Nicky Hilton wants fans to know that Casey Johnson's dogs -- Zoe (a poodle) and Elvis (a Yorkie) -- are alive and well.
TMZ.com reported Friday that the dogs -- which Hilton retrieved from the Los Angeles home of Johnson's purported fiance Tila Tequila earlier this week -- got checkups at a veterinarian in Los Angeles and have been released to Johnson's family.

In a series of Twitter posts, Tila (real name: Tila Nguyen) 28, had accused Hilton and actress Bijou Phillips of taking the dogs in order to euthanize and bury them with Johnson.
Johnson was found dead at the age of 30 on Jan. 4 (a cause of death has not been determined).
