Remember the poor little puppy that KLG dropped? (If you don't, you can check it out here, but be warned: it's a cringer.) The puppy was visiting from the North Shore animal shelter when he slipped from her grip. Apparently, she said, in an attempt to escape from Hoda. "I'm a wreck," an anguished Kathie Lee said the next morning.

"I'm so glad," she said, adding,  "And it's far, far, far away from me."
