Paris Hilton has named her new pooch Princess Paris Jr.

The 33-year-old television personality - who is known for her love of dogs - has chosen the name for her eighth pooch.

Alongside a picture of her "angel", which she posted on Instagram, she wrote: "Finally named my new lil angel. Her new name is Princess Paris Jr. (sic)"

Earlier this week, Paris revealed she had adopted the new dog so it could be the "girlfriend" of Pomeranian Prince.

In a post on the photo-sharing site, she wrote previously: "Just got @Prince_Hilton_The_Pom a new girlfriend from @BettysYorkies. Obsessed! She is so tiny & amazing! What should I name her? (sic)"

Paris - who also has a $13,000 Pomeranian puppy called Prince Hilton and a Chihuahua named Peter Pan - reportedly spent $25,000 on two dogs from Betty's Teacup Yorkies - one of which is Princess Paris Jr.

Paris gave the second pooch to her mother, Kathy Hilton, as a 35th wedding anniversary gift, according to a report by TMZ.com.

Kathy - whose new puppy only weighs 12 ounces - appeared to be so thrilled with the new addition to her family that she asked her Instagram followers to help her come up with a name.
