One More Reason to Hate John & Kate Plus Eight.. Now, it's Minus Two!

Source: www.dogtime.com

I was never much of a fan of the TLC reality show "Jon & Kate Plus 8," but I recall that they added a couple of dogs to their brood at one point - two beautiful German Shepherds that seemed to enjoy roaming the family's expansive grounds.

Well, the breakup of the marriage between Jon and Kate Gosselin turned out not to be a good thing for Shoka and Nala, who were returned to their breeder in September.

At the time, Kate Gosselin said "They'll come back, but for now I needed a break." The Allentown (Pa.) Morning Call reports that Kate also said she "never intended to give them back," but the dogs "needed more than I could give them."

Hmm. I don't mean to sound skeptical, but I wonder whether the dogs were little more than a storyline for the TV show. Give the family a couple of dogs, let them wreak havoc on the house for a week or two, then slip them into a few background scenes as the series moves along.

I hope not. But as USA Today blogger Anne Godlasky points out, on the video showing the Gosselins originally picking out the dogs, Kate says, "I could go my whole life without having a dog."

Hi, Did the vet also check the feet that would be your best sourse for information? My dogs tend to lick & chew at their feet a lot also. We've never noticed anything wrong with them. Hope everything is fine.
