Christie Swadling has hit back at fans after they called her out for not taking her pet dog Harley on walks.
The influencer shared a video to Instagram on Tuesday as she went for a stroll and explained why she leaves her French Bulldog behind.
‘A lot of people get angry when I’m not walking with Harley. Just do some research on Frenchies before ya’ll slamming,’ Christie, 27, wrote.
‘If it’s too hot or my [walks are long] I will not take her as she could die so stfu.’
She then explained her fiancé Joel Price wakes up early each morning to take Harley on a walk.
‘Best to walk French bulldogs early before the heat comes. So I leave that up to the human who naturally wakes up at 4.30am… her dad Joel,’ she continued.

The post comes after Christie was roasted after announcing her pregnancy with Joel last month.
She shared a video to Instagram, which showed her placing red roses in front of a large glass sign that read ‘Baby Price, Due May 2025’.
‘Words can’t describe our happiness right now. Baby Price Due May 2025,’ she wrote in the caption.
However, some fans questioned the ‘bizarre’ video and said it looked like the couple were announcing a loss.
‘It looks like a grave stone,’ one person wrote on social media.
‘When I first saw it I thought they were announcing a [death],’ a second person commented.
‘Wtf is with the announcement? It looks like someone’s just died,’ another said.
‘I thought, like it was a loss announcement or something,’ one agreed.

In her post, Swadling explained she was preparing to start her IVF journey when she took a pregnancy test.
‘A day before we had an appointment with our Dr to start our IVF journey I went to take another pregnancy test from feeling ALL the symptoms known to a pregnant woman,’ she began.
‘And there I found a pre positive test I did a few weeks back but inpatient me after the numerous negative tests I’ve had previously just seen one line first and put it straight back in the draw… after 6 more positive test that night I was finally convinced my dreams have became reality.’
‘Joel has been my biggest supporter through this journey and I’ve known since day 1 he is who I am doing life with, I am so excited for this new chapter of our life.’
The announcement came months after Price was served with a restraining order and charged with domestic violence-related common assault.
Price, 38, was served an interim Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) by NSW Police on behalf of Swadling in April. He pleaded not guilty to the assault charge.
Daily Mail Australia understands the matter was heard in court on August 6.
The pair began dating in 2020 before Price got down on one knee and proposed the following year.
