EXCLUSIVE: Jon Gets Rid Of His Dogs, Blames Kate
Posted on Sep 16, 2009 @ 05:40PM
Okay animal lovers, divorcing a spouse is one thing, but getting rid of your dogs is quite another. Jon Gosselin is sending his two German Shepherd's back to the breeder as part of the fallout from his divorce from Kate.
While the eight Gosselin children are staying in the family's Wernersville, PA home, their parents are splitting time there, trying to avoid disrupting the kids' lives but also not wanting to be around each other.
Now, Shoka and Nala, the family dogs are being discarded and Jon has been telling pals it's Kate's fault because she won't take care of them when he's not at the house.
"Jon blames Kate for having to give up the dogs," a source close to the situation told RadarOnline.com exclusively. "Of course, these days Jon blames Kate for just about everything."

Jon has given several interviews recently and been brutal on Kate, saying he "despises" her and loves girlfriend Hailey Glassman more
than he ever loved his wife.
More on Kate’s relationship with her bodyguard
He's also in the middle of another scandal, with his kids' babysitter, Stephanie Santoro now coming forward and confirming she had a sexual relationship with Jon - a fact first reported by RadarOnline.com.
But Jon's attempts to blame Kate for getting rid of the dog simply isn't fair, one source told RadarOnline.com. The dogs have always been Jon's and while Kate was willing to do whatever she had to she simply can't handle them and Jon didn't make any other arrangements for them to be taken care of. He now lives in an apartment in New York City and never considered getting a place where he could keep his dogs, the source told us.
"Kate's being gracious about the situation, she's not going to blame Jon," said the source.
Jon wants to end war with Kate
Earlier in the summer Jon caused an uproar when he made comments to People.com about the dogs. "Those kids beat them up, climb on them, pull their tails, bite at them, drag them around and everything you can imagine not to do to an animal, they've done."
The Humane Society of Berks County, Pa., where the Gosselins live, received numerous complaints about the family and animal cruelty, prompting Jon to release a statement to teh HSBC. "I would like to clarify a recent statement I made regarding my family's two German Shepherd puppies, Shoka and Nala. The statement - if taken literally and out of context - could be misinterpreted and I'd like to set the record straight. We understand the esponsibilities of being good dog owners. Whenever my kids are with Shoka and Nala, everyone is carefully supervised to ensure that no one - dog or child - is injured. Shoka and Nala are loyal companions who we consider members of our family. We would never do anything to hurt them, and treat them with the respect and love that they deserve."

Funny that he claims kate will not take care of the dogs, I recall her brushing the dogs before leaving the home for a few days during one of the first shows after the big announcement! Sounds like he just does not want to deal with the dogs

Some people should not take on the responsibility of caring for any living creature. Be it man or beast. And they said "girls just want to have fun."

Have to admit I refused to watch the video.
The picture of those 2 beautiful dogs in the crate looking out the back
is just plain sad. J&K are the epitome of the disposable society.
The only thing left to discard are the kids.

OMG how can you do that to those innocent dogs. I live in Florida and have been looking for a pure bred GSD...send them down here.

Jon quit blaming everything on Kate and take responsibility I didn't start off being favorable towards Kate or Jon. But the more I hear about Jon - his whining and blaming other people for his problems - the more I dislike him.
