We really have to hand it to her!

Once again, she is stepping up to give a furry friend in need of love just that - and even possibly a home!

Miley Cyrus took to Twitter earlier in the week to let her readers know about this poor puppy rescued from an animal shelter, where he was abandoned with chemical burns and broken bones, which is dire need of a place to live - and even suggested that she'll take him if no one else does!

Someone's go PETA feva!

Justin Bieber is the latest celebrity to team up with non-government organization People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) in its campaign for pet adoption.

In the ad campaign Bieber says:

“It’s really important that people adopt. I really encourage going out to an animal shelter or a place where you can get a dog who has been abandoned or doesn’t have a home.”

Aw. So sweet!

Bieber will be in Manila on May 10 for his “My Word Tour Concert.”

Other celebrities that have collaborated with PETA include Lea Michelle, Kellan Lutz, Pink, and Maggie Q.

Universal Studios Hollywood's annual Grinchmas holiday celebration is all about helping shelter pups!

The role of "Max the Dog," the Grinch's sidekick has been cast, and the four dogs are Dusty, Dexter, Buster and Scrapper. These dogs had previously been abandoned by their owners and were living at shelters.

These four dogs were discovered by trainers who recognized qualities of playfulness, intelligence and, the look needed for the Grinchmas celebration.

Animal trainer John McCormick explained the situation, "the same 'hyper-energy' that may have led an owner to abandon their pet may make the animal well-suited to movie and TV work, and for a role in Universal's 'Grinchmas.'"

In addition to helping these pups out, Universal Studios will be hosting two adoption fairs. Max to the Rescue: Whoville's Have A Heart Pet Adoption Fairs will be held on December 11 and December 12 from noon to 4:00 p.m. in an area located near the theme park's main entrance.

This is wonderful! Will U check out Max the Dog at Grinchmas??
