Martha Stewart, whose Chow was killed in a propane explosion at a Pennsylvania kennel (above) on Friday, has posted more about the tragic accident on her blog. She writes:

"I just spoke to Karen Tracy of Pazzazz Chows and she gave me the following update. In all, Karen lost twelve of her own dogs and five boarder dogs. Three of her chows are at the veterinarian’s in intensive care. Timothy Kleinhagen, the heroic driver of the propane truck, remains in critical condition and is facing lengthy hospital time. The cause of the blast has yet to be determined.

Karen explained that dogs are her life and despite this horrific tragedy, she remains hopeful and optimistic. Her plan is to rebuild her kennels and continue on as a breeder of chows and a boarder of other dogs. In fact, she has been receiving many calls from loyal clients begging her to do so. Karen has spent the past fifteen years building her champion line of chows, producing six generations of the breed."

Stewart goes on to say that Karen Tracy's home was also badly damaged. She and her mother have been staying at a relative's since the accident. A local credit union has established a fund for donations.
