Her sister Tamara was as soon as criticised for posing in a web-based image with a horse which had its mane dyed pink.
But Petra Ecclestone does not appear to have realized any classes from this blunder as she has shared an image of her Yorkshire terrier dyed an alarming shade of purple.
Perhaps anticipating the backlash, the daughter of former F1 chief Bernie Ecclestone tagged her sister and wrote: ‘The calm earlier than the storm.’
And the storm has arrived. Last night time, Kate Middleton‘s brother James, who owns a happiness and well-being firm for canine referred to as James & Ella, instructed me he strongly disapproves of the development.
‘Dogs are lovely simply as they’re. To color your canine is treating them as an adjunct and it’s very unacceptable,’ he stated.
‘We must be doing every thing we are able to to make canine’ lives comfortable and wholesome – not making them match our outfits.’

A spokesman for animal rights charity PETA additionally criticised the picture of the gawdy pup. ‘Dogs will not be one thing for bored folks to deal with like dolls, and Petra must be mortified to not know higher.
‘Dyeing an animal’s hair will not be solely cheesy but additionally harmful. Dogs love us it doesn’t matter what we seem like, and people ought to lengthen the identical affection and understanding to the animals who share our properties.’
The RSPCA stated: ‘Creative grooms, together with the addition of shapes and equipment to the coat, in addition to the appliance of dyes, has the potential to perpetuate the concept that canine are objects.’
But Petra fired again at her critics final night time, saying: ‘We used a vegetable dye. It’s my daughter’s birthday and so we dyed her [the dog] – it is non-cruel and non-toxic.
‘We have executed it earlier than and it was effective.’
I’m in little doubt Petra needs to supply a pleasant life for her canine. In 2011, she revealed the true cause why she purchased her £52 million Los Angeles mansion – so her miniature canine may have extra space!
