Kate Gosselin and The Dog Mystery

Does Kate Gosselin still have her German Shepherds? That's the questions some of her twitter followers may be asking. Photos or sightings of the family dog, Shoka, have raised concerns that the dog either died or was given away.

The last known photos were in late October until just recently on December 17th. The latest pic comes with the caption from Kate, "Aw my furry one just came in for the night...photo by Mady; cute pose thanks to Cara (I was told to tweet this)."

Allegations of animal abuse rose earlier this year when a tell-all-book by Robert Hoffman, titled "Kate Gosselin: How She Fooled the World" was blocked by lawyers from TLC and Kate's own lawyers on the basis of copyright infringement. Hoffman alleged that Kate would leave the dogs in cages placed in the rear of the house without food and water for hours at a time.

Kate Gosselin has not acknowledged Hoffman's book directly nor any allegations of animal abuse.
