Katherine Heigl Adds Another Pup to Her Family!

PetSugar — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 11:30:34 -0800

Uh-oh, looks like someone might be in the dog house after all! Katherine Heigl was spotted taking home a new puppy named Oscar, and adding to her already large furry family - in quite the stylish carrier.

Although Katherine recently told Us Magazine that hubby Josh would "kill her" if she brought home another pooch, I know where she's coming from. I can't resist the puppy breath either!

Now with Oscar as part of the pack of pups to round up on their walks, they're sure to keep the couple in tip-top shape!

In the Spotlight: No More Pups or Heigl's in the Doghouse!

PetSugar — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 10:50:26 -0700

Katherine Heigl may have a big heart . . . but her home reached pet capacity! We've already spotted the actress loading her dogs into the car and making friends with others, but she recently told Usmagazine.com that Josh Kelley would kill her if she brought home another pooch since her husband "married into a five-dog household!" The mystery's solved . . . five! (I was right.) Enough gloating, back to business. The actress attended an opening for animal-loving Peter Alexander's LA flagship on Wednesday and let one of her pooches walk the red carpet with her! Although she did purchase this Miniature Schnauzer from a breeder 11 years ago, her furry family now includes shelter dogs. Heigl added:

In the last eight years, I have suddenly started to realize how great the need is for animal rescue. It would break your heart to hear the stories. It makes you feel like there are no other options than to rescue from shelters because most of them are kill shelters.

I'm guessing this is not lil Romeo's first time in front of a camera because he was hamming it up. My favorite pictures are the ones when he yawns (red carpets = booorrring) and she mock yawns right back at him!

Found! Katherine and Josh's Tri-Fold Pet Ramp

PetSugar — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 10:30:23 -0800

When you've got a gaggle of pooches, it's necessary to load them in and out of the car quickly and safely. Katherine Heigl and Josh Kelley choose the Trifold Pet Ramp ($129.99) to get their pets ready to go in and out of their SUV. This popular ramp easily folds into thirds and can be carried like a briefcase between cars and houses. As a bonus, if you've got a semi-willing pooch, it holds up to 200 pounds if you need to climb up and show him how it's done.

27 Dresses . . . and Too Many Dogs to Count

PetSugar — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 11:00:00 -0800

Katherine Heigl and hubby Josh Kelley certainly have a pack of pooches to take care of! Three of their pups took an adventure yesterday to the vet's office in Los Angeles. Now, even though I thought she had four dogs, I keep stumbling upon a very recent quote where she says she has five. Hmmm, I smell a mystery.

Just so I won't be the only one unable to follow the picture trail of her dog ownership, let's go back in time, shall we? Now, off the bat, I remembered she was a judge for the nationwide Old Navy mascot search and I found a magazine blurb describing the announcement of the contest (on April 28, 2006) that said she owned three dogs including a Shih Tzu named Maggie and that she recently adopted a German Shepherd mix named Anderson. Sweet, I thought. Three dogs down, two to go.

Buuuuuut . . . flash forward to Feb. 19, 2007 when she appeared on Martha Stewart to talk about the fund-raising work she was doing with Pedigree. While on air, she shows that black-and-white pic and describes her pets "from the top left: Weezer, Stella, Romeo, and Piper (a rescue)." Eeks! No Maggie and no Anderson. Four pups down, two missing, and one to go.

I'm no stranger to changing a pup's name, but even in black and white, that dog looked pretty dark to be the same "Anderson" from that earlier article. And, while it seemed possible that Maggie could have passed away, I couldn't imagine Anderson being gone as well. But, since I've seen photos of a black pooch called Anderson, I was at a loss, and beginning to think it was possible that Anderson and Piper were in fact the same dog. (If you're as interested in solving this mystery as I am, read more.)

Nope, that would be too easy. I was still banking on hearing her name off dogs as the most legit source I've got. As I looked back through photos in the gallery, I was once again thrown for a loop. Check out her hubby holding the leash of two large dogs, which bear uncanny resemblances to Piper and Anderson. Because Maggie's last appearance (that I could find) was in early 2006, I was more willing to bet this pooch was out of the picture than I was to deny the photograph.

So, I'm gonna venture a guess and say that she in fact does have five dogs (Weezer, Stella, Romeo, Piper, and Anderson) and assume that the black dog is Piper and the shepherd-looking pup is Anderson. If Anderson resided with Josh before they were married (she could have "gifted" him like the pup she adopted for co-star/ BFF TR Knight), he wouldn't technically be her dog when she was on Martha, and, now that she's newly married – they're up to a collective five. I'm hoping, if she does in fact decide to star in Lost and Found, that she'll once again share and confirm her pooches' names. Until then, we'll just have to come to our own conclusions!

The sunshine has returned as Katherine Heigl and Josh Kelley bring a gaggle of pups to accompany them on errands around L.A. yesterday. A well-known dog lover, Katherine has lent her smiling face to many animal-related causes like the Pedigree Adoption Drive. With pit stops at the vet's office, Fast Frame, and Mustard Seed Cafe, the newlyweds were smiling the whole way and the whole day.

Katherine Embarrassed After Negotiations Go Public

PopSugar — Fri, 02 Mar 2007 10:03:08 -0800

Katherine is not at all pleased that Touchstone decided to go public with their side of her contract negotiations. After rumors circulated this week that she wanted more money and had dropped out of negotiations, Touchstone released a statement saying she was under contract and wasn't going anywhere. Now Katherine has responded and it's clear she's not happy. Here's more:

"I am embarrassed that this has become a public matter and disappointed that Touchstone felt it necessary to divulge private employment information," Heigl, 28, said in a statement Thursday.

"I had hoped I would be able to deal with this issue confidentially with my bosses. I dropped out of the renegotiation simply because I wanted to treat myself with the respect I was not getting from them."

But Grey's fans will be happy to know that Heigl, who plays Izzie Stevens on the ABC hit, still loves her character. "No matter how unhappy I am about their decision to respond to this publicly, I continue to be passionate about and committed to this character," she said.

Sounds like things are going to be a little awkward at the office on Monday. Still, Touchstone said that they're going to be giving Katherine more money so hopefully this will all blow over and things will once again settle down on the set of Grey's. We're just happy that Izzie will be staying on the show, Seattle Grace wouldn't be the same without her!
