Katie Price sparked more animal welfare concerns as she risked jail after riding a horse with her pet puppy stuffed down her jacket.
The star's fiancé Carl Woods shared a clip as she went out for a ride with the poor pooch tucked inside her coat.
Katie purchased pup Buddy - a little Chihuahua - in the summer and regularly showers him with love on Instagram.
But it is not just her treatment of the dog which will cause annoyance - according to the Highway Code, you should keep both hands on the reins unless you are signalling when horse riding.
You must not carry anything which might affect your balance or get tangled up with the reins - especially animals.
Many of the rules in The Highway Code are legal requirements, and if you disobey these rules you are committing a criminal offence.
You may be fined, given penalty points on your licence or be disqualified from driving. In the most serious cases you may be sent to prison.
Katie avoided jail last month despite admitting drink-driving while disqualified and without insurance. The decision sparked outrage.
Mirror Online have approached Katie and her reps for comment.
Many flocked to social media to criticise her again, weeks after a petition was launched to stop her owning animals again.
It came after she reportedly gave her daughter Princess' dog Precious away to a crew member working at her home.
Katie is known for her love of animals, particularly dogs, but has lost several dogs in a series of tragic accidents.
In February 2020, the 43-year-old's Alsatian Sparkle was killed after being hit by a car.
Katie's dog Queenie also died in similar circumstances, after being run over by a pizza delivery van.
Then there was Princess' poor Rolo, who sadly suffocated after getting trapped under a chair.
She was was seen on horseback on Carl's Instagram story, with fans quick to spot Buddy inside her coat as she was trotting along.
After getting out and about in the fresh air, Katie shared a picture of herself kissing the puppy and wrote: "Buddy is so cute he loves my cuddles".
But the move didn't please some of her followers online.
One wrote: “A pet is more than a pawn to pose with. They require love, time, care and attention.”
A second said: “You should be banned from keeping animals full stop.”
Another told her: "Why is that dog down your jacket?"
PETA previously advised against getting any more dogs.
Director, Elisa Allen, told The Sun: "Given her track record with animals, several of whom have died in her 'care', it would be irresponsible and reckless for Katie to be allowed to acquire another one.
"And any breeder willing to sell to her is clearly putting profit over the animals' welfare."
Despite some saying she shouldn't be allowed to own any more animals, a representative for Katie told the Mirror that the reality TV star is "an avid pet lover".
She said that she would be "more than happy" to support future PETA campaigns.
Her rep told us: "It has been well documented that Kate is an avid pet lover and these incidents have occurred however, Kate would be more than happy to sit down with Elisa Allen, director of PETA, to discuss her concerns."
