Dina Taji has claimed responsibility for rescuing a £2,000 pomsky dog owned by Lee Andrews and Katie Price. The animal was reportedly abandoned with a pet-sitter while Andrews and his father were incarcerated in Dubai.
The £2,000 Pomsky left at a Dubai pet-sitter
Dina Taji, the former partner of Lee Andrews, used her Instagram page for the cat rescue shelter @dubaistreetkitties to announce she had intervened to secure the safety of a pomsky dog. According to the report, the dog had been left with a pet-sitter, prompting Taji to step in and provide a safe environment for the animal.
While Taji has received requests to transport the dog to the United Kingdom, she has explicitly declined to do so. Taji stated that she does not know the individual making the request—believed to be Katie Price—well enough to guarantee the animal's welfare, emphasizing that she must investigate whether the recipients are "reliable people" who will not neglect or abuse the pet.
A £200,000 mortgage and the Al Awir prison stay
The rescue occurs against a backdrop of severe legal turmoil for Lee Andrews in Dubai. The report says that Andrews was re-arrested in Dubai shortly after a prevoius release from Al Awir prison, where his father, Peter Andrews, is also currently incarcerated following a third-party complaint.
The legal conflict stems from allegations of financial deceit. In January, it was revealed that Lee Andrews allegedly took out a £200,000 mortgage in the name of Dina Taji without her permission. This fraudulent activity led to legal proceedings and a travel ban in Dubai. Andrews is reportedly attempting to raise a £120,000 fine to secure his release and return to the UK.
PETA's condemnation and the history of deaths in Sussex
The dispute over the pomsky is intensified by Katie Price's controversial history with animal care. pETA UK's Senior Vice President, Mimi Bekhechi, previously condemned the purchase of the pomsky by Katie Price and Lee Andrews, describing the acquisition as a "new low" and calling for Price to be banned from owning animals.
This scrutiny follows a series of tragedies involving animals in Price's care,including the deaths of five dogs, a horse, and a chameleon. Many of these incidents occurred in traffic accidents near her home in Sussex. While Katie Price has attributed these losses to "bad luck" and has since increased security in her garden, the pattern of loss has made Dina Taji hesitant to return the dog.
The tug-of-war between Katie Price and Dina Taji over the pomsky
Despite the tension, Dina Taji and Katie Price have previously met for a private discussion. this meeting took place after Lee Andrews was arrested on fraud suspicions, during which Taji reportedly cautioned Price about her husband's behavior. Currently,sources indicate that Katie Price is actively seeking to have the pomsky transported back to the UK.
Several questions remain unresolved regarding the dog's future and the legal status of the owwners. It remains unclear if Katie Price has made a formal legal claim for the animal or if the dog's ownership will be settled privately. furthermore, the report does not clarify if the £120,000 fine for Lee Andrews has been fully raised or if his release is contingent on the resolution of the fraud claims involving Dina Taji.
