Dog Loosed from Goose Parade

Duane "Dog" Chapman may have thoroughly cooked his own goose with an N-word-laced rant, but now he's burning another Goose -- the long-running San Diego parade -- by pulling out just days before the festival.
Dog Chapman
TMZ has learned that Dog has ditched the 61st Annual Mother Goose Parade, where he was originally scheduled to be part of the "Walk of Fame," along with celebs like Katharine McPhee, Drake Bell, and Roselyn Sanchez. Lucky for animal lovers, Sylvester the Cat, Daffy Duck and Tweety Bird will be there.

Meanwhile, a source tells TMZ that the revelation that Dog's son Tucker was the one who sold his father's rant to the National Enquirer isn't so shocking -- given that he's done it before. We're told that just a few months back, Tucker was paid by the tabloid for a story about his dad disappearing.

UPDATE: Turns out it was the other way around: the Dog was looking forward to doing the parade, but they were the ones that canceled on him. Wonder why?

61. Not really all that surprising since I believe this is the son that was in prison for drugs. Sounds like he's still doing drugs and will do whatever it takes to pay for them, even sell out his own family. How sad.

62. I met Dog when I lived in Hawai'i. He's not like they are making him out to be...yes what is said is ignorant and it never should have been said. Haven't you all said something nasty you wish you had never said? They are generous, kind people...one stupid commet said out of anger should not define the rest of his life.

63. This is to comment #57. You sound like a really dumb bitch. You think that the term hillbilly carries the same severity and venom that the N word does ? You are very much representative of the stupidity that is so rampant in our society.

64. Good riddance to another racist, 80's throwback a-hole. I am a black man who understands it was a private conversation! That said...WHO CARES!!! He is a racist pig who calls the girl a N-WORD B***H!!! How the hell is that not racist morons. And stop useing rap as excuse. He said it now he should live with the consequences. I have more respect for the clan since they let you know up front they hate me for my color and they have the courage to stand by their words. Dogg is a coward, who's own children don't speak to him when off camera. I am the son of a retired police commander, do you know what police think of bounty hunters in general? They believe them to be mercenary slime. Dogg is criminal hunting criminals.

Read all the responses here and the other dogg threads. He says in the tape no nword was going to bring him down...well he was right he did it to himself. and if your own son would turn you in for buck you are a horrible father and a horrible person. Saying the son is a bad guy even if its true deflects from the fact he said these things and says himself he says it alot then uses it in derogatory way. In the tape he is fine with his racist feelings and only is upset at the prospect at it being brought to light!!! Listen to the tape again and stop blaming blacks...we don't have to justify squat about why the word is offensive you know it is so when whites use it at all they are trying to be insulting to blacks!

65. I don't approve of the "N" word, or condone Dog's behavior, but it was a private conversation and it's obvious that Tucker set his Dad up and sold him out. Tucker is pissed because his dad didn't use his influence to keep him out of jail or get him a lighter sentence, instead he let him go to prison, get clean and hopefully learn a valuable lesson. Obviously he didn't find the Lord while he was in there and learned how to screw people over. And what's he gonna do when he runs out of the $15K the Enquirer paid him and dear old Dad's career is over so no money coming from him.

The point is, Dog is human and we all make mistakes. He apologized, so people need to move on. For all you Dog haters and slamming people for watching his show, what have you done to make your community a better place to live? Most likely- NOTHING. Quit hating and try practicing forgiveness!

66. @47. Its funny all these blacks can say crap about anybody they want, then a white person says one word and the blacks all freak out.

-Speak English
-Black people slow down when you talk, dont make up your own words
-Dont, spend all of your money on 24's for your crappy car
-Dont walk around like your tough
-Dont think you have money when you dont
-Move back to Africa
There are so many things I could list!

If you do this, maybe you wont be hated by so many white people!

-we do speak English
-we don't talk slow, and white people use slang words too
-white people buy rims for their cars also
-white people walk around like your tough too
-white people try to keep up with their neighbors and rack of thousands in credit card debt and have to file bankruptcy because they think they have money when they dont too
-move back to England, your not a true American either!
Ther are so many things i could list!
If you do this, maybe you wont be looked at as hypocrites by black people

69. To #37 Scooter Trash - What an appropriate name for yourself, TRASH. There's not many bikers with more than a 7th grade education either. So what does that tell you, huh, TRASH ?

70. Oh come on! This was a private conversation and his son will burn in hell for what he did! Dog's show is rated number 1 on A&E and he isn't the first person so use the N word and won't be the last! Stand up for dog. He is, after all, human. His son Tucker has been in prison, on drugs and has cost dog a lot of grief. So dog used to N word...Big deal...They use it all the time to each other but if a white person says it we will be burned at the stake! It is not right! So what if he said the N word in a private conversation. Give the guy a break. He has fought a huge battle against the war on meth and is very good at what he does and he is a christian as well. Even christiaons have bad thoughts and occasionally say the wrong thing. Its called being HUMAN. Stand up for dog!

72.
If blacks do not want to be stereo typed then they should stop acting the way they do.. I am not saying that every black person is violent and cannot speak proper English, but the majority of them are and do.. Blacks are famous for using the N word, and killing each other, they are racist against their own kind. We all say things in anger, I hold nothing against Dog Chapman. Black people need to stop crying over every litte thing, it is not the 1960's, they have just as many rights as everybody else. Al Shapton is a racist, he only cares for his own kind, Dog should forget about marching with him.

73. Anyone that compares hillbilly to the nword is just trying to fool themselves it is not the same! Never has been the same and never will be. Read some of the odious comments on this post or any of the racist rant posts on tmz and you will see how mainstream racism truly is. ANyon and I repeat anyone that belives he is not racist after listening to all or part of the tape is the worst kind of person...the kind that turns thier head when confronted by evil!

75. Give me a break! Tucker got out of prison in 2006 after serving 4 years of a 20 year sentence. He is not perfect, that's for sure.

HE is the one who screwed his father and who should be responsible for it. Why blame Dog? I think Dog had had enough, and I think Tucker's girlfriend tried to blackmail Dog and that is what the tirade is all about. I would have said the same words only worse.

When I was a kid, eeney meeney miney mo was said by all the kids and the N word was involved. We had no clue what it meant nor did we know it was "racial" (no black kids in my neighborhood) and just said it (I will bet half to three-fourth of people over age 55 said the same thing).

Someday if you get into hot water, I hope TMZ reports it to the world.
