The new addition comes two months after the deaths of her two Pomeranians Pikachu, who was nearly 14-years-old, and Pink Dog, who died less than two weeks before Pikachu.
Vanderpump, who is never without her pups, spoke to PEOPLE in March about opening her own rescue dog shelter, Vanderpump Dogs.
Rest in peace my sweet Pikachu, we will miss you so much.. Such sadness at your loss ????

“I think opening a rescue center was kind of our idea of reinventing the wheel for the rescue dogs,” Vanderpump said. “I just felt that if we could create a situation where it wasn’t so depressing. People are sometimes slightly reluctant to immerse themselves and go walking into the kill shelters when rescuing dogs. It can be very upsetting.”
Vanderpump Rules season 6 premieres Dec. 4 at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
The eighth season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills debuts Dec. 19 at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
