Kenny Chesney Finds Maltipoo Puppy Love

Country music star Kenny Chesney has found love with not one, not two, but three gorgeous gals. Of course, there's his girlfriend, Amy Colley (a former Miss Tennessee USA who currently works as a nurse), but now there are two more girls in his life: a pair of teacup maltipoo puppies!

According to CMT, Chesney and Colley flew into Bardstown, Ky. to meet with a breeder and buy a puppy. The breeder told the Kentucky Standard News that she had no idea the man playing with her puppies was a big star because she'd only spoken to Colley, whose name was on the contract.

While the pair had only planned on a single pooch, they ended up with two females, who they named Molly and Dolly. Since they'll only be around four pounds each when fully grown, we're thinking two is probably pretty manageable. And after all, the only thing cuter than a maltipoo puppy is multiple maltipoos!

No Jessica Simpson interview is complete these days without an inquiry into the much-publicized loss of her Maltipoo, Daisy. The five-year-old dog, a gift from her then-husband Nick Lachey, was taken by a coyote one month ago and is now presumed dead.

"Daisy meant the world to me," the star told UsMagazine.com. "I hold her memory very, very close. It was an unfortunate thing what happened. That I don't have her every day... it's a very hard thing to talk about."

Will Simpson get a new dog? "I haven't really thought about another dog yet, but maybe sometime," Simpson continued. "[Daisy] would want that."

Betsy Rosenfeld, author of "The Complete Single's Guide to Being a Dog Owner: Choose the Right Breed, Train Your New Pup, Balance Dating and Dog Duties, Find Doggy Daycare and Travel With Your Dog," weighs in on Simpson's sad situation.

"I feel so much for Jessica Simpson," Rosenfeld tells Paw Nation. "Daisy was a constant source of unconditional love for her. To not have that enduring companionship is devastating."
