Despite an earlier report from TMZ saying so, Dog did not have a heart attack. Tests run by doctors indicated that the hospitalization was related to stress and blood pressure, according to a Tuesday report from TMZ.

The tabloid site reported Dog was released from the hospital late Monday and is resting at home, according to an unnamed source.

In addition to the death of his wife, Beth Chapman, from cancer, Dog has been dealing with other stressful issues. In August, The Blast reported the "Dog's Most Wanted" star's family store was burglarized. More expensive merchandise and clothing was stolen from the store than anything else.
