Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson Rescue Another Shelter Dog

"I'm just sort of obsessed with rescuing the pooches," Kristen says. Bravo!

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are two young actors who love to go on talk shows and not talk about their relationship, and that leaves ... what? Often, seething anger and resentment toward the host. But at other times -- dogs! These are the times we're concerned about. These are the good times. 

The two often speak of their love for their adopted dog Bear, who Pattinson rescued from a high-kill Louisiana shelter "on his sixth of his seven days." Kristen considers the dog her child and usually spends all the time in interviews talking about him and not about Pattinson. Sometimes the hosts, with a wistful sigh, imagine that she is really talking about Pattinson when she is talking about Bear. 

Yesterday, Kristen dropped a bombshell on Live With Kelly and Michael. They got a new dog! Not only is Bernie another rescue, but he's an older dog, not a puppy, which adds more fuel to our theory that Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are the best dog owners in A-list Hollywood. 

When Kristen talks about saving dogs from high-kill shelters, people listen. When she pulls her hair, stares at the floor, and says into her fist (she's a bit awkward during these things, no?) that she considers her dog her child, people take note. 

"I'm just sort of obsessed with rescuing the pooches," she said to Kelly. 

"They're really very different," she said, explaining the two dogs. "I feel like I've raised Bear, whereas Bernie, we got her when she was like four, five -- we're not positive -- but she feels like my roommate. She's just like living in my house."

Referring to the decision to adopt the dog, she said of Bernie, "She was very emotionally manipulative. She really milked it. Then I got her home and she was like 'I have arrived. I am fine.'"

Bernie took over the household right away, Kristen said: "You know, she was very comfortable instantly, like taking Bear's stuff. It was like 'You need to slow your roll, girl. You need to watch it.'"

“Accidental” Headbutt by Dog Sends Martha Stewart to Emergency Room

Martha smiling with Francesca and Sharkey. Martha's lip and Francesca's head may never be the same after their little collision with each other... Martha smiling with Francesca and Sharkey. Martha's lip and Francesca's head may never be the same after their little collision with each other...

Martha Stewart’s beloved French bulldog, Francesca, accidentally (or at least that’s the official story — see the last half of this post for a possible canine ulterior motive) whammed her hard head into Martha’s lip when Martha went to whisper good-bye as she was leaving the house. The 69-year-old domestic goddess needed several stitches to close the gash the incident left on her lip. (I’ve heard bulldogs can be hardheaded, but this gives the concept a whole new meaning.)

She documented the fender bender on her blog. “As I leaned down to whisper goodbye to a dozing Francesca, I must have startled her, because she bolted upright with such force that she hit me in the face like a boxing glove hitting an opponent’s face. I was entirely startled and my neck snapped back. I felt a bit of whiplash as blood gushed forth from my split lip. Frannie was as upset as I was and cowered in her bed.”

An employee was with her in the emergency room, and took 35 photos of the event, should you care to view pictures of Martha getting stitched up. There’s even a photo of the wall trim she stared at while flat on her back. In true Martha form, she proclaimed it needed to be updated (it does).

We hope Martha’s lip heals well, and that Francesca’s head isn’t aching too much from the collision. But you do have to wonder: Could Francesca have planned the “accident”? Was she sick of Martha traveling the world without her? Did she want her to stay home for more than 10 seconds? There may be more to this than meets the eye (or the lip). The evidence is right in The Daily Wag, the blog Francesca writes with Sharkey, the blond male version of herself.

Martha will surely be home for a few days healing. This should make Francesca very happy. Martha will surely be home for a few days healing. This should make Francesca very happy.

Earlier this week Francesca wrote about how excited she and Sharkey were about Martha finally coming home from a big trip to Columbia and Florida. “Finally, she’s coming home and told us that she is craving a homemade vegetable soup.  We, Frenchies, thought it would be nice if that soup was ready and waiting for her, so we got busy.” Francesca proceeded to show, via photos, how she and Sharkey found all the veggies growing in Martha’s greenhouse-like area. They worked hard, and were proud of their efforts to please Martha.

Next thing you know, Martha is back home (woo hoo!). But according to Martha’s blog, she only had time to unpack, sort her stuff, and play with the dogs before taking off again within hours to beat a snowstorm so she be in NYC for an early appearance on the Today Show and then go off to her own show. So when the “accident” happened, Martha hadn’t even spent one night home after her long trip.

Now Martha will be spending many nights at home. Frenchies are known for their intelligence.

You do the math.

Tellingly, Friday’s blog by Francesca and Sharkey is all about some toys in their beautiful house. It doesn’t mention a thing about the incident. They’ve clearly spoken with their lawyer.

Or maybe Francesca was just getting Martha back for the costumed humiliations you see below. (Remember this if you dress up your dog for Dress Up Your Pet Day today…)
