An animal rights activist, Kris Kelly, has made severe claims to a Radar Online report posted on Monday that mentioned that Giudice and her husband, Joe Giudice, abuse animals. She went as far as saying the couple's German Shepherds ate two of the chickens that are kept in the coop next to the dogs' kennel.
"Joe Giudice has two dogs in the bank yard in cages. The dogs killed two chickens...then they go to a farm and get two more chickens and then blow cigarette smoke in a goat's face and the goat screams."

Kelly added that while the German Shepherds have attacked the chickens, they are victims themselves.She said one of them "cowered in fear" when Joe entered the backyard after they ate one of the chickens. She said believes it was due to apprehension of what he would do to them as a punishment. Kelly also asserted that Joe instructs one of their daughters to abuse the animals as well.
"He teaches his daughter to respect farm animals. The child screams through every episode of the New Jersey Housewives and that's annoying BUT when you are being rough with animals it turns from annoying to unacceptable. What is this show teaching young kids? It teaches them to be bullies to both other kids and the most vulnerable, animals!"
The Giudice couple is currently awaiting their sentence after they pleaded guilty to fraud charges back in March.
