'Dog the Bounty Hunter' starts new TV-show with wife amid her cancer battle
In December, “Dog the Bounty Hunter” star Beth Chapman posted a cryptic message on Twitter. She informed her fans that they would be “getting the greatest #Christmas present ever.”
Her fans weren’t sure if she was referring to her cancer battle or if she was hinting on a new show. On Monday, her husband Duane “Dog” Chapman revealed that they were, in fact, coming back to television.
This week, Duane “Dog” Chapman revealed that he and his wife Beth Chapman would be coming back to television. The two are set to star in a new show called “Dog’s Most Wanted.”

In December she’d hinted to her fans that she and her husband had a special Christmas present, it appears this might have been what she was alluding to.

The Chapman’s initially found fame with “Dog the Bounty Hunter” from 2004 to 2012. In 2017 they returned with a special called “Dog and Beth: Fight of Their Lives,” where they followed Beth’s battle with throat cancer.
Last year, she had to undergo emergency surgery as the cancer had returned.
