Beth had been diagnosed with stage four throat cancer and had been placed in a medically induced coma days earlier.
The newest episode of Dog's Most Wanted shows Dog's grief just hours after her passing.
“I’ve only been alone as I showered and I had to run out without a towel, because I can’t be alone right now,” Dog said in the episode.

“I just hope that I don’t live very much longer without her, because now she made the first step, she’s through the gate,” he said. "She paved a way for me."
"I want to take a [expletive] pain pill so bad," Dog revealed.

"I feel like if I did something to myself right now and passed away suicidal and I got to heaven and was like, ‘Hi honey,’ and would she go, ‘You dumbass, why would you do that?’" he contemplated.
"Or would she go, ‘Wow, you’re here?''"

"I’ll be like ‘Of course I’m here. You left me. I’m here.’ So, am I obligated to do that?"
In a later interview with People, Dog reassured his fans, saying, "I don’t want to die right now. I’m not afraid to die anymore, but I really didn’t care for awhile if something would happen. I do care now.”
