Katie Price slammed by fans as she ‘shoves’ puppy away from son Harvey and is branded ‘so cruel’
KATIE Price has been slammed by fans after they accused her of ‘shoving’ a puppy away from son Harvey and onto the ground.
The star, who has had a very colourful history when it comes to being a pet owner, sparked uproar online after being accused of pushing the small pup so that it fell from the chair.
The moment was captured at the start of Katie’s latest YouTube video in which Harvey was gently cradling his baby cousin.
Harvey could be seen clutching onto baby Olive, the child of Katie’s sister Sophie Price.
But it seemed that one of Katie’s pups wanted to join in as it could be seen excitedly bouncing up and down at Harvey’s leg as it attempted to get on the chair with him and Olive.
As the dog got very close to the baby, Katie appeared to place her hand on one side of the dog and move it downwards out of shot.
Her hand could be seen moving it back as the dog quickly disappeared out of the frame of the camera.
A bang, as if something had just fallen on the floor, could then be heard as someone else behind the camera appeared to make a concerned “ooo” noise immediately afterwards.
The moment has led some of her fans to accuse her of unfairly shoving the dog.
Katie was branded “so cruel” by some fans who insisted she pushed the puppy too hard.
Writing in the comments section of the video, one concerned viewer said: “You knocked the poor puppy flying I could hear the bang on the floor so cruel.”
As another added: “Puppy got flung.”
The comments on Katie’s actions continued to flood in with someone else penning: “Disgusting the way you knocked that puppy onto the floor.
“We all know about your track record with dogs and puppies. You should not be allowed anywhere near pets.”
A fourth commented: “Omg the way you just flung your poor dog on the floor, you have no business looking after any animals.
“You really are such a horrible person.”
Before a fifth begged the star: “Please don’t push the dog away like that.”
Just a few weeks ago, the star was accused of kicking a dog in one of her TikTok videos after it appeared to get in the way of her modelling her range of clothes.
Katie has often raised eyebrows when it comes to owning animals.
A petition was created on change.org to stop Katie from owning animals amid concern for their welfare in her care. It has racked up almost 38,000 signatures.
Over the years, a number of tragic incidents involving Katie’s pets have been revealed.
This includes her German Shepherd guard dog being killed after being hit by a vehicle on the A24, which was close to Katie’s East Sussex home.
The tragedy happened just seven months after another of Katie’s dogs, Sharon, was killed on the same road and one of her horses was also killed there, after it broke free from her field.
In 2020, her French Bulldog Rolo suffocated after being squashed underneath a chair.
Katie also had to give away an out-of-control Alsatian, Bear, for attacking other animals and was slammed for giving away another dog only a few months after getting it.
It lead to leading animal charity PETA has made it clear bosses think Katie has got “blood on her hands” and should be served with a lifetime ban on keeping animals.
Peta even previously offered Katie £5,000 to give up animals, and recently told The Sun the offer still stands.
