Kim Zolciak-Biermann rose to fame on “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” and later went on to star on other television shows like “Dancing with the Stars.”
She’s also the proud mom of six children, whom she raised alongside her loving husband, former NFL player Kroy Biermann.
The two tied the knot in 2013, and later that year, the football player legally adopted her two daughters from a previous relationship, Brielle and Ariana.
The family seemed to be living a picture-perfect life — until they faced a scary incident back in April.
Zolciak-Biermann’s 5-year-old son, Kash, suffered from a serious dog bite to the face that left him hospitalized and in need of stitches. The panicked mom wrote on Instagram:
I don’t know where to start. The last 14hrs of our lives has been a living nightmare. My sweet @kashbiermann was bit by a dog and had very traumatic injuries. I’ve never prayed so hard, or been so scared in my life.
Luckily, the little boy escaped the incident without damage to his vision. But Kash spent several weeks recovering from the bite, which left his face swollen.
In May, she posted a heartbreaking photo documenting Kash’s recovery. She wrote:
Kash has healed up incredibly and has perfect vision in his left eye. Stitches on his water line, and his eyeball was never touched! God is Good! We are so incredibly thankful and blessed! In no time he will heal up perfectly and you will never know this happened!
It now seems that little Kash has made a full recovery, and he celebrated his fifth birthday on Tuesday.
But not all fans approved of the family’s gift choice…
Even though Kash suffered from a dog bite just months ago, Zolciak-Biermann revealed that she gifted her son a pit bull puppy in celebration of the big day, according to People.
The mother of six posted a picture of her son with his new dog, along with the caption, “My heart is going to explode.”

Zolciak-Biermann called Sailor “Kash’s big birthday surprise.”
@kimzolciakbiermann/InstagramIt was a kind gesture from the loving family, but many fans couldn’t help but wonder if it was too soon to gift a dog to Kash after his scary incident.
Some Twitter users called out Zolciak-Biermann:

But the reality star mom has yet to respond to any of the criticism. She posted on Twitter that she was proud her family “rescued” the pit bull pup.
Looks like little Sailor is going to be sticking with the family for good.
