Martha Stewart’s puppy has died in a propane explosion at a northeastern Pennsylvania kennel.
Stewart says on her blog she’s “deeply saddened” by the death of her chow, Ghengis Khan, in Friday’s blast at Pazzazz Pet Boarding kennel in the Pocono Mountains.

Jason Mattera offends Rangel: lese majeste.
What is this thing? A quisling? Also at McCain’s, Is Clever S. Logan a Homophobe? The picture is too small for me to tell. Also, not enough of them. Featuring Clever in a bikini.
Hey, you know who’s in our comments? Velociman. He’s got a great blog. He’s got a post up about super-moron Frank Schaeffer. While you’re waiting for Jeff to post, or Darleen, you could do a lot worse than to check it out.
Laugh at the death of a Chow and I will GET YOU.
Ready to serve.
Jihadists don’t like dogs, y’know. I’m just saying.
That’s actually really sad. :o(
What was her chow doing at the kennel? I’m actually a little surprised that she would put him up in one. Doesn’t she have anyone who could look after him while she is away? A friend, neighbor? Nanny?
There’s nothing funny about getting blown up by the Poconos.
I never quite understood the dislike of Martha Stewart. She is a Democrat, but hated by mostly the left. She is a self made girl from blue color Nutley, New Jersey who is completely self made.
As Patrick Stewart once said: “Martha Stewart writes picture books about gracious living. She says there’s not a problem in the world that can’t be solved with a dried floral arrangement. I worship her.”
And only a Jihadist hates dogs.
While I’m sad to hear about it, I am curious as to how a dog kennel blows up.
Sad. Chows are good dogs.
I’m sure the services will be tasteful, yet elegant.
I agree, Jewels, that his boarding seems a little odd. I’m not sure where this Chow came from but I knew the breeder she co-owned Paw-Paw and I think a few others with. Great breeder. The dogs stayed with her quite often.
I would imagine that Martha had Genghis (rather than the breeder having him) and for some reason needed to board him for the weekend. I’m sure she’s second-guessing that decision – it has to really hurt. Just awful.
E-Lin’s dogs were wonderful, sweet-tempered – most excellent Chows. If Genghis is also from E-Lin it’s quite a loss. Chow fanciers are really trying to develop a sounder, better-tempered breed – and Martha Stewart is a big part of that.
I’ve never quite gotten the “Martha Hate” either. Just women being petty and jealous I guess. Any Chow fancier is all right in my book.
Many rural homes and businesses do not have natural gas service but will instead use propane for heating, cooking, and sometime to power backup generators. Or possibly waste incinerators…
Chows? Are those yip-yips?
Because there are dogs, and then there are yip-yips. A yip-yip is not a dog.
“Ready to serve.”
No fillers or articial ingredients.
Chows aren’t yippers. All of the ones I have known have been bad asses.
artificial
I just got my propane tank filled*. Some people say the UPS guys are hot, but they don’t have nothing on the propane folks in my neck of the woods.
*not a euphemism in this context.
“No fillers or articial ingredients.”
Artificial ingredients make me nauseous enough to
blow chowpuke.OMG, that Materra thing is teh awesome. More of this please, Hot Air.
Jason Matterra is my hero for the day.
Memo to Charles Rangel: Hey fuckstick, it’s our money your pissing away so it is our god-damned business.
Greetings:
Now that Ms. Stewart has completed her obligation to the American justice system, shouldn’t she have renamed her Chow (capital “C” for proper names; chow is food) Ghenghis ex-Khan?
Techie-
The same way my old neighbors’ house blew up: propane truck delivery, leak in the system, pilot light on a water heater, phloom.
That said, I noticed the driver only saved the Cairn terrier. Would he perchance be the “Judy Garland” performing at The Buttock nightclub in the Poconos?
Just wonderin’…
Does she pronounce it “gin-ghis” or “ging-gis”? Testifying servicemen want to know.
You know, if Charlie Rangel stiffed someone in his district on a crack-deal, that would be entirely different.
But we’re not drug dealers are we? We could be though.
I love dogs. They’re delicious.
I hate any dog breed with the words doodle or pugle in it.
The rights to the Martha Stewart biopic just got lucrativer I think.
KHAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNN!!!!!!!
(I can’t believe no one had done that yet.)
A Chow, that’s one of those little yappy breeds, right? Like Yorkies or Chihuahuas?
Good. I wouldn’t want anything to happen to a REAL dog.
Becareful throwing rocks Jeff, you may be next:
For a while, zoo keepers tried locking Santino up in the morning so he couldn’t collect ammunition for his assaults, but he remained aggressive. They ultimately decided to castrate him in the autumn last year, but will have to wait until the summer to see if that helps. The chimpanzees are only kept outdoors between April and October and Santino’s special behavior usually occurs in June and July.

And chows are not yip yip dogs. I am not a big chow fan, one redish brown one named Bear comes in my yard every day to take a dump and then leaves. But they are a sizable dog, about 75 lbs or so. They have black mouths and have a shape like a Keeshound.
Chows are unleashed… like Mike Tyson or Tommy Lee. No foo-foo fussy attitudes. Mine would eat McDonalds right out of the bag, no waiting. Wrappers, wrist, anything that was in the way. It’s definitely a good dog for anyone who wants a challenge.
I know many human beings who aren’t capable of planning in advance as well as that chimp.
Vermont Neighbor, YOU have got possibly the pithiest blog on the intartubes.

Why do you keep looking at me?

Fuck you, I hope a chimp rips your nuts off.
Thanks Dan, those are nice words. I’m sad about Martha’s little fuzzface. But chows have love somewhere deep, deep, deep in their souls. Almost at the same gastrointestinal spot as Saddam Hussein. One never seeks out a chow, imo. It just happens, like Saddam happened to us. Rely on a safe fence and secure leash walks. Get used to the wild-eyed look. Actually, I was always surprised Martha had that breed. I guess being a former stockbroker she can handle anything.
Thanks, Dan. Your Dodd-Rangel check is in the mail, Sir!
Honestly, though, V-man, I’m so lazy that I didn’t put you in my reader till this morning. You and Jeff have some of the same panache, old boy. Still . . . thanks for the check! WOOT!
TMZ is on it
The death of anyone’s pet is a very sad thing. I’ve known several chows that were just fuzzy loveballs, not a mean hair on their body anywhere. I currently own a dog that is a mixed breed that is part chow, part black lab. She is just a sweetheart and loves everyone.
So what do you feed such a dog? Purina Chow Chow©?
Buy xanax….
Buy xanax. Xanax. Xanax withdrawls….
