Kaley Cuoco Explains Why She Had to Rehome Her Dog Shirley [Video]

Cuoco explained that Shirley was a very special dog to her, but when “the love of my life” Tom Pelphrey—Cuoco’s fiancé with whom she shares baby daughter Matilda—came into her life a couple years ago, he moved across the country with his own beloved German shepherd named Blue. “Unfortunately, Blue and Shirley started getting into some mega fights,” Cuoco said. “And Shirley was determined to kill him,” she added with a laugh. “Shirley had gotten into other dog fights before and it really scared me,” Cuoco continued, even though Shirley always loved people, kids, and families. “I mean, I cherished that dog.”

The Flight Attendant actor said she was very worried that Shirley was going to hurt another animal or possibly even a person who got in the middle, and so made the difficult decision that Shirley couldn’t continue living with the family, even though she loved her so much.
