(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Kelly Osbourne has warned intruders to beware after her brother Jack bought her a guard dog.

The TV star is known for her love of animals and is besotted with her Pomeranian pooch Sid. Kelly has now revealed her kind-hearted younger sibling has decided to give her an early Christmas present in the form of a Doberman puppy. The dogs are renowned for being excellent at guarding properties and are also good house pets, so Kelly is thrilled.

my brother got me a blue doberman puppy that he is training to be a protective dog she is so beautiful and smart... intruders beware!!! (sic), Kelly wrote on her Twitter page.

The 26-year-old cant wait to welcome the dog into her home, but she has revealed she will have to wait a while before he arrives. The pooch is currently being trained and must complete the course before he can live with Kelly.

im so excited the only down side is that he cant live with me for about 6 months because of all the training (sic), Kelly explained.

The star was left grief-stricken in July when one of her dogs died from a suspected heart attack. At the time Kelly admitted she couldnt face getting another pet because the pain of losing Woody was so great. Its devastating, she said. (C) Cover Media
