KATIE Price has sparked concerns for the welfare of her pet dogs after it’s claimed they’re ‘living in shocking conditions’ at her Mucky Mansion.
The self-declared animal lover, 44, has been reported to the RSPCA and accused of neglecting her chihuahuas after they were seen walking in their own excrement beside filthy cages.

In a picture seen by The Sun, toilet roll is strewn across a hard wooden floor that is caked in poo and grime.
The four dogs’ food and water bowls are scattered around the dirty room, which appears to be by a back door.
A source said: “It’s shocking to see the conditions those poor dogs are living in. After all that’s happened with Katie’s pets in the past you’d have thought she would be going above and beyond for her dogs, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
“She might have renovated her home but the dogs don’t appear to be benefitting from it and still live in squalor.”
The RSPCA declined to comment.
A spokesman for Katie has been approached for comment.
The mum-of-five has a long history of animal controversies with at least six pets dying while under her care.
A petition demanding she is banned from buying any more pets has gathered over 26,000 signatures on Change.Org.
The three-year-old petition, which was set up before the death of the sixth fatality in November, is calling on animal charities RSPCA and PETA to prevent any more deaths from happening.

Despite the furore, Katie does often share pictures on Instagram of her chihuahuas being well looked after inside the family home.
In one snap, she is seen kissing Buddy, while in another she is seen snoozing beside three of her dogs on the sofa and in a third her daughter Bunny is lovingly cradling a white chihuahua pup.
The family’s most recent pet tragedy was in November, when Katie’s dog Sharon was run over after bounding through an open gate onto a busy road.
A source close to Katie said it was “rotten luck” that Sharon was hit and Katie was “in bits”.
It followed a litany of five other known deaths — more are alleged — which began in 2017 when one of her horses perished after being struck by a motor.
A year on, a delivery driver hit her Alsatian, Queenie.
Chameleon Marvin died of a “broken heart” the same year when her kids Princess and Junior went to stay with her ex Peter Andre.
In 2020 a second Alsatian, Sparkle, was hit by a car.
Months later, French Bulldog Rolo suffocated.
A member of staff sat on the pup after it dozed off under a chair when Katie illegally gave it vet prescription-only cannabis oil.
Katie has also had to give away an out-of-control Alsatian, Bear, for attacking other animals.
