Just days following the news that Beth Chapman had passed away after battling cancer for the last few years, fans have been wondering if her new show Dog’s Most Wanted is at risk for getting canceled by the network. The show is similar to Dog the Bounty Hunter, and features Chapman and her husband, Duane “Dog” Chapman, hunting down wanted criminals.
The show was originally thought to be airing this fall, but recently there were reports that suggested it may not debut until sometime in early 2020.

Chapman’s passing was first announced by Dog, who took to Twitter to share the sad news with fans and followers worldwide.
“It’s 5:32 in Hawaii, this is the time she would wake up to go hike Koko Head mountain. Only today, she hiked the stairway to heaven. We all love you, Beth. See you on the other side,” Dog wrote.
Soon after, the couple’s daughter Bonnie Chapman also commented on Beth’s passing, saying, “Love you forever mom. You’ve got a halo now.”
“I’ll never forget you, mama. You were such a strong woman, and you taught me to always be strong. You were strong for everyone, and you taught me it’s okay to let go,” she later added.
So thankful I got your beautiful smile. pic.twitter.com/4yRhAwh9xd

“So heartbroken. RIP [Beth Chapman] We love you,” Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Kim Zolciak-Biermann said.
At this time, it is being reported by The Blast that Beth’s body will be cremated, rather than buried. However, no one from the Chapman family appears to have officially commented on that at this time.
