Gemma Atkinson has slammed claims she and her family are 'cruel' over the breed of one of their dogs. The 37-year-old, from Bury, has two beloved dogs, Ollie and Norman, who regularly feature on her Instagram page and helped in announcing Gemma's pregnancy back in 2019.
But over the weekend, Gemma took to Instagram to share a video of her sister's dog. The cute, tan-coloured pup was clearly enjoying the fuss the Hits Radio host was heaping on to him as she joked: "My sister's dog Rocco is actually a pig," referring to the snorting sounds he was making.
However, Gemma was quick to respond to a message she had privately been sent which asked: "Don't you feel bad for the bulldog breeds with their squashed noses!!" Sharing a screengrab of the message on her Instagram Story, the mum-of-one replied: "Yeh! I always do. Especially in the summer heat."
