The dog belonging to Martha Stewart has died after an explosion rocked the kennel where it was staying.

It is believed that propane was to blame for the explosion at the Pennsylvania kennel that killed Genghis Khan, Stewart’s Chow puppy.

The explosion occurred during a propane delivery to the kennel on Saturday, and also injured the driver of the delivery truck.

In total 17 dogs were killed in the explosion.

On her blog, Stewart expressed condolences for the injury sustained by the driver of the truck, and for the death of her own dog, plus the other 16 animals.
