one problem though , Joel was transformed into King, so the body he is using now would be the same body he always has , just different shape , sooooo....no empty body :P

I was about to say the same thing, but I went and scanned previous strips involving the cosmic game to make sure that was correct. It isn't Joel's body that is in limbo. His soul is.

isn't that because he's , in some aspect , both a dog and a man at the same time ?

No.
The only thing that King retained of his former self are his memories. For the rest, he's 100% corgi dog.
The only ambiguity left is his own fate: that still is marked in heavens as Joel's, but now King has the choice to stay a dog, and should he convalidate that choice, it's likely that his fate will be marked 'King' forever.

That would imply that King is a completely different being apart from Joel, which isn't the case since they are both one and the same.

Yeah, it's creepy.
