She needed something to love!

Lea Michele is slowly healing her heartache following the July death of boyfriend Cory Monteith, and the Glee star recently adopted a Pomeranian mix to help her cope with her grief.

The actress shared a snapshot of her new pooch on Twitter with the caption," Today I would like to introduce you to Pearl. She's 8 years old and is my new little love... Welcome Pearl."

It's good she has a new fuzzy friend to keep her company!

"[Lea] still misses him every day. She talks about Cory all the time. [Lea] doesn't like to be alone. Her friends have really been helping her through it. It's getting a little easier," a source dished to People.

Animals always make people smile!
