Katie Price sparks fresh fears for her pets as PETA comment on 'dangerous' video
Katie Price has been blasted by fans and the animal rights charity Peta after sharing a video of her dog leaning out of a window while driving in a car - and was warned it could have ended in "tragedy"
Reality TV star Katie Price has sparked fresh alarm among her fans who feared for the life of an animal in her care. The 46-year-old mother-of-five has an unwanted track record of animals dying in unfortunate circumstances.
Eight of the star's animals have died in recent years - and there has even been a petition calling for her to be slapped with a ban from owning pets, which has attracted over 37,000 signatures. Some fans have been keeping a close eye on the star when it comes to her livestock - and were shocked to see her putting her dog in a potentially dangerous situation.
Taking to Snapchat, Katie shared a video of a dog leaning out the window of a moving car. She captioned the video clip to write: "Anyone else have a pet like this?"
But her simple post attracted a wall of anger from followers who expressed concern for the pooch. Among complainers is the animal charity People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) - who slammed the star for sharing her video on social media.
A spokesperson told The Sun:"While it's wonderful for dogs to enjoy the great outdoors and lovely when guardians include them on suitable outings, it can be damned dangerous to have the car window lowered enough for them to jump or fall out."
Highlighting the risks to the dog, the spokesperson said: "A sudden stop, sharp turn, or tempting distraction can quickly turn a fun trip into a tragedy."
The latest intervention from Peta comes after they previously offered to pay her thousands of pounds to stop buying pets. Offering the glamour model £5,000, they said in a past statement: "things have gone horribly wrong with many of the animals under her supervision."
In June 2023, Katie's German Shepherd Blade was struck on the busy A24, close to her home in East Sussex. Sharing her grief at the time, she wrote in an online post: "Words can't express the lost of my best friend my protector my absolutely everything who had sadly passed away today. I have no words to say how I'm feeling but numb and shocked rip Blade."
Six months earlier, her pet Pomeranian Sharon was killed, reportedly in a horror crash on the same road. And the year before that, Katie's Alsatian Queenie, a present from her ex Kieran Hayler, was allegedly hit by a pizza delivery driver.
She wrote on social media at the time: "I'm absolutely devastated... she was killed by a heartless delivery driver who ran into our dog seeing her struggle and drove off without telling and left her to die."
Another Alsatian belonging to the star was killed on the A24 in 2020 - but it's not just dogs that have died in tragic circumstances. A horse was also killed on the busy road in 2017 when it escaped from a field.
In July 2020, French bulldog Rolo died after getting stuck under an electric armchair. The pet had been a present for Katie's daughter, Princess Andrei's 13th birthday and the mum called what happened a 'freak accident'.
The glamour model attempted to revive the pet before rushing him to the vet, where she learned it was sadly too late. "There was nothing they could do, but they did say he wouldn't have died in pain, it was quick," she explained on YouTube at the time.

Cruz Beckham post heartbreaking family snap after brother Brooklyn tells them he ‘wants no contact'
Brooklyn was understood to be unhappy at discovering his father's knighthood in the press cruz control Cruz Beckham post heartbreaking family snap after brother Brooklyn tells them he 'wants no contact' CRUZ Beckham has shared a throwback family snap amid the ongoing family feud between the Beckhams. The youngest son of David and Victoria appeared to be looking back at happier times in the family as he shared an old snap of the three brothers with their mum after she had just given birth to daughter, Harper Seven. 5 Cruz has shared a throwback snap of his family amid the ongoing feud Credit: Instagram 5 The family are locked in a feud Credit: Instagram/victoriabeckham The snap, believed to be taken in 2011, showed the three boys beaming down the lens of the camera as they snuggled up to their mum. Victoria tenderly held her daughter in the heartwarming picture. Cruz's decision to upload the image is very telling amid ongoing tension in the family after Brooklyn decided he no longer wanted contact with his famous family. Cruz did not add any captions nor did he tag his family members in the snap. Earlier today, it was revealed that Brooklyn is refusing to reply to messages amid the bitter feud, according to reports. The 26-year-old, who lives in LA with wife Nicola Peltz, 30, has no desire to speak to his parents or siblings after only learning about his dad's knighthood in the press, an insider has told Page Six. The sourced said: "Brooklyn told his family he wants no contact and he's not responding to those that try to connect.' However, a source close to Brooklyn denied this and said, "this seems to be another deliberate attempt to misrepresent the truth, and it only serves to distract from this honor being bestowed on Brooklyn's father." The Sun has contacted representatives for Brooklyn and the Beckhams for comment. England legend David will be knighted as part of King Charles' birthday honours. Peltz-Beckham's respond to reports of family feud It's a title he has coveted for some time and it means Victoria will be come Lady Beckham. David was first put forward for a knighthood in 2011 after helping to secure the London 2012 Olympics. But he was blocked from getting the title by the Honours Committee after becoming caught up in a tax avoidance scheme, along with many other stars. His finances were cleared by the taxman at least four years ago - paving the way for him to finally get the coveted honour. Just weeks ago we revealed how David and Victoria feel there might be no way to reconcile with their eldest child. Brooklyn, who was a no-show at David's star-studded 50th birthday celebrations last month, shared a video of himself and Nicola riding on his motorbike and wrote: 'My whole world. I will love you forever. I always choose you baby.' Those close to the Beckhams said the message seemed 'very pointed'. A source added: 'It shows how much this situation with his family has escalated. 5 Brooklyn has cut all contact with his family Credit: Getty 5 Brooklyn has been going through a difficult time Credit: Getty "It's very sad for everyone involved, especially David and Victoria who love him very much. This isn't the Brooklyn his family knows and loves. 'This post was like a dagger to their hearts but they will always be there for Brooklyn.' Tensions became public when Brooklyn did not publicly acknowledge fashion designer Victoria, 51, on Mother's Day. He then failed to show at any of David's 50th birthday parties. His mum and dad have continued to acknowledge him on social media, but pals of Brooklyn and Nicola suggested that was for show. The Sun revealed that the couple recently had dinner in California with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who were 'very empathetic'.
