9).

The “Jumper” cutie happened to be paying a visit to a friend’s house, as paparazzi caught her toting her canine companion in her arms following the midday outing.

Meanwhile, Miss Bilson’s rep recently spoke up to nix the seemingly always-present pregnancy rumors after Rachel was spotted heading into a doctor’s office over the past weekend in a loose-fitting raincoat.

Telling that the former “OC” star and her fiance Hayden Christensen aren’t expecting, Rachel’s spokesperson simply said that there’s “absolutely no truth to Rachel being pregnant.”
