MARY CHAPIN CARPENTER'S DOG IN THE CLEAR

NEW YORK. (Wireless Flash) -- Mary Chapin Carpenter's beloved bowser isn't headed for doggie heaven just yet. The country singer recently canceled three concerts to rush to the bedside of her ailing golden retriever Reilly, but she tells the upcoming "Parade" magazine her precious pooch is now doing much better. However, Reilly is not out of the woods yet -- the poor mutt is now undergoing chemotherapy for lymphoma. If the golden retriever looks familiar, it's because he appears on the cover of Chapin Carpenter's latest CD, "Party Doll."
