Drew Barrymore adopts puppy

Drew Barrymore has adopted an eight-week-old rescue puppy from Bark n' Bitches, a humane pet shop in Hollywood.

According to femalefirst.co.uk, Barrymore has adopted the cuddly canine with her fiance Will Kopelman and has named the pet as Oliver.

"They really were very thoughtful and not impulsive about making the decision. Drew, being such a huge dog fanatic, was great to Will. She really wanted him to feel it out and make the decision," store owner Shannon von Roemer told People magazine.

Barrymore is not the first star to provide a home for a needy pooch, as Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez recently adopted a 10-week-old husky puppy named Baylor together.

Twilight actor Robert Pattinson adopted a four-legged friend to keep him company while he's on location.
