Lily Allen slams animal charity PETA for 'dangerous' post after she clarified her comments about getting her rescue dog Mary rehomed

Lily Allen and animal charity PETA have continued their war of word online, after the singer revealed how she rehomed her pet dog.

Lily, who lives in New York with her actor husband David Harbour, 49, and children Ethel, 13 and Marnie, 11, made the admission to her friend and fellow co-host Miquita Oliver, complaining that adopting the pooch 'ruined her life' after it cost a fortune to replace the documents - and added it prevented her daughters seeing their father for months. The comment sparked a furious reply from PETA's official X account, who responded: 'YOU laughed when speaking about abandoning Mary and ruined this poor dog’s life' Posting over the weekend, Lily explained: 'We rescued our puppy Mary from a shelter in NY and we loved her very much, BUT she developed pretty severe separation anxiety and would act out in all manner of ways.'
