Kristin Cavallari Announces She Put Down German Shepherd Kona After Health Decline

She called the euthanasia intense, with plans to scatter Kona’s ashes at home.

Overview

  • Cavallari revealed on the Jan. 13 episode of her podcast that she euthanized Kona the day before recording.
  • Kona was nearly 12, with a sharp decline over the past five to six months, and Cavallari spent a week saying goodbye with favorite treats.
  • She said her children took the loss hard, noting her son Camden asked to leave school and broke down in tears.
  • Cavallari adopted Kona as an adult during a period she felt unsafe at home, recalling the dog sleeping on a staircase to watch over the kids.
  • She is awaiting Kona’s cremated remains to spread in the family yard and, though she has two other dogs, says she will wait before getting another German Shepherd.
