The 'America's Got Talent' judge has been left in the cold in her marriage, her house and her bed since she adopted Bubbles the Chihuahua as the mutt - which she got for herself - is totally smitten with her man.

Appearing on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show', she moaned: "I don’t have a dog, it’s not mine. Joe has a dog.

"It doesn’t even look like a Chihuahua, it looks like some kind of teddy bear.

"The dog was for me, I got it for myself, she arrived and completely ignored me. Went straight to him. She has taken everything that was mine.

“It’s not a laughing thing - it’s horrible, she’s taken my husband, my bed. They sleep together and I sleep on the other side. It has become something so weird.

“But I have to say it’s not Joe’s fault, she’s obsessed with him."

When host Ellen put it to Sofia that it's easy to see why the pooch prefers the 'Magic Mike' hunk, the Colombian beauty replied: "Yes, but not to that level. She hates me."

Sofia, 48, claims that if Joe, 44, is out of the house then the dog simply stares out of the window waiting for her master to return and won't even look at her in the eye.

The 'Modern Family' star said: "If he has to go away for work and she knows she has to stay with me in the house and knows she has to deal with me, [she] won’t do eye contact.

“She’s always looking out, every little noise … she cannot enjoy the time with me.”
