Kim Kardashian delights fans by cupping her puppies in adorable snaps

Kim Kardashian brought joy to her fans when she scooped up her puppies and hugged them close for a series of adorable photographs.

The 39-year-old Keeping Up With The Kardashians star flashed a beaming smile as she posed with her Pomeranian pooches.

Taking to Instagram on Friday, Kim shone the spotlight on her puppies as she cupped them for an impromptu photoshoot.

Reality star Kim wore a classic black leather coat and had he hair scraped back into an elaborate braid design – while her dogs looked powerless to object to being held up to the cameras.

Sharing four photos of herself with her dogs, Kim simply captioned the collection of photos: “Sushi and Sakè” – the names of the dogs.

Kim added emojis for both sake and sushi to her post as she proudly showed off the dogs.

Fans of the reality star could not contain their delight and flooded the comments section of the post with well wishes.

One follower wrote: “How cute are you guys.”

Another gushed: “Aweeee I want them and their names are everything.”

While another demanded more photos, writing: “Cuteness we need more of this cuteness.”

Sakè was added to the Kardashians family last year – and was named by Kim’s eldest child, seven-year-old North West.

Some fans have been surprised to see the dogs still alive following the short-lived fates of some of the family’s past pets.

Kim’s cat Mercy died after being re-homed by the star not long after she was gifted to the star by husband Kanye West.

While boxer dog Rocky has been missing from her social media feeds in 2017 with many suspecting it had either died or had been sent to live with Reggie Bush.

And a Chihuahua owned by Kim met an early grave in 2012 when she was killed by a coyote.
