Meet Demi Lovato's new puppy Batman

He might not look so tough, but Demi Lovato's fluffy little creature is named Batman.

The singer showed off her new puppy on Instagram on Thursday, her birthday, and hopefully, Batman is helping her get over her heartbreak.

Lovato's last dog, Buddy, died only three weeks ago.

"We are absolutely heartbroken to be writing this but Wilmer and I are devastated to inform you that we lost our little angel Buddy last Sunday," she wrote. "He was taken from us way too soon in a tragic accident and though I will never know why this had to happen, I do know that God only puts us through situations that we can handle so with that, together we our staying strong."

Buddy was allegedly killed by a coyote, according to TMZ. Lovato was so grief-stricken that she canceled a "Good Morning America" appearance. She had received Buddy as an early Christmas gift in December.

Lovato had created multiple social media accounts for her adorable dog before his death; let's hope she does the same for Batman so we can keep track of the adorable pup.

Ummm... guys.... meet Batman.....
