Radar Online reported that last month, Lyssa Chapman got into a bitter Twitter feud with longtime family friend Moon Angell after reports came out that she had begun dating her father.
Now, Dog is finally speaking out about the rumors, saying that Moon has been there for him since Beth’s death, while his children have abandoned him.
“Moon has been a trustworthy and loyal friend to me for over 20 years. She has been with my family through many ups and downs,” explained Dog, 66. “All my children are grown and gone on their own, there’s no one left to help me!”
Dog went on to say that he has no intention of replacing Beth.
“Moon is experienced. It’s just that. Who knows what my future holds, but right now I need her,” he confessed. “There will never be another Mrs. Dog but that doesn’t mean I have to be so sad.”

Dog’s wife Beth tragically passed away on June 26 at the age of 51 following a two year battle with lung cancer. Dog has previously said that before her death, Beth made him promise to never replace her with another woman.
“For two to three years, she knew this might happen,” Dog told Entertainment Tonight. “So she would say, ‘Who is going to sit next to you?’ And I said, ‘No one.’” When she said, “Big Daddy, you better not let another girl take my place,” he promised, “I won’t.” After all, who could take Beth’s place when she’s still with her man? “Even though she is not physically there,” Dog said, “mentally and spiritually, she is there.”
